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.

"All I can say is it’s over 110".

(SOMERDALE, N.J.) - I’ve known this Marine since he was in grade school.

He’s married now, father of a young boy, deployed with the Marines in Afghanistan, his unit or the place of deployment in-country are not disclosed for obvious reasons.

Getting accountability is the first step to resolve the Agent Orange issue

The Agent Orange Equity Bill of 2009 was never enacted, as politicians stonewalled the issue. Let us fight for and pray HR 812, The Agent Orange Act of 2011, makes it through this time.

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - The letters keep coming and I am just one small platform taking on the issue of Agent Orange. I would hate to even venture a guess as to how many people have been affected world-wide with the AO problem.

My last article covered how toxins in general disrupt the immune system allowing cancers and other diseases to proliferate. Let’s go a bit further…

Ground Penetrating Technology Used to Locate Agent Orange Drums

Ground penetrating technology is being used to locate buried Agent Orange drums at Camp Carroll, Korea. The same technology could be used to find TCE/PCE drums buried at former MCAS El Toro.

Where are all these supposedly great American servants who “promised us the moon” when we enlisted, and are now finding every way in the book to back away from those promises?

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - Let us get back to the Agent Orange problem and the plight of many veterans.

Since my first article on Agent Orange appeared in Veterans Today, and other Internet news sites, I have been receiving direct correspondence from those who have had to deal with getting the VA to recognize their plight.

For the Record... Declaration of Cultural Revolutionaries

The unofficial rules that guide brave minds in action for the betterment of mankind.

(SALEM, Ore.) - The world is ever evolving, but the highly unnatural militant direction man has chosen is wrong so often that there are few examples of it being right.

The greed of man that has led to so much contamination and desecration of Mother Earth is not always monetary; sometimes it is based on jealousy, sometimes it is racism, sometimes it is religion, sometimes it is a combination of all of these and more.
