Tompkins County Against War & Occupation

At approximately 1820GMT on July 15 2009, the Viva Palestina US Convoy finally crossed into Gaza from the Rafah Crossing in Egypt. Headed up by the British Member of Parliament, George Galloway as well as former Congresswoman Cynthia Mckinney, the convoy was due to bring over US$1million of AID and humanitarian assistance into the besieged Gaza Strip. Due to problems created by the Mobarak Regime in Egypt they were finally only able to cross with half of that amount of aid. This recording was recorded live as they entered Gaza, and has a short speech by George Galloway where he explains the situation and introduces that there will soon be a Viva Palestina Venezuala. Broadcast on PressTV at approximately 1820GMT on July 15, 2009.

David J.'s latest Video

This video was produced for Mondoweiss (www.philipweiss.org) after being nixed by the editorial authorities at The Daily Beast. A disturbing look at the connections of one American casino tycoon who sends millions to support the illegal settlements in the West Bank, this video report unveils the raw racism of the settler movement who is dragging Israel into further conflict. Frankness, honesty, and the resultant humor abound in this 5 minute short. Please forward widely. Thanks for your continued viewership and support! We are currently working on a centralized website on which all our reports will be hosted. Best, David

On Monday, Jan. 19, 2009, hundreds of antiwar activists expressed their outrage over President George W. Bush's eight warmongering, economically disastrous, torture approving and lawbreaking years in the Oval Office (2001-2009). The good riddance to Bush rally was held at DuPont Circle, in Washington, D.C. Adam Kokesh of the' Iraq Veterans Against the War' was one of the speakers at the event. He said: 'Occupation is a crime...and Ive got a shoe for Bush!' After the speeches, the protesters marched to the White House. Once there, they tossed shoes and combat boots at the White House and insisted: 'Arrest Bush!' For background, see: http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/nod... and http://shoebush.org/ and http://arrestbush2009.com/.

The journalists include a contributing photojournalist with "Democracy Now", whose host Amy Goodman appears in this clip jumping a fence to question police officers. This is part of a series of police actions on the eve of the Republican National Convention in St. Paul. After several hours, all those detained were released. No arrests. No property was seized as result of the search warrant. The clip ends with an interview with homeowner Mike Whalen. At the start of the clip, a neighbor shouts to the media and onlookers that we could all come into her backyard to see the detained people held in the adjacent backyard.

Riad Hamad is a non-violent activist in Austin, Texas who was found drowned, bound with duct tape, in Lady Bird Lake near Austin, TX. This interview produced bt Free Speech TV gives the context of the FBI's harassment of Mr. Hamad for his charity work helping Palestinians. It brings into focus who this man is and why we should remember and honor him, counters the lies being propagated that he supports violence and terrorism. It is hard to fathom that was a suicide. But even if it was, the Bush administration and its right-wing allies are still implicated.

For many years now the American foreign policy has been characterized by the strong tie between the United States and Israel. Does the United States in fact keep Israel on its feet? And how long will it continue to do so? In March 2006 the American political scientists John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago) and Steve Walt (Harvard) published the controversial article 'The Israel Lobby and US foreign policy'. In it they state that it is not, or no longer, expedient for the US to support and protect present-day Israel.

Activists block Fort Hood Soidiers from deploying

From: Erin O’Brien <anarchist.blue@gmail.com>

Aug. 23, 2010 (KILLEEN, TX) – Five peace activists successfully blockaded six buses carrying Fort Hood Soldiers deploying to Iraq outside Fort Hood’s Clarke gate this morning at around 4 a.m. While the activists took the width of Clarke Rd. and slowed the buses to a halt, police made no arrests, but instead beat the activists out of the streets using automatic weapons and police dogs so the deploying Soldiers could proceed.

Ithaca Welcomes Walkers for a Nuclear Free Future

download episodes in this playlist

Ithaca welcomes the walkers for a nuclear free future. Ithaca Unitarian Church, March 30, 2010.
The peace walkers are passing through the Six Nation Native American Territories and NY State, walking to the UN by May 2 for the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Conference of 190 Countries. They are coming to call attention to the intertwined problems of nuclear weapons and nuclear power. This two-month sojourn is the brainchild of Jun Yasuda, a remarkable Buddhist nun of the Nipponzan Myohoji order. The Japanese-born peace pilgrim has lived in the U.S. for 20 years and spends many months each year on foot. She is also responsible for a Peace Pagoda in Grafton, northeast of Troy.

The welcoming starts with Buddhist chants with hoop drums with Jun Yasuda and Gyotethu Morishita (from Japan). Clare Grady introduces speakers Paul Gagnon, Larry Bring Good, Gyotethu Morishita, and Frida Berrigan, followed by Q&A.

Margo Ramlal-Nankoe continues the fight for academic freedom

Here is an update letter from Margo:

Dear Supporters and Friends,

I am writing to update you on my Ithaca College tenure case.

For the first time in 11 years, I did not start the Fall semester as a professor in the Sociology Department at Ithaca College. I am deeply saddened by this and I have truly missed the campus and my opportunity to engage students and interact with my peers.

Despite this dramatic absence in my life, I have been busy telling my story, interacting with cherished supporters and collaborating with other professors in similar situations. I am also very happy to announce that I have just accepted a position to teach in the Sociology Department at Hunter College in New York City.

Below, I would like to highlight some of the truly inspirational interactions I have had over the past few months: Continue reading Margo Ramlal-Nankoe continues the fight for academic freedom

Rhetoric and Reality: Masking War Escalation as a Withdrawal Plan

The anti-war movement responds to President Obama’s speech
Statement from the ANSWER Coalition

The U.S. cannot “win” the war in Afghanistan. It was losing the war when Barack Obama took office. In March 2009, President Obama ordered another 30,000 troops. Rather than reverse the outcome, the U.S. and NATO effort lost even more ground. Now President Obama has ordered another 30,000 troops to Afghanistan.

Attempting to deflect growing opposition to the announcement of his dramatic escalation of the war in Afghanistan, President Obama is simultaneously claiming that U.S. troops will start to be withdrawn in July 2011.

The Generals and Admirals, and now the White House, are unwilling to accept responsibility for a military setback. The President knows they cannot win and yet is unwilling to leave. Since no leader is willing to take responsibility, they are instead sending thousands more to their deaths. Continue reading Rhetoric and Reality: Masking War Escalation as a Withdrawal Plan

Father Roy Bourgeois, WSH 414, Cornell

Father Roy Bourgeois from the SOA Watch speaks Thursday September 24th, 1 pm in Willard Straight Hall 414.

Fr Roy Bourgeois has lived in a small apartment next to the main gate of the world’s largest military training base for the past 18 years. His concern is the US Army training of Latinos at Ft Benning, Ga. . SOA Graduates (renamed WHINSEC) are trained in combat arms with a sprinkling of ‘new’ human rights courses. Graduates have gone back to their own countries to commit horrendous crimes against their own people. A blood trail left by graduates of the US Army School of the Americas extends from Central to South America. America tax payers subsidize the horror.

Long before Abu Ghraib, Roy Bourgeois knew well the tactics of teaching torture by the US Military. When Americans began to realize that our claimed moral superiority was a false assumption, Roy Bourgeois and others had long pointed to our history of terror teaching at the US Army School of the Americas. Back in the 1990’s Roy spent a total of over four years in federal prison in his attempt to publicize the crimes of American foreign policy in Latin America.

Long a supporter of human rights, Roy has also taken the struggle of women within his church to a controversial high in American Catholicism. His support for the ordination of women has made him a target of derision by church hierarchy.

Kenny Ritter Presente!

Kenny’s Luminary News on public access tv in Ithaca showed the way. We could build on his legacy by re-forming Indy Media. –Cris

Peter Meiers sent the following:

Hi folks: (apologies for cross-posting)
Am sending this to some of the activist lists that both Kenny Ritter, Linda Holzbaur (his wife) are a part of, thinking that there would be a fair amount of people on these lists that might not otherwise have heard…… I am incredibly sad to say that yesterday morning, (Saturday) Kenny passed away at the hospital. Below are the details that Linda just posted to Facebook of services on Tuesday……

Kenny was a great friend. I met him when he convinced me to run for Sheriff back in 2002. He then became my campaign manager, and he helped to inspire me personally to get as involved as I have in community organizing……When Kenny became sick with Multiple System Atrophy we went to over 75 minor league baseball games ‘tween 2003 and 2006. Truly a great guy and an inspiration to myself and many in the larger community.
In loving solidarity
Pete
(from Linda Holzbaur) Kenny Ritter, 57, died 9/5/09 from complications of Multiple System Atrophy. His children Grace (Josh Dolan), Nat (Kim Wheelock), Anna, Eleanor, granddaughters Vienna, Leona and wife Linda Holzbaur live in Ithaca. Burial will be at Greensprings Natural Cemetery, Newfield at 11:00 Tuesday 9/8/09. A memorial and dish-to-pass will follow at 2:00 at the Ithaca Farmers’ Market, Steamboat Landing.

Ithacan returns from Cuba with Venceremos Brigade

Never let it be said that our alternative media and new modes of communication like blogs, Facebook and Twitter will ever replace the role of the conventional daily paper. It came as a complete surprise that I read in this morning’s Ithaca Journal that Emiliano Acevedo, a recent Ithaca College graduate, just returned with the Venceremos Brigade.

The article Ithacan joins Cuba protest trip, states:

The 23-year-old now hopes to inspire more Ithacans to join him for next year’s trip, and he is planning to start a Cuba solidarity group here.

Please go to the Ithaca Journal website NOW to comment on the story. This kind of opportunity doesn’t happen everyday.

I do hope he does stay around and help build the new momentum locally for increased understanding and bridges between the peoples of the US and Cuba, an end to the US trade, econmonic, and cultural blockade of Cuba, full freedom to travel, and re-nomalization of relations between our two countries. We have mostly focused on Pastors for Peace Caravans, which are also a travel challenge. Having met the brigadistas two years ago and interviewing some of them for a video (which I really should post on this site) I can see that the Venceremos Brigade has a great appeal for young people, and it really deserves more of our attention and support.

I think it would be great to host an event in September with both Dan Burgevin and Emiliano Acevedo as featured participants. Can we couple this with something cultural?

Dan Burgevin, back from Cuba with Pastors for Peace

I am back from my third trip with pastors for peace to our neighbor Cuba. Every time I have gone, the place and people there get a little deeper into my consciousness. We visit new facilities or see a different service that the revolution has provided for the people and I’m further convinced about how much we have to learn from Cuba about living together peacefully. Too, I’m further convinced about how fearful our government must be about having a different system of living together as a fair and equitable society right under our noses being revealed to ordinary US citizens. Why else would we be trying (since 1959) to be undermining, trying to assassinate, poison and bomb Cuba’s citizens and leadership? Why else would we be trying to undermine its economy and deny its people medicine and food for its children? Why else would 11 different US administrations punish Cuba just for having the right of self determination? I’ll tell you why —fear.

Contagious Love Experiment: Josh Stieber at Grassroots

download
Read more of Josh’s experiences and thoughts in Ithaca, Trumansburg, and beyond on contagiousloveexperiment.wordpress.com.
In mid-July of 2009, Peace Now Ithaca, a local group in the Fingerlakes rgion of upstate New York that had organized a successful campaign to designate Ithaca a Sanctuary City for war resisters, received word that 21-year old Iraq veteran and conscientious objector, Josh Sieber, was on a trek across the nation and wanted to come to Ithaca. With the help and cooperation of the Ithaca and Perry City Friends Meetings, the Social Justice Council of the Ithaca Unitarian Church, the Finger Lakes Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance and annual Peace Forum, we organized a potluck dinner to meet Josh, a local Peace Walk with him, and arranged for his participation at the festival.

Joining Josh on the walk were Plowshares and Catholic Workeractivist Ellen Grady, her daughter Saoirse, Peace Now Ithaca activistBob Nape, and videographer Cris McConkey. At the festival, Josh met up with former medic and conscientious objector Michael Blake.

The peace forum is an annual eventat the Fingerlakes Grassroots Festival of Music & Dance. It was started by Jolene Uticone, a widely known and loved youth worker. This video starts with the peace walk and ends with Josh’s address in the Dance Tent, where he was invited to speak by the traditional Irish band the Grumblin Rustics.

To sum up Josh’s message in one sentence: We need to live out of trust and out of love… …and not out of fear.

Police Brutality vs Cornell Queers

On the night of May 30th of this year, we found ourselves stuck in the middle of a police riot against the crowd of queer & trans folks in Chicago, which has left us now in a very sensitive situation. In short, while in Chicago for a queer & trans activist convergence, we were part of an approximately 100 queer and trans folk-crowd walking in Boystown, or, the ‘gay nightclub district.’ Police showed up, and without rhyme, reason, or warning, hit people in the crowd with patrol cars. More cops ran into the crowd and grabbed queers, seemingly at random, and proceeded to beat them with batons and extendable asps. What followed can only be described as bedlam and a bloody evening.

Dear Cornell students, staff, faculty, and alumni bisexies, transfolks, two spirits, queers, genderqueers, lesbians, gays, anomolies, friends, family, allies, and distant relatives, etc.,

We hope this letter finds you all well, but unfortunately it does not contain the best of news. This is a follow up to the update sent out a month ago about Cornell queers who were bashed by the police in Chicago. Continue reading Police Brutality vs Cornell Queers

Spec. Trevor Loope is Free! Army Drops Court Martial

Immediate Release: Saturday, July 11 at 12 Noon

Specialist Trevor Loope, 24, of Austin,. TX who faced a year in prison and a Bad Conduct discharge at Special Court Martial for AWOL was discharged administratively by order of Ft Drum’s Commander, Gen. Michael Oates on Friday, July 10th.

Because Loope possessed an Honorable Discharge from an earlier Army tour, he will be eligible for GI Bill benefits as well as treatment at VA medical facilities.

Loope had left Ft Drum in 2007 when he was unable to obtain mental health treatment for his Afghan-war-related injuries. With the support of Citizen Soldier, a national GI and veterans rights advocacy group based in New York City, Loope had surrendered to Ithaca’s Common Council on December 3, 2008. He relied on a resolution which the council had adopted in October, 2008 which offered “sanctuary” in Ithaca to war resisters. Although council members offered Trevor support, they didn’t provide sanctuary.

After surrendering at Ft Drum,.Trevor spent the next seven months serving in administrative jobs in his old unit. He had provided Ft Drum therapists with an extensive psychiatric diagnosis which documented that he suffered from both severe Posttraumatic Stress Disorder and a Major Depression.

His civilian psychologist, Dr. David Ogren travelled from Houston TX to testify at an Army “sanity board” which met to determine Trevor’s mental state on June 18th at Ft Drum. Although that board has still not published its recommendations, General Oates approved an administrative discharer in lieu of court-martial.

Tod Ensign, Esq.,and Director of Citizen Soldier commented; “The Army has finally done the right thing by separating Trevor without court martial, but they have done this six months ago. For some reason, they wanted this injured soldier to ‘twist in the wind’ for a while, probably in hopes of deterring other ailing soldiers who might go AWOL in search of treatment.” Ensign added: “Trevor’s release is a victory that resulted from the broad support his case generated in Ithaca and across the country. However, we can’t forget that there are thousands of other soldiers like Trevor who are denied mental health care every day.”

President Manuel Zelaya, after over eighty days in exile, has returned to Honduras. He reported the news in an interview with Canal 36, a Honduran television network. Zelaya has called for the increasingly strong resistance movement to converge at the United Nations building in Tegucigalpa. The coup regime denies that Zelaya is in Honduras and has repeatedly stated that Zelaya would be arrested upon return to Honduras. Visit the SOA Watch web site at www.SOAW.org for updates.
