General Dynamics protest in Saco, Maine

 

 



Yesterday a dozen folks gathered in Saco, Maine for two hours as the 2nd shift of General Dynamics workers let out. GD is building bomb parts for Israeli via gifts from the Biden-Harris war team.

We got really good responses from the large amount of traffic on the two-lane road in front of the weapons plant.

Several new people showed up. One woman talked about how she can't stand anymore the 'polite dinner conversation' of her family and friends who avoid talking about the genocide now happening in Palestine and Lebanon by the zionist forces in US-Israel.

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike on Beirut yesterday by Israel, along with several other commanders.

This Israeli terrorism (with total support from Washington and NATO) is pushing the Middle East closer and closer to full-blown war.

After Israel's 'pager attack' on Lebanon I don't believe it is now so difficult for most Americans to wrap their head around calling Israel a terrorist state. Evidence was confirmed for me while holding my new sign 'Stop funding Israeli terrorism' yesterday in Saco and then later in the afternoon back in my hometown of Brunswick for our Friday weekly vigil.

I got many honks and waves about this sign and very, very few negatives. 

Israel's killing of Nasrallah likely indicates that Netanyahu will soon launch a ground invasion into southern Lebanon. Israel very badly wants control of the Litani River and to return their thousands of settlers who fled northern Palestine since the war began. Israel also wishes to drag the US into the war in hopes it will allow then to attack Iran as they are now doing in Syria, Palestine and Lebanon.

The zionists decision to code-name Friday’s attack on Nasrallah 'New Order' is an obvious reference to Israel’s goal of reshaping the political and security dynamics in Lebanon as another step toward the creation of 'Greater Israel'. This is a key to the western colonizers strategy of using Israel as the blunt force to combat the growing 'Global South' movement across the Middle East. Just as Ukraine serves a similar role for US-NATO in eastern Europe.

I will keep returning to the street as often as possible in order to help those who are emotionally shut down to come back alive and allow themselves to honor their real feelings about the US-Israeli genocide now happening before our eyes.

It's all about being human again....
