'We the people' tell the government what to do, it doesn't tell us. 'We the people' are the driver, the government is the car. And we decide where it should go, and by what route, and how fast. Almost all the world's constitutions are documents in which governments tell the people what their privileges are. Our Constitution is a document in which 'We the people' tell the government what it is allowed to do. 'We the people' are free.

U.S. drone strikes truck in Syria used by Iran-backed militia Attack comes amid increasing tensions between U.S. military and Iraqi militias, with Iranian regional proxies targeting bases housing American soldiers Associated Press | Published: 07.18.21, 14:48 A U.S. drone attack targeted a truck for an Iran-backed militia in eastern Syria on Sunday, destroying the vehicle without causing any casualties, two Iraqi militia officials said. The attack came amid increasing tensions in the region between the U.S. military and Iran-backed Iraqi militias in recent weeks. The Americans have targeted militants who used drones and rockets to hit bases housing U.S. troops. The Iraqi militia officials refused to say what the truck was carrying. They said the U.S. drone first fired a warning shot, after which the driver jumped out, and a missile hit the vehicle shortly afterward. They said the truck belonged to Kataib Sayyid al-Shuhada, which is active along the Iraq-Syria border. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. There was no immediate comment from the U.S. military. Syrian state TV reported the attack saying it was carried out by American drones. It said the truck was carrying food and there were no human losses. The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said the truck was carrying weapons and ammunition for an Iraqi militia and was hit shortly after crossing the border from Iraq. It claimed that the driver was killed. On June 27, U.S. Air Force planes carried out airstrikes near the Iraq-Syria border against what the Pentagon said were facilities used by Iran-backed militia groups to support drone strikes inside Iraq. Four militiamen were killed. Days later, Kataib Sayyid al-Shuhada’s commander vowed to retaliate and since then several rockets attacks have been reported against bases housing U.S. troops in Syria and Iraq. Hundreds of U.S. troops are deployed in eastern Syria as part of the war against the Islamic State group. Thousands of Iran-backed fighters are deployed in different parts of Syria to help President Bashar Assad’s forces in the 10-year conflict that killed half a million people. https://www.ynetnews.com/article/sj3rpkbcu [This little tit for tat continues and could well grow.

(United Hatzalah) Four people, including an infant, were wounded on Sunday evening, after rocks hurled by Palestinians hit vehicles near Jerusalem’s flashpoint Damascus Gate. A fifth person was hurt by rocks in East Jerusalem. Police said officers were operating near Damascus Gate to disperse Palestinians who were clashing with forces, including a group throwing rocks at passing vehicles. Amid the rioting, a car belonging to an Israeli family driving through the area was struck with rocks. The father, mother, and their one-year-old son were lightly wounded, according to the United Hatzalah ambulance service. They were evacuated to the Hadassah Mount Scopus Hospital after receiving immediate medical attention at the scene. In a separate incident near Damascus Gate, a 33-year-old man was who hit by rocks was transported to the Shaare Zedek Medical Center in stable condition. United Hatzalah said the man suffered from glass shrapnel wounds in his head after a stone hit his car as he drove through the area. Police said they had launched a search to locate the suspects. Jerusalem’s Damascus Gate frequently sees violent clashes between security forces and Palestinians. It has also been the site of numerous stabbing and shooting attacks in recent years. Also Sunday evening, a Palestinian who hurled rocks at vehicles in East Jerusalem’s At-Tur neighborhood was arrested by police. Police said at least one passerby was lightly wounded after the suspect attacked his vehicle with rocks. The suspect was caught as he was throwing rocks, a spokesperson for the police said. Earlier on Sunday, Palestinian worshipers clashed with police on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. Police entered the site and used sponge-tipped bullets and crowd dispersal methods to clear the area. Israel Police said that some Palestinians threw rocks. https://www.timesofisrael.com/parents-infant-child-injured-by-rock-throwing-near-jerusalems-damascus-gate/ [These usually aren’t little rock they are the size of a loaf of bread. – rdb] What sparked violence on Jerusalem's Temple Mount today? - explainer Over 1,600 Jews mark Tisha Be’av on the Temple Mount on Sunday following clashes between Muslim worshippers at Al-Aqsa Mosque and Israel Police.

Nonetheless, human dignity and advocating for the rights of victims were at the heart of our mission, our life goal and purpose. We were armed with the international law’s rules and mechanisms, which is the fruit of many peoples’ experiences and struggles to identify justice from injustice, in our mission to protect humans and their rights to live a dignified life. Decades passed and we fought via every legal route we had available tirelessly, without a single moment of hesitation in the face of the Israeli occupation’s restrictions and threats. As the occu- pation continued without rest to put hurdles in our path, and enjoyed the illusion of depriving us from the means and mechanisms to defend the defeated and oppressed, our will never waned and we were never persuaded to drift from the path we chose to tread, because it is our deep belief that we have no choice but to stand tall and defend, as Palestinian people, our existence, dignity and right to self-determination.

    S New Mccarthyism

    Israel’s New McCarthyism Peter Dreier published the following article in The American Prospect. Dreier teaches politics and chairs the Urban & Environmental Policy Department at Occidental College. His latest book is The 100 Greatest Americans of the 20th Century: A Social Justice Hall of Fame (Nation Books, 2012). The article examines the growing attacks on Israel’s progressive civil rights and human rights movement (such as Breaking the Silence) and on the New Israel Fund by the Netanyahu’s government and extremist groups like Im Tirtzu: Israel’s New McCarthyism Inside the well-organized campaign against Israel’s progressive community. As international discontent with Israel’s occupation policy continues to rise, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government and Israel’s ultra-right-wing movement have escalated their attacks on the country’s progressive community, which opposes the 49-year-old Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the ever-expanding government-subsidized settlements. This week, the Knesset is expected to take up a bill backed by Netanyahu and his allies that will require Israeli nongovernmental organizations that expose and challenge the government’s human rights abuses against Palestinians to register, in effect, as foreign agents. Some Israeli activists call the legislation their country’s version of McCarthyism. Others liken what’s happening in Israel as similar to the current attack on Planned Parenthood by Republicans and their more successful campaign several years ago to dismantle the community organizing group ACORN. The attack includes the recent publication of a report and the release of a video, both sponsored by the ultra-nationalist group Im Tirtzu (literally, “if you will it”).

  • The Lieberman We Need to Worry About

    The Lieberman We Need to Worry About

    The Lieberman We Need To Worry About Israeli Minister of Minority Affairs Avishai Braverman (Labor) thinks Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman should be fired from his ministry for saying that an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict “…is not achievable in the next year or in the next generation.” One understands Braverman’s point. Lieberman was, after all, not just offering an analysis. He himself is one of the main reasons that the pessimism he expresses exists. Lieberman is not merely a bystander offering a judgment, but an actor working against the sorts of resolutions that have, for more than 15 years, made up the foundation of a two-state solution. But Braverman’s solution wouldn’t really change much. Lieberman’s “role” as Foreign Minister has been thoroughly curtailed. Indeed, every now and then, Lieberman, who is well aware of his marginalization in the Netanyahu government, bristles and has a public spat with his boss, Benjamin Netanyahu. Bibi might toss Lieberman some kind of bone, but he has made it clear that Lieberman is not part of the inner circle. His opinion, in and of itself, carries no weight, and Bibi’s only concern (and it is a serious one) is what Lieberman can do domestically to rally people against the Likud leader. This was evidenced once again at the Washington launch of direct talks between Israel and the Palestinians last week. Surely, any country’s foreign minister should be present at such a momentous event. But Lieberman couldn’t make it as he had a very important job in bringing his diplomatic powers to bear on the sensitive and crucial relationship between Israel and … Cyprus.

    Lfein Forward Template

    February 19th, 2010 Im Tirtzu in Goldstone's Footsteps By Leonard Fein By and large, I resist conspiratorial explanation of events. Most often, coincidence governs; things that seem related have arrived together from different sources, and their togetherness is curious rather than significant. Now, however, I admit to alarm. We are witness to an escalating series of events that begin to feel cumulative, moving faster and faster to subvert Israel’s democracy and transform its political and social life into a kind of Absurdistan. As so often happens, the first steps in this new and perilous direction were barely noticed. A nip at freedom of expression here, a tuck at dissent there, another permit refused, another home demolished, another protest quashed. No big deal, except to those directly involved. The police put down a demonstration the courts have permitted, and still more people show up the following week. An opaque organization called NGO Monitor whines tediously on about the lack of transparency in Israeli NGOs, and the earth still spins safely in its orbit. But suddenly in recent days, the dots have begun to seem connected. The precipitating event was the publication, in Israel, of a document of 69 pages (plus 43 pages of appendices) alleging that save for the support of organizations funded (in part) by the New Israel Fund, there’d have been no Goldstone Report. This utterly preposterous allegation is quite explicit. It appears, among other places, in a full-page ad by the document’s publisher, an organization called Im Tirtzu (“if you will it …”): “Fact,” the ad asserts in large letters: “Without the New Israel Fund, there could be no Goldstone Report, and Israel would not be facing international accusations of war crimes.” 1 The Im Tirtzu report was immediately picked up by the Israeli press — most provocatively by Ben Caspit in Maariv, and insult was added to insult when Im Tirtzu took a full- page ad in The Jerusalem Post that featured a crude caricature of the NIF’s president, Naomi Chazan.

    State Infringement on Basic Civil and Political Rights in Israel (From Mossawa)

    State infringement on basic civil and political rights in Israel (from Mossawa) This past year has seen a series of arrest of prominent political and civil society leaders, especially during peaceful demonstrations, which are indicative of the effect of the current government’s policies and actions on the exercise of basic civil and political rights, such as the freedom of speech and the right to demonstrate. Moreover, a government-backed bill threatening the independence and the work of Human Rights NGOs in Israel is currently being discussed at the Knesset. In 2009, over 70 people were arrested during a weekly peaceful demonstration in Sheikh Jarrah.1 In addition, seven hundred protesters were arrested during demonstrations to protest the war on Gaza.2 When considering these arrests, one must also take into account the recent government backed law granting amnesty to all 400 settlers who violently demonstrated against the Gaza disengagement.3 Again, in March 2010, the Israeli law enforcement authorities responded to protests in Jerusalem against the stagnation of the peace process by locking the city, which proceeded to massive arrests of demonstrators and the use of grenades and rubber-bullets on unarmed people.4 Proposed legislation to restrict foreign funding to Human Rights NGOs Following the release of the “Breaking the Silence” Testimony Report - a compilation of soldier’s testimonies which contradicted the official government version of what took place during operation Cast Lead in December and January 2009 in Gaza - the Israeli government publicly announced its intention to wage an ‘aggressive battle against NGOs it deems biased against Israel’.5 In essence, such a discussion threatens almost all Human Rights groups in Israel that advocate for the rights of Palestinians, as well as groups that actively oppose the inhumanity of the occupation, the illegality of the Wall, the construction of settlements, and war crimes committed in the West Bank and Gaza.

A spokesman for the PFLP in Damascus telephoned the Reuter office in Kuwait on the same day to announce his organization's responsibility for the hijacking, but a Beirut spokesman for the PFLP denied on June 28 that it had anything to do with the action. The PFLP led by Dr George Habash, is part of the "rejection front" whwich opposes any "partal" settlement which would guuarantee the existence of a Jewish state on the territory of Plestine—see 26961.] The leader of the hijackers was Herr Wilfried Bose (27), a West German lawyer who had been part of the PFLP network, for whose terrorist activities in Europe Sr Ilich Ramirez Sánchez (alias Carlos Martínez or "The Jackal") had been responsible [see 27587].

Robert Wexler, President ● Yoni Komorov, Editor ● Aaron Zucker, Associate Editor News Excerpts March 12, 2019 Ynet News US Senator Vows to Seek Recognition of Israeli Rule in Golan U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham on Monday vowed to push for U.S. recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, in what would represent a new contentious political gift to Israel from the Trump administration. The South Carolina Republican said he aimed to change the current U.S.-designation of the Golan, which Israel captured from Syria in 1967, as disputed territory. He spoke during a tour of the frontier with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “The Golan is not disputed. It is in the hands of Israel and will always remain in the hands of Israel,” Graham said from a cliff overlooking Syria.“My goal is to try to explain this to the administration,” he said.
