Noam was brilliant, as always. The code for the player was evidently over the limit for this format.

Click below to listen. I was asked by people yesterday to provide the podcast, forgive my brevist in this post....

I had to work over and am exhausted.

It is really amazing that a tiny left wing blogger has retained Noam Chomsky in order to bring his brilliance to the "working class Left" as my friend refers to herself. This will be tomorrow at 6pm EST.

This will be an amazing interview, and I cannot wait to hear my lifelong friend Diane have a chance to mine the brilliant mind of the author of over 150 books, and a lifetime of activism.

I wonder how in face of the unfolding witness proof and video, anyone can defend what happened on the Mavi Marmara.

This is video of how Furkan Dogan died:

This 19 year old boy was down, kicked, and then shot 5 times at close range while on the deck.

This was not "defense" against an equally armed enemy. This is an execution of an American Humanitarian Aid Volunteer.

How is this any less subhuman behavior than beheadings by Al Queda? Less grisly, perhaps, but equally barbaric.

(Or How to Demand dKos Harass Palestinians)

It appears we have one single voice harassing dKos to ban anyone who reports on Israel's actions or advocates for fair and human treatment for the Palestinian people.

Karmafish has decided to single handedly define what the Democratic Left may speak about. And more importantly, what we may not speak about.

Here and here.

UPDATE: And for the love of Billybush, "elsewhere in his daily comment history in I/P on dkos"...

It gets more complex than that, it is an attempt at thought-policing, for he decides the "intent" of the people post such diaries and unjustly brands them haters of Jews. By that mindreading standard, he is trying to push the Overton Window of what the Left can say through only a filter of his own making.

UPDATED: All images found and used below from google are courtesy of electablog, from his awesome blog of the same name's post,"The Tea Party Express ORGY OF ANGER" Much thanks, and be sure to read his take and give him some luv!

We parked at Mexican Jones, a small and empty restaurant I worked for at one time, when it was thriving. In the very back of the lot, there was a neglected trellis that lead to the almost invisible path that follows the waterway along the back of the business district to the Mill Pond where the "festivities" awaited.

We could hear the roar of the crowd, and the speakers a mile out. My 10 year old was nervous. "We have to walk through all that Mom? They'll kill us," he said laughing, but with the tinges of fear in his voice. I assured him we would be fine, as we came around the bend into the open where our wet footsteps squeaked on the slippery boardwalk that went over the swampy creek leading to the pond.
