nd. What the Bill O'Reilly's of the world, and their mindless minions, know, is that those who pay the price to use their brains and know something of the Truth practically never use their Hearts enough to stand up to the bruit force of Bill and his hoards. Hence, their utter contempt for Truth.

nd. Not sure if my wish will come true of doing the vigil at the White House tomorrow to free Palestine. My body required a 16 hours of sleep today and I seem to have a mild stomach virus. We will see.

Nyt. There is a still-powerful political faction in America committed to the view that conquest pays, and that in general the way to be strong is to act tough and make other people afraid. One suspects, by the way, that this false notion of power was why the architects of war made torture routine — it wasn’t so much about results as about demonstrating a willingness to do whatever it takes.

***** pic. Ignorance of Ebola is not a ‘defense.’ Ignorance of the Creator’s Law, the Law of Unceasing Loving... is not a ‘defense.’ This has never been about the Creator punishing you. It has always and only been about keeping you from punishing yourself, and, yourselves. ‘I didn’t know she was being abused,’ ‘I didn’t know the homeless were being criminalized,’ ‘I didn’t know how to make it stop,’ ‘I didn’t know the Truth about Israel,’ ‘I didn’t know ... ‘ ’I didn’t know...’ IS your SELF INFLICTED KILLER. “You didn’t know...” is your moment by moment choice. You think it protects your selfishness. What it actually does is destroy your Heart, your Soul, Your True Joy and Happiness, and those of your dearest ones as you lead them to the same pit of emptiness, meaninglessness, depression, individual and collective self-destruction. You can’t go back, but you can repent, and move Forward, and maybe others....
article. Israel has long suffered in public opinion across Europe, where it has struggled to stave off mounting calls for divestment and the labeling of goods produced in its settlements. But since October, there have been signs that governments are beginning to embody those sentiments in legislation. The French vote follows similar measures undertaken by the parliaments of Britain, Spain, Portugal, Ireland and Sweden, and comparable steps are pending in Denmark and Slovenia. Last week, the European Parliament voted to recognize Palestinian statehood “in principle” and called for the advancement of peace talks. Hours later, 126 countries meeting in Geneva at a summit organized by the Swiss government condemned the occupation of Palestinian lands. The same day, a European Union court removed Hamas from the EU list of terrorist organizations, citing a legal technicality.

article. detail. Israeli Defilement Forces (IDF) on Tuesday suppressed a peaceful march calling for "Christmas without occupation" in Bethlehem. Demonstrators marched to the Israeli military checkpoint in northern Bethlehem to celebrate Christmas and hand out gifts to children in the area. Marchers held up signs reading: "Jesus came with a message of: Peace, Freedom and Justice" and "We want Christmas without occupation." Israeli forces prevented demonstrators, some of whom were dressed as Father Christmas, from reaching the checkpoint and fired tear gas at the crowd.
nd. No Peacemaking, No Peace! Injustice? No Peace! (I really hate the expression 'peace,' by itself.)

article. "I won't move until I say goodbye to my mother." For speaking these words, Diyaa was knocked to the floor of his family home, kicked, and beaten by Israeli soldiers who, two weeks earlier, had done the same to his two friends. It was 3 am, and Diyaa's parents could only watch as their 16-year-old son was dragged to an army jeep, blindfolded, and—like thousands of Palestinian children before him—forced into a military detention center in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. What happened next, according to affidavits given by Diyaa and his friends, fits a pattern of Israeli abuse designed to coerce confessions from Palestinian children. Among the most troubling of their experiences were prolonged periods of solitary confinement, a correctional tactic usually reserved for adult prisoners—and, even then, only after they are convicted.
***** I don't know to what degree I support the demonstrations as they are being done... the one's I've seen personally have been nothing but bigotry and hate. But regardless, there is a big, central problem - Is Amerika of by and for the citizens, or the owners and their police? Even 'politically correct' calls like the NY Mayor's to delay protests till after the funerals... HAS IT REVERSED - ON PURPOSE. If police don't honor the constitution and citizen rights BEFORE THEMSELVES... they should take off, or never put on the uniform.

vid. "GO F YOURSELF,' the highly educated, highly articulate, white American mid-fifties man excreted into my face with all the contempt, disgust and hatred he could muster. This was Sunday. I was conducting the Free Palestine Vigil in front of the White House. I was turned to my right, speaking with someone who had stopped. "Well, it is a 'war,' if it is correct to say that it was a war between the Jews and the Nazis." There were two or three other back and forths like this, civil, reasonable, honest. The white man who had been listening, "WELL, WHAT ABOUT THE HAMAS ROCKETS!?!?!?" "Well, if it was wrong for the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto to kill Germans, then it is wrong for the Palestinians to fire rockets at their occupiers who murder them, in every possible way, almost daily, without stop, for 67 years now." "GO F YOURSELF," HE PUKED SLOWLY INTO MY FACE." "GO F YOURSELF." There is a point in the movie when the sheer Ugliness, Hatefulness, Evil, Putridity... of the Monster can't be hidden any more- the mask comes off. We are entering that part of this 67 year horror story. It may be too late. That depends on you. http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/talktojazeera/2014/12/mads-gilbert-people-are-questioning-israel-2014121910554274803.html

***** pic. For Christ’s sake, ‘see’ with your Soul - I am only happy when... I am ALWAYS HAPPY WHEN... I am PERSONALLY PAYING THE PRICE for less suffering, more Joy, in the world. And so it is with you, too. The Practice of this is my entire Gospel for you. Until you ‘see’ this, you cannot Follow me, you DO Not Follow me.

nd. "Oh you poor dear!" Said my primary care doc A. C. She had just pealed back my bandages that only med techs had seen on prior visits. A graduate of Georgetown U she devotes her life to we poor, and a 'vacation' for her is going to Haiti to help the poor there. I went in to the clinic, AGAIN, this morning, because the blisters from my allergic reaction to adhesive tape... hurt like hell, and are not healing... just ooooooozing. I felt like a real baby. Her words were soooo comforting, and seemed, convincing. There is quite a bit of raw red meat showing. For the first time, I was kept awake quite a while last night with pain at the surgical site... that 36 block round trip hike to the WH Free Palestine vigil lugging all my stuff... may have hurt things, a bit. Doc C re-dressed my wounds and suggested I come back to do it again each of the next two days, which I'll do, if needed. Not much foot traffic in DC this week for the vigil, and the weather is rain. I'm hoping that Thursday will be clear enough that I can vigil to Free Palestine all day the 25th north side of the WH. We'll see.
