Life is measured in moments.
MAKE EVERY MOMENT COUNT.

Islam, is it such a great idea to rush
head-long ahead? Yet rushing ahead
characterized Washington's initial
approach — until the policy's dam-
age to U.S. interests became too
apparent to ignore, causing it largely
to be abandoned.
At a time when George W. Bush
arouses such intense vituperation
among his critics, someone who
wishes him well, like me, criticizes
reluctantly. But criticize one must; to
pretend all is well or to remain loyal
to the person despite his record,
does no one a favor. A frank rec-
ognition of mistakes must precede
their repair.
I respect Bush's benign motiva-
tion and good intentions while
mourning his having squandered
a record-breaking 90 percent job-
approval rating following 9-11 and
his bequeathing to the next presi-
dent a polarized electorate, a mili-
tary reluctant to use force against
Iran, Hamas ruling Gaza, an Iraqi
disaster-in-waiting, radical Islam on
the ascendant and unprecedented
levels of global anti-Americanism.
Conservatives have much work
ahead to reconstruct their Middle
East policy. E

The Answer
The news media are not
accurately portraying Israel's
involvement in this low inten-
sity warfare. Israel is obligated
to protect its own citizens and,
while Israel prefers to spare
Palestinian civilians from war-
fare, the Palestinians make this
impossible by using innocents
as human shields in the battle
zones.
