Israel Sabre Rattles Against Iran to Divert Attention From Home

Israel is using the spectre of an imminent attack on Iran to safeguard the country’s bloated military budget and divert attention from social protest at home.

(TEL AVIV) - Meir Dagan Everybody knows the scene from school: a small boy quarrels with a bigger boy. “Hold me back,” he shouts to his comrades, “before I break his bones!”

Our government seems to be behaving in this way. Every day, via all channels, it shouts that it is going, any minute now, to break the bones of Iran.

Exit Free

From the Book RADICAL PEACE: People Refusing War.

(OLDENBURG, Germany) - Military deserters article I've become a criminal for peace. How I got there is a complicated story, beginning when the community college where I teach reduced most of its humanities faculty to adjunct status.

It saved them a bundle on salaries. We now teach a maximum of three courses per semester, for a really miserable hourly wage with no benefits. They brought in other part-timers to fill the gaps.

Palestinian Youth Will March Today in Gaza

Group demands international protection for flotilla.

(GAZA STRIP ISM) - Palestinian youth will march today in Gaza to demand that the United Nations and international community protect the "Freedom Waves to Gaza" flotilla against Israeli attacks.

Boats Now Sailing to Gaza

If you are an American, call the State Department and the White House- demand that they take immediate action to ensure the safe passage of these boats and to put an end to the siege of Gaza.

(GAZA) - Boats to Gaza Israel and the US outsourced the siege of Gaza to Athens last summer by preventing 8 boats in the Freedom Flotilla 2-Stay Human from sailing from Greek ports to Gaza.

(OAKLAND, Calif.) - Marine Corps Veteran Pierre Fontecha We never go long without hearing of a tragedy affecting a U.S. Marine. Sometimes they're casualties in terrible battles overseas, sometimes they are killed in a hail of gunfire by police in a case of mistaken identity, and sometimes they're victims of police for taking a stand and using their rights as Americans to take a political stand.
