The Global Uprising Begins to Take Shape

The choices we make must be rooted in morality, justice, and caring for one another especially the most vulnerable sectors of our society.

(BETHLEHEM) - Watching the tragic unfolding events around the world from starvation in Somalia to rioting in London, we are not feeling vindicated but merely sad and angry.

For a long time many of us said that the increasing chasm between the rich and the poor has grown to obscene levels.

The Wandering Who? is out soon

I can assure you that none of my detractors have read my book yet, but they know what to expect.

(LONDON) - My new book, “The Wandering Who? A Study Of Jewish Identity Politics”, is scheduled for release in six weeks time and it seems that the usual suspects -- Zionists and their collaborators within the marginal 'left' -- are already in a state of panic.

In the last few days, my publishing house, my editors and I have been subjected to immense and intense pressure that included harassment, intimidation, and even anonymous threats, as the demands mounted on my publisher to pull the book.

MIA Tweets in Support of London Rioters

MIA upsets fans with tongue-in-cheek tweet about London riots

(SALEM, Ore.) - MIA has angered some of her fans after a Twitter message suggested she was going to help out the rioters in the UK who are causing major problems. The unrest has now spread to four cities. It all began in Tottenham over the weekend, after a man named Mark Duggan was shot by police.

The riots are now taking place in London boroughs of Clapham, Enfield, Ealing, Peckham, Lewisham and Croydon. Looters have attacked and robbed stores, and there is panic.

They Want Us to Stop Advocating for Palestine

Sumud - be steadfast, trust your instincts and follow your heart when attacks from within take place^[1] .

(SALEM, Ore.) - No required amount of brain energy is needed to reach this conclusion; that Israel wants all of us who write about their apartheid politics to go away, dry up, disappear.

They fear our gritty reports about Palestine that slice right up the middle and expose the guts of the Israeli operation to ethnically cleanse land they have taken and claimed as their own for 63 years.

British Women Tossed in Israeli Prison had Hidden Video Camera

Israeli guards deny water for punishment...

(SALEM, Ore.) - 13 British citizens, along with activists from dozens of other countries, traveled to Israel in July to determine once and for all whether Palestine's West Bank and Golan Heights are actually under a full illegal Israeli siege, like the one in the coastal Gaza Strip.

The unlucky 13 were stopped at Tel Aviv airport and five hours later, they and 120 other people were in a high security prison in Israel.

Dirty Israel

Gaza under attack as Ramadan begins; headlines in Google define ever-preent censorship.

(GAZA / SALEM) - Gaza is under attack on the first day of Ramadan, which is not surprising and very much in keeping with Israeli military habits. Israeli planes bombed the border in the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip.

Glancing at headlines, you read about rockets, defiance and that Israel is proud of its death tools, but you don't learn that on the first day of Ramadan, an important day in the Muslim world, that the Jewish state sees fit to kill people.

Israel`s Latest Battle Against Ken O`Keefe

One of the human race's leading activists addresses baseless allegations that thwarted an Overland Convoy to Gaza.

(SALEM, Ore.) - Our writer Ken O'Keefe, one of the the world's most well known activists for Gaza, is constantly fighting snakes.

Regardless, 'undeterred' still addresses this champion for human beings who suffer under oppressive occupation.

Palestine, Israel, Germany- The Boundaries of Open Discussion

This is a very important conference!!!

(FREIBURG, Germany) - Freedom of speech and expression are recognised by many as primary human rights. However, when it comes to discussion on topics concerning Palestine, Israel and Germany we often face rigid and concrete boundaries that clearly suppress free and creative discourse.

We somehow grasp what we are allowed to say but are also conscious of a variety of thoughts we better keep unsaid.

More Trouble in Murdoch World

So, Murdoch is taking a more proactive approach to stop the bleeding. But will it work? postulates Mike Whitney.

(MELBOURNE) - The Mainstream Press and TV misinformation services in general are doing their best to create the image or the public concept that this is a simple scandal of “hacking” into private and personal affairs, prying, so to speak. It was NOT!

It was a criminal act of warrantless wiretapping telephones in order to get information, an illegal activity punishable by a prison sentence and, in this instance, involving a Newspaper, possible loss of the newspapers license to publish...

Roger Waters` (Pink Floyd) Song for Gaza

New version of "We shall overcome" is a tribute to the suffering in Gaza.

(NEW YORK) - Over the new year 2009-2010, an international group of 1500 men and women from 42 nations went to Egypt to join a Freedom March to Gaza.

They did this to protest the current blockade of Gaza. To protest the fact that the people of Gaza live in a virtual prison. To protest the fact that a year after the terror attack by Israeli armed forces destroyed most of their homes, hospitals, schools, and other public buildings, they have no possibility to rebuild because their borders are closed.
