Gaza was among the main topics on the agenda of Russian President Vladimir Putin as he arrived in the Middle East region on Wednesday, December 6.

The December Free Press Second Saturday Salon was held on December 9 over Zoom.

Listen to the recording here.

Mark Stansbery of the Free Press Board, introduced the speake Vina Colley. She related to us how she used to work at the Piketon Gaseous Diffusion Plant. She found that workers there, including herself, were not protected from radiation while at work. She complained about it and began to be suppressed by her employer.

On an aquifer, the plant has been contaminating the Ohio River in addition to the workers, the surrounding community, and several schools – one that was shut down because so many children had died. It is a cancer cluster and Vina herself has many physical problems as a result of her job. Also affected are the Scioto River, the Beaver Creeks, and many external sites.

Saturday, December 9, 7-8pm, this event will be occurring via Zoom

Theme: Corruption, radiation, and death

Vina Colley will speak about her experience as a worker at the Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion plant in Piketon, Ohio, and her work for nearly three decades to expose the alleged radioactive contamination and cover-ups at the plant.

A “question-and-answer” period will be included.

WSYX ABC 6 broke a story today claiming “Court docs accuse Columbus mayor of pressuring judge to shutdown Greyhound Barons bus terminal.” https://abc6onyourside.com/news/local/columbus-ohio-mayor-accused-of-ex-parte-conversations-with-judge-central-ohio-elected-offical-greyhound-baron-bus-terminal-case.

Ginther and his administration believe they are outside of the law and permitted to influence judges as they please. This is just one more proven example of corruption that runs rampant at City Hall and why I campaigned to create an Office of Anti-Corruption if elected.

On Friday December 1st active Israeli combat operations resumed directed against Gaza after a one week “pause” to exchange hostages and prisoners. It should surprise no one to learn that Israel’s ultimate objective in its sustained war crime directed against Gaza is to kill and/or drive out its 2.3 million Palestinian inhabitants. The adopted policy, which has been revealed through a top level Israeli intelligence document relating to options for operations in Gaza that was leaked to the media, “…recommends a full population transfer as its preferred course of action. …” to include “the evacuation of the civilian population from Gaza to Sinai.” And Israel should “Make It Clear [to the refugees that] there Is No Hope of Returning [home]” with the final objective being “wiping Gaza off the map.”
