Jerusalem: Over 20,000 Palestinian Homes to be Demolished - International Middle East Media Center

Jerusalem: Over 20,000 Palestinian Homes to be Demolished - International Middle East Media Center

Cancer Update. I asked my oncologist today when we met to describe my situation. She said, 'Unfortunately, you are a stage four cancer patient... but fortunate.' She further explained, your cancer learned how to send out seeds and so far we've seen seeds growing into tumors in your liver and more recently your lung. But your scan of two weeks ago is clean, and it has been a year since your chemo and liver section. So, for now, we need to watch you carefully and frequently to see if any other seeds decide to grow, pretty intensively for the next 3 years or so. We'll do CT scans every 4 months for now, to see if anything grows. We'll do another colonoscopy asap, she does not want to wait. Within the next several weeks I expect. She emailed the specialist and we need to schedule something. But she said, 'this is really your first 'well baby' visit, we call it. We need to look at diet and exercise now. You walk quite a bit so I think you are ok with exercise. I want to you to take three things daily, pills: children's aspirin, fish oil, and calcium with vitamin D. My next consult, ct scan with blood work is end of May. Must make every day count... for my most desperate family... in Palestine.

***** Palestinians prepare 'Diplomatic (AND NON-VIOLENT) Intifiada' - According to this official, the Palestinian leadership is contemplating how to deal with this situation. He claims that the region and the world will hear about Palestine in two forms come April 2015. The first new front line would be a "diplomatic intifada," calling on international and regional frameworks for conflict resolution and statehood, based on international law. This diplomatic attack will be followed by a nonviolent popular intifada that will combine more demonstrations around settlements, the separation wall and East Jerusalem. He said, "This is the time for independence either by diplomacy as a kind of a war of independence."

nd. Republican genius: They recognize that the US whites who see their futures diminishing want more than anything else someone to blame and hate for it, besides themselves, that are easy, safe targets they can get way with vitimizing. And the right gleefully serves up their targets - gays, MUSLIMS, poor minorities, women. (Oh, and they know that the left won't do squat to stop them or protect these weakest among us.) hehehehe

nd. Tuesday I expect to learn if that tumor in my lung was malignant or not. I'm fighting a cold that keeps me up with rivers of mucus, sorry, all night. The cold medicine isn't touching it. Could be much worse. I'm surprisingly productive during the day. The weather, the extreme cold, is far too much for my reduced strength to be vigiling for Palsestine these days, but this week the congressscum is out of town so that timing is good. Hopefully the following week the weather will be better and my strength greater and I can be back on the Hill for Palestine. I'm using my time indoors do fight for Palestine online on facebook and my blog and am in a deep dive of learning - Zionism, Christian Zionism, US Christian Fascism, Judaism.....

nd. I am finding that the most Godly, Good, Humane group of size that I see on earth I see are our Muslim brothers and sisters... despite all odds they have withstood the onslaught of our corrupt western culture so rife with greed and self-centeredness. This is a finding that greatly surprises me. I also find that the most extremely Humane, Good people on earth, the small handful, are Jews, like this young woman, Jewish Voice for Peace, Norman Finkelstein, Noam Chomsky, Gideon Levy, Amira Haas, Max Blumenthal, Glenn Greenwald, Henry Seigman, Heidi Epsteain, Hajo Meyer, Israel Shahak, the Israeli Refuseniks, Breaking the Silence..... Unimaginable Humanity. I find the most evil on earth the Judeo / Christian white fundamentalists - christians in the US and jews (zionists) in Israel and the US - F'ing Sociopaths, Clinically, and they are about to destroy everything because they have no serious opposition.

nd. What a heartbreaking week - the death of Kayla Mueler, and those three breathtaking young Saints in North Carolina. Times like these, weeks like these, so many days for me feel like we are led to believe Oba Wan felt when that planet was destroyed. Such grief.
