ISRAEL CONTINUES TO BOMBARD GAZA - 01 MAR 08

A fourth day of aerial bombardment by Israeli aircraft is now being backed up now by ground forces making their deepest incursion into Gaza since 2005.

The chief negotiator for the Palestinians says any hope for the peace talks now lies buried in the rubble of Gaza.

More than 80 people - women and children among them - have been killed over the past four days, and international condemnation remains muted.

This crap is allowed to happen because not enough people (you?) are taking action. You need to pass this information to every single person know. Forward this to everyone in your address book TODAY!!! -- ZDN

CAUGHT RED-HANDED!

The Israeli "defense" forces caught these babies red-handed launching rockets at innocent Israeli settlers, so the Israelis had to evidently kill them in "self defense". Today the Israeli "defense" forces destroyed an entire building with the family that lived in it because they traced a 2 day old Palestinian terrorist who had been recruited by Al Qaeda! This is exactly what Israelis tell the world community.. and some people still believe them.

SHAME ON THE SILENT WORLD

“We didn’t know what was happening”….. how many times have we all heard that in reference to the atrocities that occurred in Eastern Europe during the last ‘World War’? There was no internet in those days, hardly a soul had a TV in their home, it’s quite possible they did not know….

Today, there is no excuse. The facts are out there for all to see and hear…. but I still hear nothing but SILENCE…. silence that is killing off an entire nation…

Some are praying for peace….

Others are singing for peace….

But most are remaining silent….

Read the report below …. it might get you to DO SOMETHING!

LETTER FROM GAZA: SORRY, AMJAD, THAT WE COULD DO NOTHING TO HELP YOU

I'm calling on you in this moment while the Gaza Strip where I'm living is under attack by the Israeli occupation forces. They are showing no mercy; killing children, our beautiful youth and women. Sixty Palestinians were killed since Wednesday, the youngest of whom was six months old.

JOINT STATEMENT AGAINST THE ISRAELI AIRSTRIKES ON THE GAZA STRIP

This bombardment is part of ongoing attacks on the Gaza Strip: over the last 24 hours, there have been over 15 people killed (including at least three children) over 30 people injured (including several children) in over 25 Israeli air strikes and artillery strikes. One of the artillery strikes hit a crowd of children playing football near a wedding hall in the Jabalia refugee camp, killing two children and injuring five.

GAZA STRIP IS SUFFERING - NEED ACTIONS - NOT TALKS

The Israelis have re- invaded the Gaza Strip,Palestinian territories, with a massive number of ground troops in tanks and panzer's.From air the Israelis are launching missiles and rockets,Israelis in helicopters are aiming heavy machine guns targeting the unprotected residents and their homes.The Israelis high tech weaponry does not distinct between, the courageous members of the Palestinian resistance,members of the Gaza Strip Police-Force,other official public servants, civilians, children, public school or university buildings, handicap centers or medical clinics, ambulances,private homes or religious sites.

EXAMPLES OF HATE SPEECH

4. "The Palestinians" would be crushed like grasshoppers ... heads smashed against the boulders and walls." " Isreali Prime Minister (at the time) in a speech to Jewish settlers New York Times April 1, 1988

THE VOICE OF THE WHITE HOUSE

I wonder why no one ever talks about the Great Armenian Holocaust of 1916? Many, many more Christian Armenians were butchered by the Muslim Turks than Jews died during WW II but we never see any mention of this well-proven slaughter. Why? Because Israel is friendly with the Turks who do not want anyone daring to mention their nastiness and since the Jews own all the media in America today, we see nothing.

ADEL SAMARA - A GLOBAL MASSACRE AGAINST GAZA

The debate on whether Israel will launch a large scale or “limited” aggression against Gaza is pure nonsense and meaningless. Any “limited” aggression against civilians, by an army with most recent US inventions of war machine and Zionist inhuman behavior, will kill many people.

WAR IS PEACE?

PM Olmert to Cabinet: “Striking at Hamas increases chance for peace.”

THE NEW YORK TIMES ATTEMPTS TO REDEEM ITSELF

The same reporter that wrote the the article below referred to the breaking the wall down incidents a few months ago as a ’shopping spree’. The sentiments in that article and others regarding the situation were misleading and harmful to the plight of the Palestinian people. The breaking down of the wall was more than a shopping spree. Yes, the opportunity was taken to stock up on essentials like FOOD while in Egypt, but it was an exercise in FREEDOM… and an attempt to get the attention of the world . Instead, the western press, the Times included, had reports of Palestinians stocking up on cigarettes and Coca Cola… poking fun at a very desperate situation.

ERSATZ ISRAEL; MURDER MOST FOUL IN GAZA

You have to wonder why all of those rockets being fired at Israel never seem to hit anyone and when they do it’s usually a minor injury. 'They' say hundreds and hundreds of rockets are raining down on Israel. They keep landing in empty lots. Now, if Israel were responsible for a number of these rocket attacks, the reason probably is that you can never have peace as long as you can attack yourself while appearing to be the other guy and that’s what Ersatz Israel is all about.

U.N. CHIEF CONDEMNS ISRAEL AFTER GAZA CLASH

GAZA (Reuters) - U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned Israel for using "excessive" force in the Gaza Strip and demanded a halt to its offensive after troops killed 61 people on the bloodiest day for Palestinians since the 1980s.

OVER 55 KILLED IN ISRAELI ATTACKS IN GAZA

Attacks by Israeli forces killed over 55 Palestinians on Saturday as fighting intensified in northern Gaza, prompting Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to call the incursion “more than a holocaust.”

BUSH MOVES TO SHIELD TELECOMMUNICATIONS FIRMS

Nearly 40 lawsuits, consolidated into five groups, are pending before a San Francisco judge. The various plaintiffs, a mix of nonprofit civil liberties advocates and private attorneys, are seeking to prove that the Bush administration engaged in illegal massive surveillance of Americans' e-mails and phone calls after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and to show that major phone companies illegally aided the surveillance, including the disclosure of customers' call records.

PAUL WOULD UPHOLD CONSTITUTION

I am a supporter of Ron Paul and his radical plans to do the unthinkable: uphold the Constitution. As president he would reduce the size and scope of the federal government, returning power to the state and local level. This is extraordinarily important. At a time when we have a $9 trillion deficit (not including Social Security and Medicare), his economic plan actually reduces spending by $150 billion a year while every other candidate has plans to increase spending.

Woods says that he has never seen a case with so "many red flags pointing to injustice."

BANK FAILURES? NO BIG DEAL, SAYS CNN

Banking experts say there is one thing that will save your money if your bank goes under. That’s FDIC insurance. "It’s the gold standard," says banking consultant Bert Ely. "The FDIC has ample resources. It’s never been an issue," he says.

That’s fascinating, because last I checked (about five minutes ago), the FDIC had in its assets about 1.2% of the deposits it claims to "insure".

ADIB S KAWAR - OPEN LETTER TO BARAK OBAMA

Dear Senator Obama,

We Palestinians, whether in Palestine that was occupied in 1948, or Palestine that was occupied in 1967 and in our diaspora/Ashatat counting now over ten million uprooted people, were shocked and saddened to read your letter addressed to Mr. Khalilzad, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. We were shocked and astonished that you, especially as a U.S. citizen of African roots, would not have remembered the stance of the Zionist state of Israel during the uprising/Intifadah of the non-white people in South Africa. Those men and women, who are a part of the indigenous population of the continent where your roots are still deep in its soil, were not supported in their struggle by Israel. In fact, this rogue state was one of the very few countries in the world to ally itself and supply the apartheid colonizing establishment in South Africa with all its requirements of arms and weapons to maintain its apartheid regime, so that it could fight and subjugate the revolting citizens of the colony, who only sought to obtain equal rights in the place of their birth.

We were astonished to read that you support the apartheid state by saying "Israel has the right to respond".

Has it not occurred to you, Mr. Senator, why the indigenous population of Palestine have been uprising for so many decades, and suffering the death of thousands and thousands of their men and women of all ages including the very young and very old, who are living in refugee camps away from their own homes and land that they had been developing with sweat and blood for thousands of years? We are saddened that a man of your caliber who promotes the rights of the subjugated masses in your great nation, the United States, and everywhere in the world, who condemns the Bush regime because of the wars it is waging around the world resulting in thousands of deaths, with its maimed men and women serving in your nation's armed forces away from their homes and beloved ones expresses such opinions regarding our people. You are aware of the millions of deaths, the men, women and children who have become disabled, and the other millions of individuals who have been uprooted and are living in the status of poor refugees in and out of their homelands as a result of these criminal wars?

Mr. Senator Obama, how is it possible that a personality of your status, caliber and intelligence has missed to read, see and hear the news of how Palestinians in occupied Palestine are treated like slaves if not animals, which is by far worse than the way enslaved Africans were treated for centuries by the American colonizers? Did you read, hear or see how those Palestinians are tortured and dehumanized on the over 750 checkpoints and crossings all over the occupied West Bank of Palestine? Did you hear, read or see how barbaric Zionist colonizers are still stealing more and more Palestinian land to build more Zionist colonies over what remained unoccupied and un-stolen of Palestinian Arab land, and how these wild racist colonialists are cutting down millions of centuries’ old olive trees, razing thousands of acres of farmland, demolishing thousands of residential, office and industrial buildings and leaving thousands of people living in the open air or tents in the heat of the summer or the freezing cold of the winter? We doubt that you don't have the courage to admit that you have heard, seen or read about the apartheid wall that Zionists unashamedly call "security wall" while the main reason is to steal more land in the 22% left of Palestine unoccupied in 1948, and let's not forget the stealing of fresh water resources to be used by Zionist colonialists to be pumped back out of their sewage system as filth and flooded over the fields of the poor Palestinians who have not been colonized yet?! And you turned your face away pretending not to have seen, heard or read about all that and many and many other war crimes the Zionist state of Israel that had been denying Palestinian Arabs to exercise their Right of Return to their stolen homes and land!!!!

It would be a shame if a man of your caliber and status does deny seeing, hearing and reading all about these atrocities against a people that belongs to the human race in the twentieth century, only because he might gain the blessings of the Zionist Israeli lobby, to be elected as president of the United States, while knowing well that those who control the possibilities and means shall put all the barriers and checkpoints in your way to deprive you of this pleasure.

Mr. Obama, have the courage to include among the causes you fight for to admit that Palestinian Arab resistance are the people who are fighting in self defense and not the other way round.

Palestinian resistance, by international legal rules, is accorded every right to use any means to regain all their rights in their land and as human beings, and live in a democratic, free and sovereign state.

Sincerely,

Adib S. Kawar

A thousand songs I shall play for you

OFFICIAL CONSPIRACY THEORY CALLED 'DOGMA OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS'

I am referring, of course, to gullible folk whose ancestors most certainly burned witches in Europe and hanged them at Salem.

THE POWER ELITE PLAYBOOK, GOVERNMENT BY GUNPOINT PART 10

America’s long-term foreign policy, including passive and/or aggressive regime change, is driven by corporate greed. Trade agreements or “reciprocity treaties” (tariff-free trade akin to economic annexation or the creation of American protectorates) always favor business. These obligatory contracts generally include the exclusive right to extract resources, sell products, and maintain commercial properties and military bases despite the justifiable objections of the native populations. [i] Though foreign interventions became even more frequent after the creation of the CIA, they began over a century ago.

GAZA: WHERE THE CHILDREN ARE FORBIDDEN HAPPINESS

Gaza City– On February 23, 2008, three Palestinian men picnicking in a field in the northern Gaza Strip were killed Saturday by an Israeli tank missile. The Israeli military confirmed the cross-border attack near the city of Beit Hanoun but claimed it targeted Palestinian militants on their way to fire mortar shells at Israel. Israel frequently carries out missile strikes and raids against militants in the the Gaza Strip believing this will end the near-daily rocket fire, which has killed 12 Israelis in the last seven years. According to B'Tselem, an Israeli human rights group Israeli missiles have killed 137 Palestinians in Gaza last year, 28 were civilians and since January, 79 were killed by the Israeli military.

JOHN MCCAIN'S CHART-TOPPING SINGLE "BOMB IRAN"

There is no issue more serious then the continued militarization of our country and our culture. We have seen this and exposed this from Uncovered to Iraq for Sale to Fox Attacks Iran.

But right now, we want to call attention to someone who not only embraces the song of war, he literally sings it!

The mainstream press is absorbed in the presidential race—the latest poll numbers, the in-fighting between Obama and Clinton—while we seek to expose the true story humming just beneath the surface (yes, this calls for some major puns in a matter very serious... sometimes satire can be the most effective way to reach people).

Let everyone see firsthand (with a little help from our composers) that the senator embraces war in a dangerous and irresponsible manner.
