White House Takes a Wrong Turn on Salvadoran Refugees

Posted on by

“200,000 Salvadoran refugees who were granted U.S. Temporary Protected Status – some of whom have been living in the U.S. for nearly a generation – are being thrown under the bus.  The federal government is stumbling over a problem of its own creation, having made it almost impossible for the Salvadorans who lawfully have lived, worked, paid taxes and raised children under TPS to acquire permanent status.”

An Iranian-American Turned Down the FBI and Wound Up With a Prison Sentence

Posted on by

“‘I refused to secretly spy,’ he said, ‘because my honor meant more to me than my freedom.’  His prosecution was political, he said, an extension of the bitter rivalry between the nation of his birth and the one where he’d chosen to spend his life.”

U.S. Now Bombing Assad Forces Openly In Syria

Posted on by

“The U.S. attack is completely illegal under such international law as exists. The U.N. charter is very clear on that.  One cannot help but reach the conclusion that something is dreadfully wrong in our system. Germany, Italy and Japan, when they were fascist-controlled, similarly launched expansionary and aggressive moves against various regions.”

Several estimated that millions — plural — would die.”
