At a press conference, on Capitol Hill, on May 13, 2009, Rep. Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH) spoke out strongly for a single payer healthcare system. He said: “Healthcare is a Civil Right!” The event was organized by the California Nurses Assoc/NNOC. In 2008, Rep. Kucinich ran for president in the Democratic Primary. Of all the candidates, he was the strongest in opposing the immoral and illegal Iraq War. For background, see: afterdowningstreet.org/ and http://kucinich.house.gov/ Healthcare activists are supporting HR 676 and S 703, now pending before the U.S. Congress.

On May 8, 2009, in the early afternoon, activists were holding their weekly vigil for Peace and Justice in front of the White House. I wasn’t surprised to find Eve Tetaz there. She is a long time fighter for Peace. I also chatted with Tom Siemer. He was one of the cofounder of the Dorothy Day Catholic Workers group, in Washington, D.C., which sponsors the weekly vigil. Mr. Siemer had an “epiphany” of sorts which led him into the Peace Movement over 28 years ago.

Americans, must accept that they live in a police state now, and they must willingly give up all of their valuables and cash to the highway robber police. It’s either that or get their heads bashed in or see their wives and children strip-searched, or the police could just plant drugs on them and completely destroy their lives. True, there is a token investigation being carried out for the benefit of the media, but nothing what so ever will be done. Thank you Obushma, for not changing a thing.

On Friday, May 8, 2009, activists from the “Ashraf Protection Campaign” staged a rally in Lafayette Park, across the street from the White House. This is the 100th day that they have done so. They are concerned about preventing a “looming humanitarian crisis in Camp Ashraf,” according to their press release. Camp Ashraf is located in the town of Khalis, in Iraq, nearly “50 miles from the Iranian border.” About 4000 men, women and children--all political refugees from Iran--currently reside in the camp. I talked with Sahand Khosbaten, a PR representative for the group. He expressed his opinion on the current human rights situation in Camp Ashraf.

It’s Springtime for AIPAC! The mega-Israel Lobby convenes annually in Washington, D.C. at the convention center. AIPAC sucks out over $3 billion a year from our fast fading treasury for Israel with little or no dissent from the fakers in the U.S. Congress. If only the cities of Detroit, LA, Atlanta and Baltimore had such a puffed-up advocate in their corner. If you’re lucky, you can spot some of your Congressional low lifes crawling on all fours into the convention center to pay homage to the Israel-First types. Isn’t there a law against that kind of bootlicking? As always, lovers of the Republic were outside on the streets on Monday, May 4, 2009, protesting AIPAC. For some background on the all-powerful Israel Lobby, see: http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2009/04/30/the-lobby-wants-war/ and http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2009/05/03/the-spies-who-got-away/ and

On May 4, 2009, a protest demonstration against AIPAC was held outside the convention center, where it was meeting in Washington, D.C. The mega-Israel Lobby convenes annually in this city. One of those speaking out at the anti-AIPAC rally was Orthodox Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss. He is associated with "Orthodox Jews United Against Zionism," and is a member of "Neturei Karta International." See: http://www.nkusa.org/ Rabbi Weiss was sharply critical in his remarks of the ideology of Zionism.
