Rain tapering off by eight. Even the fog looks green. Wild garlic plants in the yard are beginning to straighten, heads going up like herons trying to swallow large fish.

The level of repression needed to keep the populace quiet about a genocide funded with its taxes seems to grow every day. Either the genocide ends or democracy in Europe ends

To say globalize the intifada is to say we are joining into the uprising, what has that looked like? Peaceful protests, encampments, social media. Op Eds. It’s a social movement. This isn’t hard to understand at all.

Overcast and cool. In the daylily patch at the base of the walnut tree next to the road, there's a changing of the guard as yesterday's trumpets go limp and today's ease open, orange and buzzing.

The Civil Rights movement never would've gotten off the ground if people in the 50s and 60s thought the way we do today. We'd just be hearing endlessly about the trauma of white women forced to share a lunch counter or water fountain.

So extreme in their devotion to Israeli supremacy and mass murder that they won’t endorse their party’s elected candidate in America’s largest city. How will these people de-radicalize?

Clear, cool, and dry at last. Shadows have sharp outlines; patches of sun in the woods or meadow glow like places apart. A small breeze inhabits the top of the tulip tree, paging through its leaves.

Clear and cool at sunrise. In the holiday-morning silence, a worm-eating warbler's dry rattle in the woods accompanies the catbird singing in the yard and field sparrows in the meadow. A crow. The rumble of a jet.

Since we published our revelations last week, only one UK newspaper has written a single word about it If we had a functioning media, this would have been front-page news Propaganda by omission is establishment media's primary technique for brainwashing in service of the state

Israel is openly planning to force Palestinians into "camps", while the West goes on about Israel's "right to defend itself." Everything that international law was designed to prevent is happening with the active approval of the key states that helped establish the law.
