Israel Rules Washington

If there is anyone out there who seriously doubts that it is Israel that is in the driver’s seat when it comes to its relationship with the United States, last week’s filing of criminal charges directed against Hamas’s leadership should be a wake-up call. The seven-count criminal complaint was filed in a federal court in New York City on September 2nd.

Defending Ourselves From Our Own Militarism

“As I said then, I say today, Israel had a right — has a right to defend itself.”

This is militarism set in stone. The words are those of Kamala Harris, of course, in her extensive CNN interview last week – quick words that lead the charge and spew the glory, no matter how blatantly false they are.

Oh, and by the way: “Far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed,”

‘Scholasticide’: Gaza’s Children Are Principal Victims of Israel’s Genocide

The Israeli war on Gaza has become a war on Palestinian children. This was as true on October 7 as it is today.

For generations, teach-ins have combined with direct action to propel movements for peace and social justice.

From the era of the Vietnam War...

To the 1980s struggle to end apartheid in South Africa...

To protests against Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Teach-In Network — to provide resources for activism on and off campuses — to educate and build movements for challenging what Martin Luther King Jr. called “the madnes of militarism.”

2024’s Evil Electoral Underbelly Demands Our Full Activism

Traditionally, Labor Day polls predict November’s presidential outcome.
 
If so, Kamala Harris will narrowly defeat Donald Trump, in both the popular vote and Electoral College.
 
But mainstream polls never account for the evil underbelly of our electoral reality—-organized, well-funded, darkly predictable partisan theft, including the possibility of a coup that would succeed where January 6, 2021 failed.  
 
For that, we need to dig deeper.

Who killed the six hostages in Gaza?

"The six hostages were killed at point blank range a day or two before the army reached the tunnel."
This is an assertion from the IDF who have murdered Israeli captives who were waving a white flag, hollering for help in Hebrew. There is zero independent verification of the claim. Families were apparently not present at autopsies. The claim should be taken with a very large grain of salt. 
 
Facts: there was a firefight in the tunnel between the IOF and Hamas fighters guarding the hostages. After the firefight, 6 Israeli hostages were dead. We know from October 7 and from the IOF killing three escaped Israeli soldiers in December that the IOF has a shoot-first operating policy.
Israeli soldiers likely shot indiscriminately down the tunnel, killing all of the Hamas fighters and the Israeli captive soldier.
 
We have not seen a single credible internationally validated account as what truly happened to the six hostages. 
The Israeli version of the event sound like the 100 raped women and the 40 beheaded babies lies, which was debunked.
