“How many times, then, will Western journalists allow themselves to be fooled by Israeli propaganda – by military denials that later collapse under the weight of evidence?”
Israel’s Military Now Accepts 70,000 Killed in Gaza – But Why Did Our Media Let Them Get Away With Denying It for So Long?
I have spent the past two years debating the credibility of the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers with supporters of Israel. It turns out the Israeli military agrees with me, not them.

A street portrait by the amazing Vivian Maier, an astoundingly gifted photographer unknown until after her death in 2009. This photograph was taken in Chicago on May 16, 1957. In a bus or train waiting room perhaps?

Right now, it seems a good moment to recall the famous last stanza of Sir Richard Lovelace's poem, "To Althea: From Prison."
Lovelace may have been a royalist, but his poem speaks to the a spirit of defiance in all those who oppose tyranny and injustice, whether crowned or empty-headed.

Late night at the Eagle. Bondage, sweet bondage. Oh San Pantaleaõ, my pantless saint! Martyrdom has never seemed so calm, so sweet. Even Modesty's rumpled napkin is decorous, symmetrical, replete.

Mad King Donald's letter to the Prime Minister of Norway. It should be EXHIBIT #1 in removal of a mentally incompetent President under the 25th Amendment.
EXHBIT #2 King Don's punishment of American consumers by instituting new tariffs (sales taxes we pay) on the products from Europe we want.

As #Trump threatens today to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy U.S. troops in #Minnesota (after having provoked civil unrest by surging 3,000 #ICE agents to that state), it would be a good idea to educate ourselves about this dangerously vague legislation.

Monument to Charles Turner Torrey at Mount Auburn Cemetery in Cambridge.
A Yale graduate and abolitionist, Torrey went to Baltimore to help enslaved people escape. He was stalked by the police, captured, convicted, and died in prison in 1846.
One of the few white abolitionists John Brown respected
