Activists Assaulted At Hawaii State Capitol (4/29/2010)
BREAKING NEWS! State settles suit by protester for $100000 www.staradvertiser.com On April 29, 2010, activists Mitch Kahle and Kevin Hughes were assaulted by Ben Villaflor, the Senate Sergeant-At-Arms, and State Sheriff's Deputies, for objecting to unconstitutional Christian prayers used to begin each session of the Hawaii State Legislature. Hughes was injured in the attack and was taken to the hospital for x-rays and treatment. Kahle was arrested and prosecuted, but was ultimately vindicated when Judge Leslie Hayashi found Kahle "NOT GUILTY" and ruled that: "The Senate's [Christian] prayers violate the constitutional separation of church and state."

Wall Street Activist Owns Fox News Producer, Fox Bury Interview 2011
Even if Geraldo Rivera was at the Zuccotti Park yesterday, Fox News has generally been a tad dismissive of the Occupy Wall Street movement. Foxnews.com (as of this writing) has no coverage of this national event on their front page stories. (Hard to imagine for a network that was so gung-ho about the Tea Party!) Red Eye's Bill Schulz went out to try to "prank" the protesters. Bill O'Reilly sent a producer minion out with the same mission: to belittle OWS's cause by cutting up interviews to make people sound stupid. Well, here is an interview that Fox News filmed, but doesn't want you to see. The segment was shot on Wednesday for Greta van Susteren's show, (though it looks like the same producer from this O'Reilly segment questioning Michael Moore's anti-capitalist agenda) though the decision was made to leave it on the cutting room floor. The reason should be obvious pretty quickly. The speaker giving Fox News the buisness is Jesse LaGreca, a vocal member of the Occupy Wall Street protests. This video comes courtesy of Kyle Christopher from OccupyWallSt.org's media team. Now, no news organization is under obligation to air every interview they've filmed, especially when it makes them look bad. But you'd think that a "Fair and Balanced" network (that tells an interviewee that they are here to give them fair coverage to get any message they'd like to get out) would try to include at least a couple of opposing viewpoints to Mr. Shulz's smarmy jokes or O'Reilly's ...

Jewish activist to AIPAC: Stop Silencing Dissent!
On March 4, 2012, 22 year old member of Young Jewish and Proud (the youth wing of Jewish Voice for Peace) Liza Behrendt stood up at the 2012 AIPAC Policy Conference in a breakout session called "The Struggle to Secure Israel on Campus" to call attention to the silencing of Palestinians— and young Jews who support them — on US campuses. This action was part of OCCUPY AIPAC. www.occupyaipac.org This effort to draw attention to the silencing of Palestinians and young Jewish activists is part of a weekend long series of activities to highlight the destructive practices of AIPAC. A separate group of Jewish activists from Jews Say No and Just Foreign Policy went inside the AIPAC conference and gave interviews to journalists, in which they stressed that AIPAC doesn't represent the majority of American Jews who oppose war with Iran and who want the US to oppose settlement expansion in the West Bank. Activists held daylong protests outside the AIPAC conference. Timed to coincide with the AIPAC policy conference, Occupy AIPAC (www.occupyaipac.org) is a coalition effort led by CODEPINK: Women for Peace and cosponsored by over 130 organizations, including Jewish Voice for Peace, Interfaith Peace Builders, Jews Say No, Just Foreign Policy, US Palestinian Community Network and the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation. The purpose of the week of actions is to urge Obama to reject the Israeli administration's push for war on Iran, insist on respect for Palestinian rights, and draw ...
Activists Occupy AIPAC with message to Congress: No War On Iran
***Take Action: Tell Congress and Obama: No War On Iran! Sign the petition at www.occupyaipac.org*** An AIPAC Policy Conference panel titled "Stopping Iran" had some unexpected speakers: activists with Occupy AIPAC and CODEPINK who stood up and "mic checked" Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Israeli Ambassador Jeremy Issacharoff. At about 2pm on March 5, four activists called out AIPAC for pushing for American support for an Israeli attack on Iran. One activist was violently attacked by an AIPAC member who used his tie to strangle the peaceful protester. Later in the afternoon two activists unfurled a "Don't Bomb Iran" banner inside the AIPAC hall. Security promptly pushed them out of the hall, and also forcefully removed an AIPAC delegate who had nothing to do with the action, but was taken out for being a bystander. The full People's Microphone inside the panel said: "Mic check! Ros-Lehtinen is pushing war based on lies. We are the 99% Wars benefit the 1% Don't bomb Iran! Diplomacy not bombs. AIPAC supports endless war. We support peace. Occupy Wall Street not Iran. Occupy Wall Street not Palestine. No war on Iran." The Occupy AIPAC coalition is gathering to urge Obama to reject the Israeli administration's push for war on Iran and insist on respect for Palestinian rights. Timed to coincide with the annual AIPAC policy conference from March 3-6, Occupy AIPAC aims to draw attention to the dangerous role of AIPAC as a special interest lobby that maintains a ...

A Blog Activist's Tale with Raja Petra Kamarudin (RPK)
Raja Petra Kamarudin, founder and editor of online news blog Malaysia Today, gives this lecture entitled 'Beating Malaysian Authoritarianism with People Power: A Blog Activist's Tale' at The Australian National University on 2 March 2011 . RPK (as he's usually known online) is Malaysia's most famous online political activist, and a forceful advocate of transparent, accountable government. His website Malaysia Today hosts many allegedly official documents detailing government corruption and scandal. He speaks as chairman of the Malaysian Civil Liberties Movement (MCLM), which is now working towards full representation in Malaysia's 13th general election. MCLM wants to revive and re-engage Malaysians disillusioned with an UMNO-dominated federal government and return them to a government that holds fast to the spirit and intent of the Constitution. With the next general elections looming this year, there's a palpable sense of urgency. MCLM is driven by human rights lawyers and other professionals, political veterans, civil society activists and ordinary citizens with social justice in their sights, targeting a corruption-free, transparent government, free and fair elections and the end to racial politics.

Syrian Man Buried Alive By Assad Loyalists Check out my website:www.bnelsonblog1.com Twitter Bnelson911twitter.com Facebook: Add me: www.facebook.com A DISTURBING image has emerged from the bloody skirmishes in war-torn Syria, in a video showing a man begging for his life while he's buried alive at gunpoint. The Syrian rebel is buried up to his neck and surrounded by soldiers, said to be Bashar al-Assad loyalists. The shocking footage, which has not yet been verified, comes after a major blast in the flashpoint city of Hama that may have killed as many as 68 people, with the rebels calling for an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council. According to Al Jazeera, the opposition Local Coordination Committees said security forces fired a rocket at a building in a working class district of Hama on Wednesday. The Syrian state news agency said the explosion was caused by anti-government bomb makers. See the video above. Warning: Graphic footage The London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least 12 people were killed but activists on the ground put the death toll as high as 68, including 16 children, AFP reported. One Hama resident and activist told Al Jazeera, "Many of the victims are women and children. People are dying because we don't have the necessary medical equipment or expertise to save those injured."

Police Drugging Occupy Minnesota Activists Goes Viral!
Video documentation by local activists and independent media shows that police officers and county deputies from across Minnesota have been picking up young people near Peavey Plaza for a training program to recognize drug-impaired drivers. Multiple participants say officers gave them illicit drugs and provided other incentives to take the drugs. The Occupy movement, present at Peavey Plaza since April 7th, appears to be targeted as impaired people are dropped off at the Plaza, and others say they've been rewarded for offering to snitch on the movement. Local independent media activists and members of Communities United Against Police Brutality began investigating police conduct around the Plaza after witnessing police dropping off impaired people at the plaza and hearing rumors that they were offering people drugs. We videotaped police conduct and interviewed participants, learning some very disturbing information about the DRE program. Officers stated on record the DRE program, run by the Minnesota State Patrol, has no Institutional Review Board or independent oversight. They agreed no ambulances or EMTs were on site at the Richfield MnDOT facility near the airport where most subjects were taken. Multiple times, participants left Peavey Plaza sober, returned intoxicated, and said they'd been given free drugs by law enforcement. We documented on more than one occasion, someone being told they were sober by one officer, and then picked up by a different officer, and ...
