Glenn Beck Promotes Freedom of Palestine - Cites Israel`s Human Rights Abuse

Beck promotes new 'Free Palestine' video; discusses "End of Israel".

(SALEM, Ore.) - Glenn Beck is promoting the new song, Freedom for Palestine before it has even been released. The song by a gathering of artists, in Beck's words, "Calls for the West Bank security barrier to be toppled, it calls for human rights and justice for all."

The talk show host added that the song is, "truly amazing".

Revisiting The Gates Of Rafah

Whatever the forces behind the apparent back tracking, the people of Palestine are, yet again, held hostage to politics not of their making.

(WINDSOR, N.H.) - Last weekend, the interim Egyptian military government opened the border gates at Rafah a little wider allowing greatly improved entrance and exit for the people of Gaza.

For the past several years, Palestinians wishing to go to school or obtain medical care unavailable in Gaza have been out of luck.

Who Cares in the Middle East What Obama Says?

Monday's Robert Fisk article from "The Independent"

(LONDON) - This month, in the Middle East, has seen the unmaking of the President of the United States.

Libya`s Revolution and the Open Air Market

Like the worst plot lines of a thousand Hollywood “B” war flicks all crunched together on a single reel and running on fast forward.

(WINDSOR, N.H.) - When Libya announced its “revolution” I was excited.

Not only would this nation join in the Arab Spring, further promoting the fervor for freedom in that region, it signaled a coming end to the reign of one of the world's most schizophrenic despots and a possible end to the stranglehold plans of the oil elite.

I Have a Dream

Shouldn't everyone have a chance to reach theirs?

(LONDON) - No human beings should ever be exposed to military and political violence.

The idea of children bearing witness to man's hardest and cruelest side is unbearable as a thought.

`I Was Wrong to Oppose Military Intervention in Libya Wrong, Wrong, Wrong`

Yvonne Ridley explains from Benghazi in eastern Libya why she was wrong to oppose Western intervention in Libya, which she now accepts was necessary to avoid the bloodbath Libyan mafia chief Muammar Gaddafi had planned for Libyans for daring to rise up against him.

(BENGHAZI, Libya ) - Just a few weeks ago I stood on a public platform and vigorously slammed proposals for Western military intervention in Libya.

Satisfying the Zionists: Obama`s First Priority

No politician with an anti-Zionist mindset could ever dream of living in the White House.

(TEHRAN) - Barack Obama deceitfully convinced the world that the United States under his presidency would start a new era of dialogue and friendship with the oppressed nations.

Everyone realized they were shrewdly tricked by the "snowman of change" as soon as he made his first trip to Israel and announced his sincerest commitment to their security.

Who Directs our Mideast Policies?

I have written to both my US senators asking them what terrible fate they believe would befall them if they ever disobeyed an order from AIPAC.

(RICHMOND, R.I.) - The civilized world was horrified in January 2009 as Israel attacked 1.5 million Palestinian men, women and children in Gaza. The borders of that small strip of land were (and still are) fenced and guarded by Israelis so that residents could not escape the bombardment.

Israeli tanks, planes, helicopters and drones dropped white phosphorus, cluster bombs and other US -supplied terror weapons on the helpless people.

We Americans, Bahrain and Syria

This update on the bloodshed in Bahrain and Syria is also a tribute to all of the world's Revolutionaries and Freedom Fighters.

(SALEM, Ore.) - People in America are proud, sometimes tough as nails, but they don't know a lot about the type of bravery found in the hearts of Revolutionaries, like those currently being slain by government forces in Bahrain.

A threat to the status quo, they are always branded as something they are not, these men and women who, like Thomas Jefferson and Paul Revere, are willing to go all the way for their ideals.

The Machiavellian Mind of the United States

A nail in the coffin for those who still believe we have noble intentions of spreading democracy to the Middle East.

(JAMESTOWN, R.I.) - There are two very important current occurrences in the news, one is Libya and the other is Syria; both of which could prove deadly for the US.

Two weeks ago Obama, the smooth talking car salesman, delivered his statement of purpose regarding Libya. He said little about our purpose but did much by giving the green light to arming the Libyan rebels.
