Back on the air: The McLaughlin Group 6/3/18--Woof
Everyone is so excited to see The McLaughlin Group back on the air. Do you think John McLaughlin would be proud? It seems like so many people loved him.
We loved John at the ronnie re.
As all of the folks out there are chatting about The Group being back on television can a few words be mentioned about the Palestine Pups.
This very lovely group of dogs are all looking for that special home.
Are you able to run over to Tel Aviv and pick one up. It is actually quite reasonable from the UK but if you cannot get over there any time soon can you do everything possible to get the word out.
Here is a post about Diana George Babish and her animal shelter in Bethlehem--feel free to share this info in any way and if anyone has any suggestions please jump in. They are all lovely dogs and they all need a home.
Here is the post:

Do You Like Dogs.........#LovePalestine
Palestine Pups are in need of a good home.
Do you like dogs........
Would you like to find a home for some very lovely individuals--friendly, cute and in need of that special someone who can provide a safe and loving place to stay.
Your companion is waiting in Bethlehem.
They live in the animal shelter of Diana George Babish.
She is working very hard to find homes for these creatures she has rescued from the streets of this occupied area.
The people in Palestine are struggling just to meet their needs of everyday life under a confining rule.
The dogs and cats are suffering, as well.
Diana George Babish has kindly helped dogs that have been abandoned or even poisoned.
Her dogs can be easily transported from Tel Aviv.
She will provide all of the papers and kennel necessary for transportation.
Believe it or not it is less expensive to go and get the dog than ship this animal as cargo.
Here is her facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/diana.babish
Contact her on Facebook or send a message to find out more particulars.
Maybe you cannot go and get a dog right now but can you put the word out.
What do you think?
Can you help these Palestine Pups.

This pup had a serious skin condition--Diana worked very hard to get his coat healthy and now he is going to a good home in Sweden.
This is my dog Coco. She was on her own in Mexico. In San Diego we have several groups that rescue dogs from this area but the problem in Bethlehem is isolation by location and politics.
Here is a link to more photos of dogs and the shelter:

The Killing Fields of Gaza by Fred Schlomka of Green Olive Tours
The Killing Fields of Gaza
- by Fred Schlomka - - 20th May, 2018 -
Gaza continues to be desperate. Your help is needed.
Imagine a giant prison bounded by the sea on one side, and fences and walls on the other three sides. The original prison guards were thrown out in 1967, and the new prison guards evacuated themselves in 2006, retreating to the prison borders, sealing it off except for a few heavily guarded entrances, fortresses along the prison’s land border, and gunboats patrolling the shoreline. Since then few have been allowed to enter or exit. A bare minimum of goods are permitted to enter, barely enough to allow the subsistence for the inmates.
One of the prison gangs took over the management of the prison, and terrorised the inmates into compliance with their demands. Rival gangs have sent a some small rockets over the fence, causing little property damage and almost no casualties. This results in remote retaliatory attacks by the prison guards via drones, rockets and bombs. Most of the prison inmates live in fear, from the Israelis, from Hamas, and of destitution and despair. There is little hope for the future
The 2 million inmates of Gaza have no citizenship - no state - no freedom.
Over the past two months, tens of thousands of people come to the fence every Friday to protest their plight. A few try and approach the fence. Some burn tires and throw stones across the fence. The vast majority stay at a distance. It seems likely that these protests are organised by Hamas. It’s also possible that Hamas is orchestrating and planning for the eventual killings, by managing teams of people who are trained and instructed to approach the fence. And yes, there were a few visible armed protesters.
Israel set up teams of snipers and is playing its part by shooting them down. It’s all very predictable. Just a last week, about 60 people were killed in a calculated manner by these snipers. It’s a turkey shoot.
Much of the foreign media mirrors the official Israeli use of words like ‘clashes’ or ‘riots, describing the protestors as ‘terrorists’. Terminology is used to imply that Israelis are at risk, and the fence might be breached. Israel fuels this misconception by massing troops along the Gaza border, backed by teams of paramilitary police.
CNN International said that the ‘clashes’ resulted in ‘deaths’, as if they were acts of God, yet also allowed that ‘Many of them caused by Israeli fire’. Even Israel’s liberal Haaretz newspaper called the protest a ‘clash’.
There were no ‘clashes’. Every Palestinian was murdered on their own side of the fence by Israeli snipers on the Israeli side of the fence. No protesters came in close contact with any Israeli soldier, not was there any possibility of this happening.
Every Palestinian murder was a calculated decision of an Israeli sniper or his/her immediate commander, in accordance with their rules of engagement which allows the killing of unarmed Palestinians who are causing no immediate danger to anyone.
These tactics are the same as used by colonial empires of bygone eras and other authoritarian regimes of today, which prohibit any actions by disenfranchised people protesting their rule. The British likewise conducted lethal reprisals against protests by their subject peoples in India and Africa. China has more recently followed suit. Israel has learned well.
Non-violent protests are especially feared by the state of Israel, and every effort is made to ensure that violence ensues, thus justifying the killings, at least in Israel’s worldview.
Make no mistake. If Israel wanted to use non-lethal means to drive back the few hundred protesters that approach the fence, then it has sufficient means at it’s disposal, notably water cannon and tear gas. However it also serves Israel’s purpose to conduct these killings.
Israel also needs to learn that murderous repression of protest never has the desired results in the long term. Palestinian steadfastness will not be contained by murder and slaughter. Ultimately the likes of Hamas and the Zionist regime will be tossed in the dustbin of history, and the liberation of the people of Palestine and Israel will be realised. In the meanwhile people are being killed.
Your support is critical at this time. Here’s what you can do:
- Contact the nearest Israeli Embassy to protest the actions of the IDF
- Organise a protest outside your nearest Israeli consulate or Embassy
- Join an organisation in your locale that is active in these issues
- Contact your political representatives to exert pressure on the Israeli government.
- Encourage your friends and relatives to come and visit Israel/Palestine, and bear witness to the events that are unfolding.
- Organise a group to come on a study tour.
In Peace,

Thank you, Fred, for taking time to share with us these very important words and your thoughts on this issue.
from cl:
Just returning from a visit to the area and wanting to let everyone know the food was delicious, the countryside was lovely, biking through hills of almond and olive groves and the hospitality was something to write home about.
Always wanting to visit the city after the tour going to Ramallah on my own was fun and interesting. It is easy to see the city because it is small and not difficult to navigate. The shop keepers are friendly, often offering coffee and a sample of their goods--please visit the candy shops.
The Arafat Museum was very well done--recomending it to anyone interested in this very famous person who holds the heart of the Palestinians.
Area D Hostel is a good price, the people there are very willing to answer questions and take time to chat and the breakfast is particularly nice and well worth the price. The gentleman that serves it is a good cook.
Area D Hostel is right across from the bus station so it is very easy to get back to Jerusalem and then go to the airport from there.
Do not miss the vendors with the cups of corn with lemon, spices, salt and butter and the falafel shops.

Dogs helping dogs in Palestine:
Recently in Ramallah after touring the area with Bike Palestine. People kept asking my opinion of the donald and voicing their frustrations with his lack of respect for the Arab Counties and moving the embassy to Jerusalem.
In Bethlehem I had the opportunity to visit Dianna George Babish and her animal shelter and right nextdoor the Palestine Wildlife Society and Imad Qumsieh.
Just wanted to tell everyone about these two Palestinian heroes working to help the animals of this area.
If anyone has any suggestions for promotion or how to help these very hard working individuals please jump in with your ideas.......
here is a link to my story:
All of these dogs need homes and they are very lovely dogs, too.
Please spread the word and thank you for reading.
Thank you,
