Welcome Clark. I see really quite significant changes taking place in the world, most notably with the AIIB and the founding of the BRICS bank, plus the opening of the Eurasian rail link that avoids the high seas that the US control.
For me these are the real tectonic shifts taking place.
On Israel, my guess is that Netanyahu so pissed off Obama for addressing Congress, that he's going to make the him and Israel pay dearly for the arrogance of it. I'm not sure, yet anyway, if this amounts to anything more than one US Administrations position and I wonder what will happen after Obama has served his second term. I expect that the next Administration will go back to the Israel as usual position of all prior Admins. Hopefully not, but quite likely bearing in mind what a death grip the Neocons have on the US political and media landscape.
But my fingers are crossed...

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
