Apparently if you don’t let people see it, it can’t exist. At least that’s the theory that apologists for the occupaton of Palestine enjoy maintaining. Boston Public Library recently reported it’s first ever art theft when some one(s) made off with a photo exhibit created by children from Balata refugee camp in Nablus, West Bank. — Link

Let’s get this straight now; a hate crime is a deed motivated by racial, sexual, or other prejudice. The Anti-Defamation League has been working on hate crimes in the Boston area for some time, dubbing Massachusetts as “the fifth highest in the nation for hate crimes.” Let’s hope they help get to the bottom of this as well.

A Debate: Iraq Veterans Against the War vs. Vets for Freedom
They should really be calling Vets Against the War "Vets for Freedom" and Vets for Freedom "Vets for Tyranny" Why Amy sometimes feels the need to put shills on the radio is beyond me.
RNC Welcoming Committee: Actual protest is reborn in the United States
The folks running the demonstrations at the Republic National Convention are showing us what a protest movement is supposed to look like. Glad to see them in action in Minneapolis. I'm wondering where they were during the DNC in Denver, though.

I used to work here. Vickie and I had our run-ins, but she was from a school of journalism that still believed the media was for something other than simply distracting people. Good luck to her with whatever she plans on doing next.

Whether Obama or McCain wins, the Middle East conflict will carry on as usual
Barack Obama, almost as much a zionist as John McCain, faced light criticism when he announced promised AIPAC that he'd support Israel's entire acquisition of Jerusalem in spite of international law and Israel's official borders based on it's pre-1967 occupation of the Palestinian territories. He's since said what all presidents say, that it's a subject that needs "negotiating." Meanwhile, the GOP voted to consolidate Jerusalem for Israel by moving the US embassy to Israel there, likely on stolen Palestinian land.
