***** article. “No one has ever heard of a sad saint or a saint with a funeral face,” Pope Francis said Sunday. “Unheard of! It would be a contradiction. A Christian is a person who has a heart full of peace because he knows how to find his joy in the Lord even when passing through difficult moments of life,” he said.

nd. I am immensely defensive of Muslims and Islam against the vicious, brilliantly conceived, relentless savaging by western monied, chr'istian, and zionist hoards for the purpose of dehumanizing, raping and robbing Muslims for more than 70 years. I am immensely defensive of Muslims and Islam when I compare what I understand to be the record of 'chr'stians' vs Muslims in the world where 'chr'stians' have tortured and slaughtered in the name of Jesus hundreds of millions in north and south america, tortured and enslaved and lynched blacks in america, tortured and slaughtered 10s of millions of aborigines in australia, tortured and killed 10s of millions of blacks in congo, tortured, tormented, terrorized 10's of millions of blacks in south africa... and are now torturing, terrorizing, tormenting... millions of Palestinians. I know of no Muslim behavior that is in the same league as this. I am open to discovering I am incorrect... but there is much study of the scholarship ahead of me before I am confident I've gotten past the western propaganda to the truth. What I also know is while the chr'stian west was terrorizing Jews, the one place in the world where Jews were safe was the Muslim world. Finally, unlike Jesus who sought to rule the world of Spirit (tho he seems to have directed his disciples to strap on swords under certain circumstances) Mohammad was in a world not dominated by empire, but rife with inter-tribe warfare, and from what I can tell, so far, brought unprecedented peace and prosperity to the parts of the world he influenced... without the disgusting hedonism, excesses, lusts, intoxications... of the chr'stian west.

You ok with that? White House Free Palestine Vigil, 12/14/14 [Note: I’ll be away from the fight for a while... my next cancer surgery is tomorrow, 11am.]

vid. I SCREAMED AT THE 'BLACK LIVES MATTER' MOB AT THE WHITE HOUSE: "YOU ARE BIGOTS, IGNORANT, HATEFUL... JUST LIKE THOSE YOU PRETEND TO PROTEST." This was last weekend, a mixed race group of young toughs came storming to the north side of the White House late in the day, where, as I am now, I was fighting to Free Palestine. The came storming into the park, a nasty, hateful mob... screaming at all the police. I hate all bigotry, ignorance, savagery... from anyone... to anyone. But especially if it is toward the Secret Service, who over the years I've watched conduct themselves with immense self-discipline, respectfulness, immense decency... a level which if practiced by even 1% of those liberals that considered themselves activists, well, I could on retirement. This good, decent man Clancy is representative of all I've seen in these good folks of the Secret Service. http://www.nbcnews.com/nightly-news/new-secret-service-chief-joseph-clancy-let-us-prove-ourselves-n267341

***** article. Ex-Mossad chief: Peace will elude us until we treat Palestinians with dignity
There is no word in Hebrew for dignity, he quoted a friend observing
once. The Arab world has long felt deeply inferior, and Israelis are
basically telling Arabs that they don’t suffer from an inferiority
complex but are indeed inferior, Halevy said. “The problem we have had
over the years has been that they have sought dignity and the last thing
we ever thought of was addressing them in a manner that gave them a
feeling of some dignity.”

***** article. Nobel Prize of Literature Jose Saramago: “The repression from Israel is the worst form of Apartheid. Nobody has the faintest idea of what is going on here, even the best informed people. Everything is in pieces, the land is destroyed and nothing else may be planted. All this smells like a boot camp, like Auschwitz. The israeli have turned into NAZI JEWS” , he declared after a visit to Palestina in March, 2002.
article. The sick motivation behind the religious right’s Obamacare sabotage Wingnuts would rather millions live in destitution than concede government programs can accomplish great things.... And that’s precisely the state of affairs that the religious right yearns for. What they want is to build a theocracy from the ground up, where the poor and the needy are abjectly dependent on a church that can yank away the necessities of life if it judges them insufficiently compliant, and so the masses will have no choice but to be corralled and steered. Even today, we can see this conservative vision put into practice, and witness the terrible consequences that result when it blocks the government from helping the needy. Consider Mississippi, which is both the most religious and has the most churches per capita of any U.S. state. If rosy visions like Ernst’s were true, Mississippi would be the best place in the country to live. But in reality, it’s the poorest and (by life expectancy) sickest state. http://www.salon.com/2014/12/13/the_sick_motivation_behind_the_religious_rights_obamacare_sabotage_partner/

nd. My fellow activist Rick Hohensee, different Causes than mine, but tremendous commitment, watched my stuff so I could go into the House Office Building on Capitol Hill to use the restroom which I badly needed to do. Of course there are guard stations inside every entrance. I respect the boundaries with the police and I am warmly respectful but make no effort to go beyond that. With very few exceptions the Capitol Police are very professional, and very nice human beings. I did not recognize these officers. Upon exiting I gave them a warm hope that they enjoyed the holidays. As I was walking out I heard one of the officers calling after me, so I turned and went back so I could hear. What is that flag, he asked looking at my hat? Palestine I said. Oh, that's excellent, he said knowingly and approvingly.
