Thanks Tulsi!!! This is like a time-warp to the 1950s--oops, 1960s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2001 Afghanistan, 2003 Iraq-- the US helping overthrow governments.
Pretty pitiful in face of 9000 Dead Palestinians including nearly 4000 kids, the best the senators could do is a "cessation of hostilities" Amid Public Outcry Over Gaza Carnage, 13 Senators Call for 'Cessation of Hostilities'
Me too, I'm older than the State of Israel by 2 years! And what Israel is doing Palestinians must stop!! End the Israeli blockade, occupation & illegal settlements..and rockets will end.

"I am older than the state of Israel," she told Democracy Now! "That's why we're here, to say 'not in our name.'"
Have you read anything about Julian Assange's extradition hearing in the UK? If not, here's why!!
Reporters Claim Facebook is Censoring Information on Julian Assange Case
History of Israel attacks on Gaza since 2001 !
From 2009 through October 6, 2023, 4,419 Palestinians & 145 Israelis have been killed in the occupation and blockade.
Since October 7 - 30, 2023, 8,300 Palestinians (3,300 kids), 1400 Israelis & 328 from other nations killed.
New York Times hatchet job on independent investigative journalist Ben Norton with whom many of us have worked over the years-& have said exactly what he has said about the US sponsored coup in Ukraine in 2014.
NO TRUST NAVY ! NAVY LIES! Navy challenging emergency order to take jet fuel out of leaking 80-year-old storage tanks that have contaminated drinking water of 93,000 in Honolulu already--many of its own military families!!!!!
When Chelsea Manning AKA Bradley Manning sent WikiLeaks the video of the USArmy helicopter crew shooting up/murdering the Reuters news team in Baghdad that began a ten year saga with both Chelsea & Journalism in some sort of imprisonment for the past 7 years
In this special online event we’ll be discussing the global political impact of one of the greatest journalistic coups of this century: the release of the cockpit video of US troops shooting down journalists and innocent civilians in Iraq.
#DontExtraditeAssange
The drain is sending the "treated" water straight out into the Kapilina lagoon - that of course empties out directly into the sea. If the water is safe after being run through this system, why do these hastily-made signs warn to "AVOID CONTACT WITH WATER"?
Shut Down Red Hill jet fuel tanks!!! Thanks to the great sign wavers from the Okinawa community on Oahu!! Okinawa also has US military contamination!

Please read our full page letter in the New York Times --"The US Should Be a Force for PEACE !!!"
I was honored to be one of several members of Veterans For Peace who are signatories of the letter.
4.5 million Palestinians live under occupation, with no rights, victims of dehumanisation, checkpoints, settler violence, brutalisation, military courts, and no vote. Their occupier, Israel, is what Europe, with a straight face, calls "the only democracy in the Middle East."

Wow! Great solidarity with Oahu Water Protectors as Navy contaminates drinking water from massive leaking jet fuel tanks located 100 feet above our aquifer!!!

One barbaric attack included 160 jetfighters attacking for >40 minutes in the very northern areas of the Gaza Strip, accompanied by artillery shelling (500 shells) - Dr Abu Jamei, Dir. Gen. of Gaza Community Mental Health Programme.
I was to have been in this delegation, but the Egyptian government refused to let me into the country...no reason given, but I, and many others, have gone through Egypt to get to Gaza! CEASEFIRE NOW! STOP THE KILLING !!!

It’s been a terrible nine months being around so many hundreds of US Congresspeople who think the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza is OK and US complicity in the genocide is just fine!!!
For the past nine months, we have tirelessly walked the halls of Congress, urging our representatives to adhere to both our own laws and international law. We demand decency, morality, and compassion—no more weapons to the Israeli government for the horrific slaughter we've

This interaction and her history of inaction on Red Hill reveal where Sen. Mazie Hirono’s deepest concerns truly lie: with her top campaign contributors, which include Military defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, BAE Systems, Northrop Grumman and NAVATEK.

The US Navy, as we predicted the moment they said they'd 'comply' with the Emergency Order, just announced their plan to APPEAL the Order to defuel the Red Hill tanks just 2 Days before the Feb. 2nd deadline. Soon, they'll have all of Hawai‘i against them. We'll make sure of it.
On this day, 56 years ago, Muhammad Ali was convicted for refusing to join the military and support the US empire. That same day, Congress voted to extend the draft 4 more years.
Excellent article about this summer's Gaza Flotilla Northern European voyage to 10 ports.
The Gaza Flotilla will sail in the summer of 2024 to the Mediterranean with stops at many ports
before sailing on to Gaza!!! Sailing for solidarity with Gaza

Remarkable that the newspaper for US military worldwide "Stars & Stripes" is covering the annual demonstration at US Air Force base, Ramstein, Germany to stop communications link to US assassin drones in Middle East and Africa. Pat Elder & I on banner.
Another day, another person breaking out into a rash after a shower that felt like a chemical burn and finding a fuel sheen on the surface of their tap water. Still nothing from the Navy on this new flood of documented instances of contamination.
