*BREAKING NEWS - NEW CAMPAIGN STARTS*

SEA SHEPHERD AND OCEAN ALLIANCE JOIN FORCES IN OPERATION TOXIC GULF

"It has now been three years since the BP toxic waste catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico, yet to date we continue to minimize it by referring to it as the Gulf Spill. A spill generally occurs when you knock over your drink or when you overfill your car’s fuel tank. The 200 million gallons (plus) of crude oil that were released into the Gulf between April 20th and July 15th 2010 hardly fall in this category. On top of that the 2 million gallons of chemical dispersants BP used to break up and sink the oil, only further aggravated the disaster, by dispersing the oil into the food chain and making the oil up to 52 times more toxic...

Six hours. This is how long Palestinians have to wait before they can pass the “terminal” at Tarqumia in the West Bank, which leads either into "Israel" or, eventually on to the Gaza Strip.

On This Day: In 1767 Lieutenant Samuel Wallis became the first European to spot and land in Tahiti. He landed his ship the HMS Dolphin in Matavai Bay, situated on the territory of the chiefdom of Pare (Arue/Mahina), governed by the female chieftain "Oberea" (Purea). Wallis, upon landing, named the island King George Island. When the Tahitians came out to greet the ship, Wallis feared an attack and opened fire on the canoes and the crowds in the hills, killing many Tahitians. Soon, however, it was realized that the Tahitians were trying to establish peaceful contact, as they were unfamiliar with non-Polynesian people. As you can see in this painting, the European version of this historic event continues to be perpetuated, in which Wallis is innocent and the Tahitians are accused of attacking him.

On This Day: In 1877 the Battle of White Bird Canyon took place in Idaho Territory. The battle was the opening battle of the war with the Nez Perce nation and represented a significant defeat of the U.S. Army. Outnumbered two to one and fighting uphill with inferior weapons, the Nez Perce used their intuitive fighting skills to win the first battle of the Nez Perce war and defeat General Oliver O. Howard.

Understanding the Turkish Demonstrations
by Harold Rhode: an American specialist on the Middle East. He worked as an analyst at the Pentagon for 28 years

Turkey, although nominally part of the West, is in most ways culturally closer to the Middle East. Turks live with pent-up grievances -- as do we all -- but with virtually no way to resolve them. People in a supposedly democratic Turkey are reluctant to air their grievances even in public surveys out of fear their government might take revenge on them. During the past few years, people in Turkey have been saying that they are petrified to speak to others, write things, or talk freely on the telephone for fear they will be arrested. At present, Turkey has more journalists in jail than any other country.

TURKEY, #gezipark  

About 10 people threw fire bombs at the police vehicles. But they were bearing police guns. They were not protesters they were civilian police – just to provoke people to attack police - but people didn’t do that. Actually they want to show protesters as violent people, but all the protesters left the square and went to Gezi Park.
Gezi Park protester Bilal Oguz, a 31-year-old engineer, insisted that all those who threw petrol bombs today were plain clothes policemen.
