It was a wonderful - tho very muggy - day. On
my walk down Broadway to the T-station and in the
subway station, i held out my sign
(popup link) for all to see.
Just before the Marriott, I passed a group of
what looked to be hard hats (without the hats);
one of the guys called out "let us
see!" So i turned towards them to let them
read my sign (wondering if i'd be pelted with
food, insults...). But they gave me the thumbs up
and nodded enthusiastically. I'm beginning to
think (or hope) that many more than i thought are
'onto' media and government lies. No one stopped
me to talk, but i got lots of nods and thumbs
up.
In the subway and on the T, many stopped to
read my sign. A wonderful young African- American
fellow stopped to talk and thanked me for what i
was doing. Turned out he was here from Georgia,
studying economics at BU; I told him about John
Perkins, whose book he hadn't heard of. We had a
great discussion (that others were listening in
to:-). Great kid; already tuned in to many of the
abominations that are going on. Another fellow
was delighted to have someone to talk to, to
express his outrage. He told me that his car was
constantly ticketed now, ever since he became
actively involved in anti-war
activities.
This remark from a speaker was a welcome
breath of fresh air for me; it ought to hold off
the zionists in the P&J Industry who try
their damnest to deflect attention off Israeli
atrocities by trying to get the focus on groups
like Hizballah or Hamas; paraphrasing: "if
the Arab world will not stand up for those being
relentlessly attacked, then anyone who does has
legitimacy."

________________
We had a great protest!! and so many Muslims
thanked us for our signs. There were many
Palestinian flags and the anti-zionist Rabbi from
NKUSA received very loud applause from the crowd
when he said that Israel had no right to exist.
We also confronted a few JCRC trouble makers. I
think the majority of Muslims at the protest were
anti-zionists. At the 7/19 Wed. Lebanese protest
we got positive response from Palestinians and
Lebanese. The organizers are out of touch with
the Muslim community and they should not be
scared of offending the liberal zionists. The
President of Lebanon said the Lebanese Army will
join with Hizbollah to fight the Israeli
invaders. He also said the Lebanese people are
united and will never again allow Israel to
occupy Lebanon.

Unbelievable. First of all because of the
lies they so willingly sign on to, then for their
arrogance: here's sticking it to YOU America,
with YOUR tax billions!
We are developing this
page, to identify who these
signatories are, who they are beholden to,
what they stand or hope to gain, and
everything we can tell you about them so that you
will understand likely agendas. And
exactly why nothing less than a revolution will
bring us democracy. Vote everyday - with
your conscience, you dollars and with your
activities; forget about November Follies.
