The Fallacy Of Tying The Occupation To Israel’s Security

Author: 

The opposition to the establishment of a Palestinian state by many Israelis is based on national security concerns, which presumably offers a justification for the continuing occupation. The truth is that the occupation itself—not a Palestinian state—poses the gravest danger to Israel’s security

It's the real story.

"I can't be proud unless I'm fortunate enough to marry your friend." My colleague Bikal spoke, kindling a cigarette while he was sitting by the balcony one night. "You're in Kathmandu." Is she going to protect her youth for you here in the village? "I smiled at him and told him."

That's the real story.

The stable mountain of intact pain collapsed. All the leaves fell and the environment was frightening. My friend Gyanu is out of work. The death of his grandmother was unpleasant. Death pulled down the potential right of her life and she left to never come back.

It's the real story. 

Navin left the house. He put on his shoes and hit the street in a hurry. He didn't tell his wife, he was leaving. In the last seven years, he used to go out after breakfast and tea. He always did that after work. Today, however, he rushed out when his wife was busy making tea in the kitchen.

I’ve just read In Search of Monsters to Destroy by Christopher J. Coyne. It’s published by the Independent Institute (which seems dedicated to untaxing the rich, destroying socialism, and so forth). The book begins by citing as influences both peace advocates and rightwing economists.

Israel’s Democracy Is In Peril

Author: 

By all accounts Israel is considered a democratic country, but a close look at its domestic political combustion sadly reveals that Israel’s democracy is in tatters and is tearing at the seams. This is due to the political leaders’ dismal failure to summon their collective resourcefulness and energy to respond to the call of the hour

Get Mad About Nuclear Madness

Author: 

https://worldbeyondwar.org/get-mad-about-nuclear-madness/ By David Swanson, September 24, 2022 Remarks in Seattle on September 24, 2022 at https://abolishnuclearweapons.org I am so sick and tired of wars. I’m ready for peace. What about you? I’m glad to hear it. But pretty much everybody is for peace, even the people who think the surest way to peace is through more wars. They have a peace pole in the Pentagon, after all. I’m pretty sure they ignore it more than worship it, although they do make a lot of human sacrifices for the cause.

Kelly, let me write for you. One day i will share the world the way I met you? <> -Kamala Sarup

Sunset, at your house today.

Tears on my face.

Go on, see how nice you are.

I hope the journey continues alongside the Harrison.

Very emotional journey.

An intuitive, instinctive ability to live.

If I must speak the truth,

Nobody likes the time or life.

Has treated me as you have. How I met you.

The moon was up there. Just the sun shined. And I met you then.

Riotsville

Author: 

By David Swanson https://davidswanson.org/riotsville/ A preview of the film “Riotsville” is here. There’s a good review of the film here, and another here. In the late 1960s, the U.S. military built a fake town called Riotsville (or a fake “inner city” actually) on the Fort Belvoir base in Virginia, and then another at Fort Gordon in Georgia — the same state where the Atlanta police are now working on the construction of an enlarged, updated, high-tech Riotsville commonly called “Cop City.”
