CNN claims Trump told many lies and Harris just one. Yet, CNN did not
mention that Harris repeated that Hamas killed 1200 Israelis on 7 October
and that they raped women. Both not true (see ongaza.org for evidence). Why
do politicians lie? They are bought (see https://www.boughtbyzionism.org/)
or blackmailed to do so. But a new Poll Suggests Gaza Ceasefire and Arms
Embargo Would Help Democrats with Swing State Voters

When asked why his latest map has erased the whole of the West Bank, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu retorted with the most detestable answer. 

 “I didn’t include the Dead Sea. It’s not shown on the map. I didn’t show the Jordan River. It’s not on this map. I didn’t show the Sea of Galilee,” was Netanyahu's response. 

 The Israeli leader must have known that neither the indigenous population of Palestine, nor the occupied territories of West Bank and East Jerusalem - which are recognized as such under international law - are topographical or geographical phenomena.

From Win Without War
Students across the country are heading back to school — and that means they’re facing the threat of gun violence.  On September 4, Apalachee High School was added to an ever-growing list of mass shootings in the United States. Four people were killed, and nine others hospitalized. The suspect is just 14 years old.  The venues of these shootings have varied: Houses of worship, movie theaters, grocery stores, schools, nightclubs. But one thing they often have in common? The gun used to commit the violence is an assault weapon.

The gun lobby would love for us to think it’s impossible, but with champions in Congress and the White House on our side, there is a real chance we will win. There’s already legislation in Congress — the Assault Weapons Ban of 2023 (S.25/H.R.698) — waiting to be passed. One of the simplest, biggest things you can do right now to make that happen? Show up and speak out today.
