Reprise on Palestine, Israel and America: A Strategic Void

(JACKSON, Miss.) - I’ve had a more diffuse and sometimes different reaction to the original article on this topic than I anticipated, although one I thought possible.

And while I don’t usually respond other than with brief replies to individual comments, I thought it useful at this point to address certain issues, both to encourage some to re-read the initial article, and to “clear the conceptual decks” before the second and third parts of the trilogy appear.

Celebrities Combating Poverty

In order to act out solidarity, one must have firm determination: to give up at one’s own interest in the name of the common good.

Is this Government representing we the people of this republic; or are we being led by tools for and of Zionism?

(CLERMONT, Fla.) - Last week Chairwoman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen swooned, “I love John Bolton” after Bolton informed the Committee:

“I’ve argued for [military strikes against Iran] for about three and a half years. Absent military action against Iran’s nuclear weapons program, Iran will have weapons much sooner rather than later. It’s a big mistake to conclude, as I believe the Administration has, that a nuclear Iran can be contained and deterred.”

New Slogan Makes Showing
Screw America, I Stand by Israel

How Does it Feel? Poor Dylan had it so hard as a young American, let me get out the Kleenex box so we can all cry about it for a while.

(SALEM, Ore.) - Dylan questioned, "How does it feel, to be on your own, like a complete unknown... like a rolling stone". I wonder how kids in Palestine would react to this song, would they even understand?

The Death of American Democracy (VIDEO)

This could be the most important video Americans ever watch...

(BANGKOK) - The collapses of the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre, on September 11, 2001, were the most frightening images that I have ever seen.

Fighting ethnic cleansing in Israel requires creative approaches.

(GAZA CITY) - As the launch of the Freedom Flotilla – Stay Human approaches, increasing numbers of Zionist officials and commentators illuminate the depths of their moral and intellectual bankruptcy by arguing that it is a political – not humanitarian – project.

Like its predecessors, from the successful Free Gaza boats of 2008 to the Freedom Flotilla that suffered lethal violence by Israeli commandos in international waters last year, this Flotilla is an unabashed act of solidarity with a people fighting colonialism, ethnic cleansing, and apartheid.
