Climate Change Demands Immediate Action - 9.10.2026

The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat. It is here, growing more dangerous and affecting people around the world. Record-breaking heat, extreme weather, rising seas and other consequences of climate change remind us that we cannot continue treating this emergency as tomorrow’s problem.

Every fraction of a degree of additional warming matters. Even if humanity cannot completely stop climate change, reducing warming by every tenth of a degree can save lives, protect communities and reduce suffering.

There is also reason for hope. Clean energy is advancing rapidly. Solar power, batteries and other renewable technologies are becoming increasingly affordable. Countries such as China have demonstrated what is possible when governments create large markets for clean energy and invest seriously in the future.

America must accelerate this transition. Citizens, states, cities and businesses should not wait for Washington to act. We must expand solar and wind power, improve energy efficiency and rapidly reduce our dependence on coal, oil and gas.

There is another important lesson: nations do not need to fight wars over sunlight. The sun provides an abundant source of energy for everyone. Cooperation on clean energy can help create prosperity and peace rather than conflict.

The climate emergency is immense, but humanity still has choices. We must choose action over delay, cooperation over conflict, and clean energy over fossil fuels. Our children and grandchildren deserve nothing less. 

Israel’s War Is Destroying Its Own Future - 9.10.2026

The world must not become numb to the killing of innocent human beings.

In Gaza, a Palestinian couple and their two young daughters, just 12 and 8 years old, were killed when their home in Beit Lahia was destroyed

 in an Israeli airstrike. Two children lost their lives in the place where they should have been safest — their home. No political argument and no military objective can make the death of innocent children acceptable.

In the West Bank, Palestinians continue to face raids, detentions, injuries and fear. Families are being forced to live under constant uncertainty about their homes, their freedom and their future.

In Lebanon, Israeli strikes have continued despite a ceasefire, killing civilians, including children and medical workers. The same pattern of violence cannot be allowed to continue without accountability.

The United States and the international community must stop treating Palestinian, Lebanese and Syrian civilian lives as less valuable than any other human lives.

There must also be complete transparency about the investments of public institutions such as CUNY. If public university funds are invested in weapons manufacturers, prison companies or financial institutions connected to settlement activity, the public has a right to know where its money is going.

As America approaches another anniversary of 9/11, truth must matter. Claims about what happened at Ground Zero should be measured against the historical record, eyewitness accounts and available evidence. The victims and first responders deserve honesty, not political mythmaking.

War does not make humanity stronger. Bombs do not create justice. Revenge does not create peace.

Every child in Gaza, every Palestinian in the West Bank, every family in Lebanon and Syria, and every civilian anywhere in the world deserves the same fundamental right — the right to live.

America must demand an end to the killing of civilians, accountability for possible war crimes, transparency in public investments and genuine efforts toward peace.

Human life must come before military power, political loyalty and financial profit.

We must choose peace over war, compassion over hatred, and human dignity over political power.

Israel - The Crisis Did Not Begin On October 7 - 9.9.2026

The Crisis Did Not Begin On October 7, 2023. To Understand Today’s Horror, We Must Look Back To The Founding Of Israel, When Hundreds Of Thousands Of Palestinians Were Displaced During The War Of 1948 And Many Lost Their Homes And Homeland. For Palestinians, The Trauma Did Not Begin On One Day In 2023. It Has Been Shaped By Decades Of Dispossession, Occupation, Settlement Expansion, Home Demolitions And Violence.

October 7 Was A Terrible Day. The Killing Of Israeli Civilians And The Taking Of Hostages Were Wrong. But The Killing Of Innocent People Did Not Begin, And Must Not End, With One Date.

Now Canada, France, The U.K. And Other Nations Have Taken Action Against Trade Connected To Israeli Settlements In The Occupied West Bank. This Is An Important Step, But It Is Not Enough.

The World Has Witnessed The Destruction Of Palestinian Homes, The Expansion Of Settlements And A Humanitarian Catastrophe In Gaza. It Has Also Witnessed The Enormous Military And Political Support Given To Israel By Powerful Western Governments. The United States And European Nations Must Examine Their Own Responsibility When Weapons, Diplomatic Protection And Political Support Continue Despite The Suffering Of Civilians.

There Is Also A Serious Question About Accountability At The Highest Levels Of Israeli Government. A Recent Report Claims That BENJAMIN NETANYAHU Was Warned Before The October 7 Attack. NETANYAHU Denies Receiving Such A Warning. The Truth Must Be Established Through A Genuine, Independent Investigation.

And We Must Remember RACHEL CORRIE, The Young American Peace Activist Who Was Killed In Gaza In 2003 While Taking Nonviolent Action To Protect The Home Of A Palestinian Family From Demolition. Her Death Became A Symbol Of The Human Cost Of Occupation And Of Those Who Risk Their Lives To Defend Others.

A Government Cannot Claim The Moral High Ground While Ignoring The Humanity Of Another People. Democracy Means More Than Elections. It Requires Equality, Accountability, Human Rights And Respect For The Law. The Rise Of Far-Right And Ultra-Nationalist Forces Within Israel’s Government Makes These Principles Even More Urgent.

The World Must Stop Treating Palestinian Lives As Less Valuable Than Other Lives. Starvation, Collective Punishment, Forced Displacement And The Destruction Of Civilian Life Must Never Be Accepted As The Price Of Security.

The Time Has Come For Truth About October 7, Truth About The Long History That Preceded It, Accountability For All Crimes Against Civilians And An End To The Occupation And Violence.

Every Israeli Child And Every Palestinian Child Has The Same Right To Live In Peace, Safety And Dignity.

Twenty-Five Years Later, 9/11 Still Demands Answers - 9.9.2026

I support Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s demand for the release of previously hidden or classified 9/11 documents. While the 9/11 Commission Report was released in 2004, important records concerning the attacks and their foreign connections remained classified for years, fueling legitimate questions from Victims’ Families.

Why were 15 of the 19 hijackers Saudi nationals? What did U.S. intelligence agencies know, and when did they know it? Why have families of the victims continued demanding greater transparency and accountability?

The tragedy did not end on September 11, 2001. Firefighters, First Responders, Flight Attendants, Healthcare Workers, and countless other New Yorkers were exposed to toxic air and suffered devastating illnesses.

Many Victims’ Families believe their health concerns were subordinated to economic and Wall Street considerations during the George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Rudy Giuliani, and Whitman years. Those decisions deserve scrutiny—not silence.

Victims’ Families deserve justice, transparency, and appropriate compensation. After twenty-five years, America must finally tell the whole truth.

Twenty-five years after 9/11, release all hidden records. ictims’ families deserve truth, accountability, healthcare, and justice—not secrecy. 

Words Are Not Enough: Stop Settler Terror In The West Bank - 9.8.2026

U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee deserves credit for calling attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank an “act of terror.” But Words alone will not protect Palestinian Families whose Homes are burned, Property is destroyed, and Communities are terrorized.

The real Test is what comes next.

Will Mike Huckabee demand that Israeli Authorities arrest and prosecute those responsible? Will he insist that Palestinian Civilians receive the same Protection afforded to Israeli Civilians? And will the United States use its enormous Political, Military, and Financial influence to stop these attacks?

There can be no meaningful commitment to Human Rights while Violence against Palestinians is condemned with Words but tolerated in Practice.

The United States must demand Accountability for Settler Violence, Protection for Palestinian Civilians, and an end to Impunity. Anyone who terrorizes innocent Families must face Justice, regardless of Nationality or Political connections.

Mike Huckabee has identified the Problem. Now he must help end it.

The World is watching. Palestinian Lives Matter. Human Rights Must Matter. Justice Must Apply To Everyone.

Netanyahu Is Stained By The Bloodshed Of Innocent Palestinians - 9.8.2026

Benjamin Netanyahu Bears Political Responsibility For A Devastating Campaign In Which Innocent Palestinians, Especially Children, Have Been Killed. The Continuing Bloodshed Must Not Be Normalized Or Excused.

Jewish Ethical And Religious Traditions Have Long Emphasized The Sanctity Of Human Life. No Political Or Military Objective Can Justify The Deliberate Killing Of Innocent Civilians.

Each Day Of Continued Bloodshed Brings Benjamin Netanyahu Closer To A Day Of Judgment—Not Only In A Court Of Law, But In The Judgment Of History.

Those Who Enable Or Support Policies That Harm Civilians, Including AIPAC And Other Powerful Advocates, Must Demand Accountability Rather Than Silence. Support For Israel Must Never Mean A Blank Check For Actions That Endanger Innocent Lives.

The IDF, Israeli Settlers, And All Armed Groups Must Be Held Accountable When They Violate International Law And Attack Civilians. Justice Must Apply To Everyone, Regardless Of Nationality Or Political Power.

It Is Tragic That So Many People Ignore Voices Calling For Peace, Justice, And Human Rights, Including Amy Goodman, Host Of Democracy Now!

The Answer To Violence Cannot Be More Violence. It Must Be Accountability, Justice, Equality, And An End To The Killing Of Innocent People.

Stop terrorizing immigrant Families in Danbury - 9.7.2026

The reports of aggressive ICE enforcement in Danbury, Connecticut, should shock the conscience of every American.

When Immigration Agents operate near School Bus stops and children may witness parents being detained, the consequences reach far beyond Immigration Enforcement. they strike at the safety, dignity and emotional security of Children and Families.

No child should have to wonder whether a Parent will disappear while they are boarding a School Bus. no Family should live in fear that an ordinary trip to School, work or the grocery store could become a traumatic encounter with federal agents.

The United States is a Nation of laws, but it must also be a Nation of humanity. Immigration Laws should be enforced with due process, transparency and respect for human dignity—not through intimidation that terrorizes entire Communities.
