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.

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.

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.

Statehood: Palestinians Must Show they Mean Business Two-prong Approach Needed

For how much longer will Zionist Washington rule the UN roost?

(LONDON) - It is time for the Palestinians to pursue a two-pronged strategy: on the one hand bid for UN recognition of their statehood because they must have “equal rank to Israelis within the international community and a level playing field”.

This, while developing and expanding boycott, divestment and sanctions to neutralize the "enemy within" our Western parliamentary structures and media.

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.

The Fall of a Dictatorship Requires Sacrifices

The question of Rwandan refugees and the application of cessation close is a serious matter of concern.

(BRUSSELS) - Over the weekend of July 30th and 31st there was a joint meeting between the FDU-INKINGI and the Rwandan National Congress in Brussels.

This joint meeting was to discuss a number of topic related to the stability within Rwanda and to have attendees speak and learn from the speakers on issues related to the Rwandan community in Europe.

Canada: Stop Training Militia Members for Rwanda

The Rwandese Patriotic Front (RPF) has re-established a one-party, authoritarian system of government that is even more repressive than the government that was in power prior to the genocide.

(KIGALI, Rwanda) - We, the members of the Rwanda National Congress (RNC), hereby petition the Government of Canada and the Council of Gatineau City to cancel a program of the Government of Rwanda to recruit Canadian citizens and Rwandans living in Canada into a Rwandan militia group and provide indoctrination and military training to the group in Gatineau city.

The training of the ‘Intore’ militia is scheduled to take place from August 4th to August 8th, 2011...

End Game for Benghazi Rebels as Libyan Tribes Prepare to Weigh In?

The latest from war torn Libya.

(TRIPOLI) - On July 30, the day before this 97.5 per cent Muslim country began the holy month of Ramadan, NATO spokesperson Roland Lavoie has been lamely attempting to explain to the press at the Rixos Hotel and internationally, why NATO was forced to bomb three Tripoli TV towers at the Libyan Broadcasting Authority, killing three journalists/technicians and wounding 15 others.

Like most people currently in central Tripoli, this observer was awakened at 1:50 a.m. by the first of a series of nine blasts...

The Norway Manifesto: A New Bin Laden Is Born (Video)

“The Norway massacre: Is it a coincidence, is it another 9/11 or is it something that has been brewing for years now and nobody took notice of or saw it coming?” “The termination of Bin Laden was not the end of this madness; rather it was only the beginning.”

(ALEXANDRIA, Egypt) - Is it a coincidence that the Norway attacks came after almost ten years have passed since the similarly horrific attacks on the towers of the world trade center in new York back in 2001 or what has been known in contemporary history as the 9/11 attacks.

As the world was getting prepared to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the New York attacks and as the world was recovering from the 9/11 trauma and about to leave its heavy and gloomy memories behind and never look back again we wake up to this painfully reminder of 9/11.

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.
