just when it’s needed – an advertisement in today’s LA Times for the John Haywood for President campaign
the title of the ad is “Three Myths – Three Realities
myth numbers 1 & 2 are Low/flat income taxes are good for the economy and Taxes are lower today for most Americans, respectively
it’s myth number 3 that blows my mind. It read as follows: “The United States must pour military aid into and use its veto power at the United Nation in orfer to protect a weak and beleaguered Israel – a country beset and besieged on every side by vicious anti-Semitic enemies.”
Reality: Israel has a powerful and sophisticated military that is fully capable of defending itself. It has used its armed might to occupy foreign terrory, it discriminates against the muslim minority within its borders, and it refuses reform to protect minority rights. It is hatred of our policies, not hatred of our freedoms, that has led to conflict between us and elements of the muslim world. That animosity is well founded. Year after year the United States vetroes U.N. sanctions against Israel that would bring peace and justice.”

here he goes into considerable detail on his position (very progressive) on not only zionism on which he’s amazingly knowledgeable but global warming and much more
if it’s legit (& to me it appears to be), could be what many of us have been hoping for

There is no end to the appeasement that Israel demands of the US and there never will be. When Netanyahu knows he is dealing with a weakling like Obama, who has already abased the US Presidency by his non-stop kowtowing to Zionist pressure, we can be assured that Obama will only show even more capitulation to what is supposed to be a client state.

it was announced at Occupy AIPAC that the United Methodist and Presbyterian churches are on board with BDS.
since the Catholic church has committed so many atrocity and been marginalized due to pedophilia, it is not a player. Who needs ’em anyway.
He agreed to Medea Benjamin’s request for a print copy that will be posted to the Occupy AIPAC website. If I can figure out how to do it, I’ll upload audio.

Chris Hedges’ speech was out of the ballpark.
