“For God’s Sake Joe,

What the Hell Are

You Doing?”

“From U.S. military attacks on Syria, Iraq, and Yemen to the related complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza and settler violence in the West Bank, Biden’s course of action is a danger to U.S. national security.” The above words are from an article written by Hawaii resident Ann Wright, Retired US Army Colonel and former Diplomat. See https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/joe-biden-middle-east-policy-gaza

Biden Wants Billions More For Israel to Continue its Genocide of Gaza!

                                                              

  What Donald Trump may be thinking: If the 2000 election wasn’t stolen…  I would have launched WWIII sooner — against China for starting the Global China Virus. Still, WWIII started by senile Genocide Joe might keep me out of jail.  There will be no more jails with a nuclear war.

CEASEFIRE NOW! Before the whole world ignites!   

   Stop sending weapons to Israel for Genocide!       

2024: What a Choice!

Senile Genocide Joe vs. Adolf Mussolini Trump!

1 . Mourn all victims of violence. 2. Reject violence & war as solutions. 3. Defend civil liberties.

End the Cycle of Violence

Tuesday, January 30th, 2024

End the Cycle of Violence!

     Joe Biden said “We Shall Respond” to a recent drone attack that killed 3 US military troops at a US base in Jordan and wounded dozens more. This attack on a US base (the US has more than 750 bases in 80 countries throughout the world) is part of the escalating pattern of violence in the Middle East. The US is providing a massive amount of weapons to Israel in its genocidal policies against Palestinians in Gaza. In a little more than 100 days, Israel‘s bombardment with US weapons has killed or wounded more than 100,000 Palestinians, displaced more than 90% of the 2.3 million population of Gaza, and caused massive destruction of homes, hospitals, schools, and even refugee centers. Much of the population is now facing starvation. Anger in much of the world is growing against the genocidal policies of Israel and the US. Violence is increasing and the war is widening. More violence is NOT the answer. What is needed? An immediate and permanent Ceasefire in Gaza; an end to all US military aid to Israel, an end to the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine, a two-state solution, and a massive humanitarian inflow of aid to Gaza.

     The US spends over a TRILLION dollars a year on its war machine, more than the next 10 countries combined. Much of the money is hidden such as Billions per year for nuclear weapons in the US Energy budget and billions for interest on the national debt due to US imperial wars. Meanwhile, the number of poor, homeless, and others in desperate need continues to grow. Here in Hilo, Hawaii in the past 2 weeks, a poor homeless woman in need of mental health care gave birth on a sidewalk within 30 minutes of a homeless man dying from an assault less than a block away. Days later nearby homeless encampments were swept by Hawaii county officials to make way for the display of the visiting Vietnam War Memorial “Wall that Heals.” That wall includes the names of 58,281 Americans who died in that war. No mention of the more than 60,000 US Vietnam vets who committed suicide since that war nor the millions of Vietnamese, Laotians, and Cambodians killed by the US in that war of corporate global domination.

     It’s time to reset priorities and end our addiction to war. Stop the cycle of violence. Stop funding and glorifying war. Fund unmet human needs. Our Malu ‘Aina Peace Farm has been an emergency food pantry for more than 42 years, and the situation keeps getting worse. When will we ever learn?

War Kills! Peace Heals!
