Portland Protest: Stop genocide, no war on Iran, zionists are terrorists

 

In memory of those dying at the hands of Israel-US-NATO we send our prayers and resolve.... to keep organizing to stop this run-a-way oligarch fascist criminal syndicate... we pledge our resistance to this desperate colonialist attack on Palestine and Iran. But their day in the sun is over. The whole world says so. 

 

 

 

We must stand against these rotten corpses of governments in Washington and beyond. They lie, steal and slaughter anyone who stands in the way of their corrupt agenda. 

Israel today is fighting in Gaza and the West Bank, in Syria, Lebanon, Yemen and now Iran. It's their ugly plan for Greater Israel. It looks like 2025 could be the year of the fall of apartheid zionist/neo-con Israel. 

Of course AIPAC and big corporate donors on Wall Street are the true leaders of this dangerous attempt to create WW3 as their last ditch ploy to take down BRICS+.

But the people of the world are demanding that all governments IMMEDIATELY suspend any relations with the terrorist state of Israel. Tel Aviv has always been the junk yard dog for the western colonial powers as they attempted to take control of the Middle East. 

The Gaza genocide challenges every human on Earth to decide if this mad-cap zionist operation should be allowed to stay in power. Yes or no?

Yesterday we heard alot about Kings Day rallies all over the place. One of the men who came to our protest at Woodford's Corner in Portland had first attended the much bigger Kings Day event in downtown Portland. This activist expressed surprise and disappointment in the rally organized by Democrat party activists. 

He said they were singing the national anthem and giving a cheer to the Army for 250 years of  brutal operations. (The first thought that came to my mind was Wounded Knee.) 

Another activist reported in our closing circle that he earlier ran into US Senator Angus King (I-ME) at the No Kings event up the road in Freeport (home of L. L. Bean). King approached our friend who quickly asked him when he was going to cut the funding for Israel's war machine.

The always smug Angus King is a long time captive of the General Dynamics destroyer shipyard at Bath Iron Works and the Kittery naval submarine repair facility. He loves the proxy war on Russia. 

The two-faced senator, always so humble, told our friend, "I'll think about it".

At lunch after our protest I suggested when folks got back home they ought to write to King and ask him if he was done 'thinking about halting the funding for zionist genocide'. 

I sent King my message via his website. I told him that his disdainful words to my friend made him out to be a small man and a slave to the corporate chain gang. He's an arrogant war monger who hates the rising Palestinian struggle. He's an Israeli agent posing as a US senator. 

I think I heard that Angus King's son was planning to run for governor in Maine. Would they call him Angus II? King's dream of a Maine dynasty must be denied.

Angus King at his charming best in Freeport - most liberals love him. It's all surreal. 

What we know from Iran is that they have taken seriously the declaration of war on them by Israel and the US along with various underlings in UK, Germany, Jordan, Syria (since the orchestrated coup), and various members of the 'royal' Arab states led by Saudi Arabia.   

Last night Iran began their second round of missile strikes throughout Israel. Tel Aviv's Iron Dome repeatedly failed as Iran flooded the zone with decoys, drones and various missiles. Yemen is also firing some missiles into Israel.

Iran and its allies are mostly targeting Israeli military bases, HQ of Mossad, and other likely key military operation centers such as radar and communication stations. The Haifa Oil Refinery was hit in northern occupied Palestine which supplies more than 60% of Israel’s fuel needs, from gasoline and diesel to jet fuel for the Air Force.

China and Russia, plus many other nations, have expressed support for Iran. They all strongly condemn Israel for its arrogant and brutal actions. 

So what does Israel's deep state do next? Will they drop the nukes or just keep the war going until every Palestinian is dead? How long will they bomb Iran? Will the US 'officially' come to save Israel by helping to attack Iran?

That is our world today.

Keep paddling friends,
