Loving the Libel, The problem is those who love the libel

Loving the Libel

The central claim of the Goldstone report is that Israel intentionally killed civilians. Killing for the sake of killing. There’s a lot of nonsense in the report’s nearly 600 pages. But in my opinion it was not by chance that this claim received the most publicity.

How would one test for such intentions? There are many methods. One, for example could be the test of proportionality. If for instance in a particular battle a thousand civilians were killed together with ten combatants, there would be serious suspicion that the operational goal was the killing of civilians, rather than combatants. Collective punishment. This is what the Goldstone report claims.

Goldstone retracted. “If I had known then what I know now, the Goldstone Report would have been a different document” wrote Goldstone two weeks ago, causing uproar. Let’s ignore Goldstone for a moment. Thousands of articles have been written attempting to analyse the recesses of his mind. It’s difficult to forgive him for creating the libel. Even so, he deserves our forgiveness. He retracted. The problem is those who love the libel. They’re not moved. Such are Goldstone’s fellow committee members, who released a statement yesterday, in their favourite paper, Britain’s Guardian. The paper that will continue to propagate the report’s libels.

Time after time, reporters would ask Goldstone about Israel’s killing of civilians, in comparison to, for example, that of the U.S. army. Initially he would answer, as he did for example to Channel Two’s Yonit Levy, “I have not investigated the US army”. A reasonable answer. Only few weeks later, the same Goldstone responded to PBS’s Bill Moyers that “The US army gone to extremes to protect innocent civilians”. It would seem that in the intervening period he managed to conduct an investigation, without anybody hearing about it.

Seriously, it’s clear that Goldstone doesn’t have a clue. He was requested to provide Israel’s head on a platter, to announce that Israel was a terrible monster - and that’s what he did. His fellow committee members and a group of useful idiots from Israel and the world aided him in the concoction of the libel. Not all of their claims are false. But when cases on a micro level are taken and inflated to monstrous proportions the conclusion will be that Israel is a monster.

The Major Pilates Exercises
by Richard Jones

The fundamental Pilates Method exercises were developed to initially warm up the performer and ready the body for additional rigorous Pilates exercises in the routine while teaching the exerciser about body awareness. When performers embark on the fundamental Pilates exercises, one is required to utilize the body's natural pelvic area and abdominal area often. The performer should rid his thoughts of everyday stresses and concentrate on the deep breathing patterns in Pilates. Throughout the period of the exercises, the performer should be conscious of his shoulders, pushing the shoulders downward while lifting his arms to stabilize the pelvis area. In order to achieve the greatest effects in one's pelvic stability and additional body knowledge, presented are small number of the fundamental Pilates exercises:

Global Outsourcing: Not A One-Way Street From U.S. by John Parker

Several outsourcing industry deals last week show that the world of business technology is indeed getting flatter-but also that tech globalization is a multidimensional thoroughfare, not a one-way street out of the United States.

The biggest deal is Wipro Technologies' $600 million acquisition of Leonia, N.J.-based Infocrossing, planting the huge Indian outsourcer firmly on U.S. soil, complete with expansion and hiring plans. Infocrossing operates five data centers in the United States, providing hosted and managed IT services. As Wipro extends its U.S. footprint, including opening software development centers in Atlanta and three other cities, the company says it's looking to hire hundreds of Americans with associate's degrees in tech-related fields, train them, and pay for the best to earn bachelor's degrees in technology-much like it does with tens of thousands of locals back home.

It's by no means a U.S. hiring spree for Wipro, whose employees in the States are mostly Indian nationals, notes senior writer Marianne Kolbasuk McGee in our cover story this week. But it's at least a sign of long-term investment in the domestic market.

And those expansion and hiring plans aren't just opportunistic PR for an offshore company (and industry) that strikes fear into the hearts and minds of the American IT rank and file. They're also smart business, as Wipro appeals to U.S. customers as a full-service IT outsourcer rather than a bit player that merely picks off low-hanging business and ships it back to India. Before it had U.S. data center and development operations, Wipro was probably a legitimate option for two in 10 U.S. companies, says Dean Davison of consulting firm NeoIT, while now it'll be an option for seven of 10 companies.
