»‘The decision of Palestinian and Israeli bereaved families to work together for reconciliation is a courageous and extraordinary choice. Our choice to meet, to listen, and to build bridges of humanity and mutual understanding sends an important message to the international community.’«

I just got informed by a couple of amigos about an anti-war protest in Tamaki Makaurau on April 11. The only place I could find info on the web is FarceBook (at least I can see it without logging in);

I tried DDG, Brave Search, Mojeek, nada. It took a StartPage search of the Goggle Search index to find that FB page. This is ludicrous folks.

Let's get all this into the social web?

"For decades, American Jews were assumed to be uncritical supporters of #Israel. But Israel’s war in #Gaza transformed Jewish politics in the US and irrevocably undermined the legitimacy of institutions that sustain Zionism."

Germany's new peace movement gains momentum amid rising opposition to arms races and militarization. Diverse alliances unite, demanding a halt to arms supplies & active peace negotiations for Ukraine and Gaza. Can history repeat with a powerful, unified call for peace? ✌️🌍🕊️ #PeaceMovement #StopWar #Germany https://www.dw.com/en/anti-war-germanys-new-peace-movement-gains-momentum/a-74154812

"Eisenberg brings to life the political and military choices of Richard #Nixon and Henry #Kissinger as they waged brutal illegal wars against #Vietnam, #Laos, and #Cambodia – and demonstrates the influence that the #antiwarMovement actually brought to bear."

'Washington, inundated with protests, had become a “besieged city,” wrote Henry Kissinger [...] In the moment, few activists could have imagined their resistance was having such dramatic effects. But time showed that their actions had set the stage for #Nixon’s eventual political downfall.'

"Now in her 80s, Tangiora has faced down soldiers in Chiapas, Mexico, with Indigenous communities defending their land, and has been kicked out of Tahiti for protesting French nuclear-weapons tests. In the lead-up to the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, she comforted children in a Baghdad hospital who suffered from leukaemia brought about by uranium-tipped bombs dropped by the US during the previous Gulf War."

„In the face of a dangerous government that offers us a gift of war and a future of death, we say: Yes Peace.

Join the hundreds across the country and hang a bilingual "Yes, Salam*" sign on your balcony: together we'll bring the extremist minority back to its normal size.

"Eleanor Penny and The Dig’s host Daniel Denvir sat down with writer and academic #LalehKhalili and the freshly re-elected, newly independent MP #JeremyCorbyn to discuss the past, the present, and the future of #Internationalism. Their fascinating discussion covered everything from #Palestine, #Congo and #Iran, to the #LabourParty, the welfare state, the #ClimateCrisis, and the economics of global trade."

"The fact that Black activists today are showing up at marches organized by Jewish students, who are raising their voices in solidarity with #Palestinians who are suffering occupation and annihilation in #Gaza, is due in no small part to thousands of small acts of revolutionary love that have occurred over the course of years.."

"The thing is, even if there were a ceasefire tomorrow, this movement isn’t going away. The demos might get much smaller, and people might want to do more local actions, but the feeling among the organizers is that there has been a permanent sea-change in public attitudes towards #Palestine. And this has already altered British politics."

Circa 1991, my dad wrote a pretty nice autobiographical essay that I published on my blog in 2004.

Today would be my dad's 95th birthday. It's hard to believe it's been 25 years since he died. Here's a biographical thing that I wrote about him back when I first started blogging in 2004:
