One of the themes in our Summer 2017 edition is our Great Mother Ocean - the gifts she gives us and what we can do to help reduce the pollution that is choking her in many parts of the world. Our featured artist, Tess Felix, shares her story on how she came to transform plastic ocean debris into stunning works of art. Another theme is Sacred Activism and how what is opening within us can manifest change in the outer world and we look at an example of this with women who are working with the homeless in the North of England. We hear about the women involved in the UK's inspirational ecological, arts-based Seed Festival who are working collaboratively to co-create a loving world that flourishes with nature. We have all our usual content on female cycles, including an introduction to making beautiful Moontime mandalas; nature's gifts of foods, nutrition, herbs and nourishment, with a new page on zero waste natural body care; stories, poetry and celebrated women. We look at uniting the genders with the new concept of Humanarchy and how to open to prayer in order to receive 'that which is seeking us.'
The technique is proven and effective. Put a moving, highly effective, propagandistic photo on the front page (or cover) of your story. Cause a moral outrage in the public. Then, several days (or even weeks) later, print a retraction somewhere in the middle of your publication where few will find it: “We regret publishing a picture with a misleading caption.” It works like a charm!
Sometime later, buried, say, on Page 14a of the New York Times (which originally featured the picture), you’d find a short statement. And, of course, there would be no picture to capture your attention. Just a short note saying something like, “Our previous report was not accurate. The baby was killed in Palestinian crossfire and was not the victim of Israeli fire.”
Now, this week, we have two glaring incidents of what appears to be glaring media deception. (Or, at the least, glaring examples of the media wrongly presenting unvetted, grossly misleading information.)
The first came to light Thursday when it was reported that, “Hamas Paid Family To Say IDF Killed 8-Month-Old Baby With Tear Gas. According to the testimony, the baby died of a blood disease.”
We had been hearing reports about this over the last few weeks, with many questioning the accuracy of the claim that a Gazan baby was killed by Israel’s wanton use of tear gas against “peaceful” Palestinian protesters.
Of course, the protesters were anything but peaceful. And even if the tragic report was true, the question is: Why would a mother bring a baby to the frontlines of a dangerous protest? If Israeli forces are so cavalier in their use of force, why bring your child there?
According to the Jerusalem Post, “Hamas Chief Yahya Sinwar paid the al-Ghandour family to say that their 8-month-old baby Leila died of gas inhalation from tear gas used by the IDF during the recent violent protests along the Gaza border, the testimony in an indictment document of their relative Mahmoud Omar revealed on Thursday.”
I should also point out that Sinwar is the same Hamas leader who cried out during these protests, “We will take down Israel’s border and tear out Israeli hearts from their bodies.”
Unfortunately, despite Israeli news outlets reporting the truth behind this baby’s death, what the world will remember for years to come is this: Israelis killed a Palestinian baby in cold blood during the peaceful Gazan protests. That’s the way it works.
The Honduran toddler pictured sobbing in a pink jacket before U.S. President Donald Trump on an upcoming cover of Time magazine was not separated from her mother at the U.S. border, according to a man who says he is the girl's father. … ‘My daughter has become a symbol of the ... separation of children at the U.S. border. She may have even touched President Trump's heart,’ Denis Valera told Reuters in a telephone interview. Valera said the little girl and her mother, Sandra Sanchez, have been detained together in the Texas border town of McAllen, where Sanchez has applied for asylum, and they were not separated after being detained near the border. Honduran deputy foreign minister Nelly Jerez confirmed Valera's version of events.
As a friend of mine wrote to me, “This stuff is completely maddening. I’m sure there are plenty of separated families, but the way you can just show some random photo and the entire world jumps on the bandwagon and gets in an uproar with ZERO explanation or proof of what you're actually looking at is stunning. Talk about being herded like sheep.”
Earlier this week, my wife Nancy asked me to watch some CNN reporting on the separated families. During one audio clip, you heard children crying, “Mommy! Daddy!” But what was the clearly documented context? There was none. For all we know, these kids could have been at a nice restaurant in Texas crying because their parents refused to get them ice cream.
The good news is that we don’t need to wait for the New York Times or Time to publish a retraction weeks later, buried on Page 21. Instead, today, there are many competing news outlets, not to mention the whole of the Internet, ready to pounce and expose.
Every year during the Fourth of July, in a small gated community called Pine Mountain Lake in the Sierra foothills near Groveland, there is a boat parade. The members of the community come up with a theme (one year it was classic TV shows, another it was historical eras) and "weekenders" and residents alike get creative and build scenes and costumes to parade around the lake for hundreds of on-lookers.
My parents have retired to this community so, I've enjoyed watching the parade from a boat for the past few years.
Just a tip: if you'd like to enjoy the boat parade and the rest of the July Fourth festivities, look for rental properties in Pine Mountain Lake on AirBnB or VRBO.
