The Broome County Sheriff is flying the Israeli rag outside of their building. This is a county government in New York sporting the flag of a racist colony commiting genocide, so we will be outside demanding it gets taken down until it is gone.

Bill Hatton, a Vietnam veteran nearly completely paralyzed by Agent Orange, is anticipating death. His final wish was to protest war with his VFP comrades. His medical condition made that inadvisable. So we decided to come to him, moving our vigil for Gaza near the MN Vets Home.

Eighteen Members of Congress joined me in a letter urging the Trump Administration to stop the Israeli government's mass starvation of Gaza and killing of hungry Palestinians.

If you find yourself defending the bombing of hospitals, take a long look in the mirror.
To those obsessing over hospitals in Gaza:. 🇬🇧 The UK has roughly 1 hospital per 35 square miles. 🇺🇸 The U.S. has 1 hospital per 620 square miles. 🇵🇸 Gaza? 36 hospitals in just 141 square miles—that’s about 1 hospital for every 4 square miles!! Sound wierd to you? It should.

We're outside the UN every day, they ignore us as they always ignore the crimes of states they protect.
The Times has even ignored a current nationwide 40 day fast routed in New York City of veterans in communion with the starving people of Gaza. The veterans demonstrated in front of the United Nations and the New York Times HQ itself a few days ago.

Same old lies. Iraq can't have nukes. Now Iran. Yet Israel and the USA can, 2 nations that have carried out mass murder on unimaginable levels. This is about control and dominance, not safety.
Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. The world will be a safer place once Iran’s nuclear facilities and capabilities are destroyed.

Trump threatened Americans coming to exercise their 1st amendment rights would be met with great force. We are the people who put uniforms on because we believe in the freedoms this country is supposed to be about and we will not be intimidated into silence - Michael McPhearson.

This Saturday, Trump is throwing himself a $45 million military parade for his birthday – using the tax dollars he is cutting from life-saving benefits and social programs. Veterans won’t stand idly by while Trump slashes our benefits and uses the military against protestors.
