Will `Nipper` Cameron Obey Tel Aviv` Trumpet or Vote for Palestinian Freedom?

Of course, fluffy American bitches have had their coiffed heads wedged so firmly up Tel Aviv's trumpet for such a long time that it’s worn like a permanent fashion statement over there.

(LONDON) - Britain and NATO were keen as mustard to establish a no-fly zone over Libya to protect civilians but too cowardly to do the same for the Palestinians, who are constantly on the receiving end of Israel's vicious air strikes and armed incursions.

Muslims and Christians alike have been slaughtered or maimed in their thousands and had their homes...

New Ads on BART, Muni, and Cable Cars Call for End to US Military Aid to Israel

Commuters in Oakland, Berkeley, and San Francisco stations will see Israeli and Palestinian grandfathers urging aid cut-off for the sake of peace and justice.

(BERKELEY, Calif.) - Eye-catching ads calling for an end to United States military aid to Israel will greet travelers on Bay Area transit systems beginning today.

Part of a year-old national campaign, the ads depict Israeli and Palestinian grandfathers, each holding a grandchild, calling for an end to the military assistance in the interest of building "peace with equality and justice."

Jewish Parents are Trading Circumcision for Peaceful Covenant Ceremonies

“We must envision a Judaism that can welcome all of our children, nonviolently, into the brit b'lee milah, a covenant without circumcision..." - Miriam Pollack, Circumcision: A Jewish Feminist Perspective

(WASHINGTON D.C.) - More and more Jewish parents in the United States are skipping circumcision.

Instead, they are holding alternative ceremonies sometimes called Bris Shalom or Brit B’lee Milah (covenant without cutting) ceremonies. Many Jews throughout Europe and the former Soviet Union have stopped circumcising over 100 years ago.

Carnage in Norway - Refreshing the Narrative

So let us fight together with Israel, with our Zionist brothers against all anti-Zionists..."
-- Manifesto of Anders Behring Breivik

(TEMPE, Ariz.) - War-making storylines tend to lose their steam. Sustained warfare requires more than just a plausible Evil Doer. A credible narrative is also essential. To remind us who to hate, who better than a murderous Nordic Muslim-hater?

Far-fetched? How many Americans had heard of the Taliban before March 2001 when destruction of the ancient Buddhas at Bamiyan was reported worldwide as a ‘Cultural Holocaust’? Voila! An Evil Doer brand emerged and was soon repackaged as Islamo-fascism.

Israel Attacks Egypt

An Egyptian Army captain is among those killed. Some are speculating that Israel is designing a reason to relaunch attacks on Gaza civilians.

(GAZA CITY / SALEM) - Israeli planes attacked Egyptian soldiers today, at 2:00 p.m. west coast time, killing and injuring several members of the Turkish armed forces. The border in Rafah is closed and our contacts advise things are tense.

The attack launched against the Egyptian soldiers involving multiple Israeli warplanes occurred between Taba and Eilat that killed two Egyptians and there are other injuries.

Music - Agron Belica`s Truth Justice Peace Celebrates Gaza activists Ken O`Keefe and Vittorio Arrigoni

New song Performed and Recorded at Double D Recording Studio honors humanity and its front line fighters.

(SALEM / BOSTON) - This latest video release from Agron Belica's new LP 'Newsic' pays homage and encourages the spirit of resistance for Human Rights.

Truth Justice Peace celebrates the efforts of Ken O'Keefe and Vittorio Arrigoni and the entire Salem-News.com team that constantly generates news and information about the terrible apartheid crimes of the Israeli government against the Palestinian people.

Lies Agreed Upon, But Whose Lies?

A new Sri Lanka government counter documentary is redolent of that curious Rajapaksa mix of cynicism and naivety.

(CHENNAI, India) - ‘Lies Agreed Upon: Sri Lanka Counters Channel 4’ is a faithful reflection of the strengths and weaknesses of its maker – the Rajapaksa administration.

The documentary is at its strongest and most compelling when it deals with the manifold atrocities of the LTTE. The Tiger-crimes need no embellishment; just the bare facts suffice.

Parent Or Child, Who Runs The Show?

Who is running this show?

(CLEVELAND) - In Luke Easter's latest poem, we see how problems our children experience are often our own problems that we hand down to them. It is hard to face, but parents need to raise their level of awareness for the benefit of all.

It truly is hard to hold a child to blame when they are not who buys the family groceries, or establishes the rules that regulate what the do and do not eat and drink. They depend on parents to do the right thing,

With Respect To The `Dossier` on Ken O`Keefe Composed By Mary Rizzo

Contrary to resolution, what Mary's effort accomplishes is continuation of this issue and the taking of sides... Solidarity Lost.

(WINDSOR, N.H.) - A lengthy diatribe composed by Mary Rizzo [12/2010] of Palestine Think Tank (PTT) regarding claims she feels are of major import regarding alleged actions of activist Ken O'Keefe (involved in the Road to Hope convoy of last year that met with numerous obstacles and negative press), is described as a “dossier” by Mary.

In the classic sense, her overdrawn article is anything but a dossier. To some, this may be a minor point but I raise it here to address the issue of clarity and purpose.

A Response To The Transparent Assault Against Ken O`Keefe

Ken is going to survive this bit of nonsense precisely because the people who truly know him will stick with him and those who have or had ulterior motives will drift away.

(WINDSOR, N.H.) - First, and most important in my mind, is that Ken has certainly proven himself as the “genuine” article through all the work he has thus far accomplished with regard to Palestine and for the beautiful Palestinian people.

Anyone who questions this does so with intentionally closed eyes and ears.
