America Must Choose Peace Over Another Endless War - 9.28.2026

Iran Is Once Again Seeking Clarification About A Cease-Fire Proposal After President Trump Rejected It. This Should Force Americans To Ask A Fundamental Question: How Many More Lives Must Be Lost Before Diplomacy Finally Takes Priority Over War?

The History Cannot Be Ignored. In 1953, The United States And Britain Helped Overthrow Iran’s Democratically Elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddeq And Restore The Shah. The Shah’s Brutal Rule Helped Create The Conditions That Exploded Into The 1979 Iranian Revolution And The Hostage Crisis That Followed.

Today, Another War Is Bringing Death, Destruction, And Economic Pain. At Least 19 American Service Members Have Been Killed And More Than 830 Wounded. Oil Prices Have Surged, Fuel Costs Are Hurting Families, And The Consequences Are Being Felt Far Beyond The Middle East.

Meanwhile, Serious Questions Have Been Raised About Senator Susan Collins And Allegations That Campaign Contributions Were Connected To Efforts To Secure Federal Contracts. These Allegations Deserve Full Public Investigation, Especially When Taxpayer Money Is Involved..

Americans, Including Many Who Supported President Trump, Have Every Right To Ask Why Their Tax Dollars Are Funding More War While Families Face Higher Costs At Home.

America Needs Leaders Who Protect American Lives, Respect Taxpayers, And Pursue Peace Before More Blood Is Shed.

The World Does Not Need Another Endless War. It Needs Courageous Diplomacy, Accountability, And Peace.

The Hague Group And The International Criminal Court - 9.26.2026

South Africa Is Leading The Hague Group In Defending The International Criminal Court Against Political Pressure And What It Describes As “Unilateral Bullying” By The United States And Israel.

The Principle At Stake Is Fundamental: No Government Should Be Above International Law, And No Country Should Be Able To Intimidate An Independent Court Because It Dislikes Its Investigations Or Decisions.

The International Criminal Court Was Created To Pursue Accountability For The Gravest International Crimes. Its Authority Should Not Depend On The Political Power Of Those Being Investigated.

The Hague Group’s Effort Is A Reminder That International Justice Requires Courage, Independence, And Collective Action. If Powerful Governments Can Punish Or Threaten International Institutions Whenever Their Actions Are Questioned, The Very Idea Of Equal Justice Is Put At Risk.

South Africa And Its Partners Are Standing For A Principle That Belongs To All Humanity: The Rule Of Law Must Apply Equally To The Powerful And The Weak.

The World Should Defend Independent International Justice, Reject Political Intimidation, And Stand Against Impunity Wherever It Occurs.

Daniel Levy Describes Netanyahu’s U.N. Speech As “Grotesque” - 9.25.2026

Netanyahu’s U.N. Speech And Israel’s Impunity

Daniel Levy, A Former Israeli Negotiator, Has Described The Situation Surrounding Netanyahu’s United Nations Speech As “Grotesque.” His Criticism Raises A Larger Question: How Long Can Any Government Act Without Meaningful Accountability When Its Policies Cause Such Widespread Human Suffering?

The United Nations Was Created To Uphold Human Rights, International Law, And The Dignity Of Every Human Being. Yet The Continuing Suffering Of Civilians Demands More Than Speeches And Diplomatic Statements. It Demands Accountability, Restraint, And A Genuine Commitment To Peace.

No Government Should Be Above International Law. The Lives Of Palestinian And Israeli Civilians Must Be Valued Equally. The World’s Leaders Should Demand An End To Impunity And Insist That Human Rights And International Law Apply To Everyone.

Peace Cannot Be Built On Endless Violence Or Exemption From Accountability. It Requires Courage, Justice, Compassion, And Respect For The Equal Worth Of Every Human Life.

Netanyahu’s U.N. Speech Cannot Hide The Human Cost Of Impunity. No Government Should Be Above International Law. Every Human Life Deserves Equal Dignity.

Netanyahu and the United Nations - 9.25.2026

When Netanyahu addressed the United Nations, dozens of delegations walked out rather than remain in the chamber. Outside the United Nations, more than 100 protesters were arrested during a sit-in organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, calling for an end to U.S. support for Israel.

Among those arrested were actors Susan Sarandon and Hannah Einbinder, who joined others in peacefully protesting policies and actions they believe have caused devastating suffering in Gaza.

These events raise a profound question: what does international justice mean if powerful leaders can defend military actions at the United Nations while peaceful protesters are arrested for demanding an end to violence?

The United Nations was created to advance peace, human rights and human dignity. Governments must be held accountable when civilian lives are endangered, regardless of their power or political influence.

The peaceful actions of Jewish Voice for Peace, Susan Sarandon, Hannah Einbinder and others demonstrate the importance of dissent in defense of human rights.

No government should be above international law, and no human life should be valued less than another. The world must protect peaceful protest, demand accountability and insist that Palestinian, Israeli and every human life has equal value. Peace requires courage, compassion and justice.

Bernie Sanders, a Jewish senator, and the ICC - 9.24.2026

Sanders has strongly supported accountability for Benjamin Netanyahu. In November 2024, after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu, Sanders said, “I agree with the decisions of the ICC.” He specifically cited the ICC charges involving the alleged use of starvation as a method of warfare and attacks against civilians.

Sanders has repeatedly described Netanyahu as a war criminal and has argued that international law must apply equally to everyone, including democratically elected leaders.

This is an important principle: no government or leader should be above international law.

The suffering of innocent Palestinians must not be ignored, and alleged war crimes must be investigated and prosecuted through lawful international institutions.

America should stand for one standard of justice: no government or leader is above the law.

Regulate AI Before Technology Controls Democracy - 9.24.2026

Artificial intelligence is becoming one of the most powerful forces shaping our society, yet its enormous power is developing faster than the laws needed to govern it.

We must not allow a handful of enormously wealthy technology companies and their leaders to gain unchecked power over our elections, information, economy, privacy and democracy. Technology should serve humanity—not become a tool through which private interests can dominate public life.

AI can transform medicine, education, science and communication. But without strong democratic oversight, it can also magnify inequality, spread disinformation, eliminate jobs and concentrate unprecedented power in the hands of a few.

The public must have a meaningful voice in deciding how AI is developed and deployed. Governments must establish strong safeguards, transparency requirements, accountability and protections for workers, consumers and democratic institutions.

This is not a battle against technology. It is a demand that technology remain accountable to humanity.

We must regulate AI before its power becomes so concentrated that democracy can no longer effectively regulate it.

The stakes could be even higher. AI safety researchers, including Evan Hubinger of Anthropic, have warned about the possibility of AI posing an existential threat to humanity. Such warnings should not be ignored.

Bernie Sanders is right to warn that the World is moving in the wrong direction - 9.23.2026

Bernie Sanders is right to warn that the World is moving in the wrong direction. War is destroying innocent lives, the Climate Crisis threatens our future, extreme Inequality allows enormous wealth and power to remain concentrated among a few, and Artificial Intelligence is advancing faster than society can protect humanity.

These crises are deeply connected. Trillions are spent on Weapons while millions struggle to afford Food, Housing and Healthcare. Powerful corporations and Billionaires gain greater influence while ordinary people face growing insecurity.

We need a fundamental change in priorities. Governments must put Human Life, Peace, Climate Protection, Economic Justice and Democratic Accountability ahead of endless War, unlimited Wealth and uncontrolled Technology.

The greatest question is not what Technology can do, but what Humanity should do. We must ensure that Science and Technology serve people rather than profit, and that every human life is treated with equal dignity.

As Bernie Sanders warns, the direction of our World demands urgent action. Humanity cannot afford to remain silent.
