"Why can't we learn from our history in Vietnam and the experiences of the French in Algeria and the Israelis in the West Bank and Gaza that no occupation by an army of "the other" is ever welcome? Only last week, Israel's army chief of staff issued a warning on the limits of an occupying power to achieve its goals through the exercise of military force. "It increases hatred for Israel and strengthens the terror organizations," Lt. Gen. Moshe Yaalon told Israeli reporters, adding:"In our tactical interests, we are operating contrary to our strategic interests." Robert Scheer, How Many Body Bags

Flowing Waters of Vets for Peace (long bored internet surfer!), Shady Grove, Nobody, Krassner, Kesey, PunMaster Music Wire, Chris Darrow & others, especially investigative reporters & most especially "war correspondents and photojournalists" who refuse to play dead or dumb, for their efforts in uncovering and publicizing links and information we desperately need to remain informed while we deal once again with the everlasting karma of a nation hell-bent on domination and war to achieve its goals.
