    Memorial Day by a Vietnam War veteran

    Originally published: Pressenza on May 28, 2023 by Camillo Mac Bica (more by Pressenza) (Posted May 29, 2023)

    Perhaps some may find what I will argue below as disrespectful, especially coming from a veteran who participated and lost comrades in the American War in Vietnam. But it must be said. How Memorial Day is currently observed does not, in my view, fulfill its intended purpose—that is, as a day of remembrance, reflection, and appreciation for the sacrifices of those who fought and died in this nation’s all too numerous wars.

    ‘Apartheid’ designation ignored as Israel kills children in Gaza AGAIN

    Originally published: FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting) on May 23, 2023 by Bryce Greene (more by FAIR (Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting))  | (Posted May 25, 2023)

    Israel’s recent bombing of the Gaza Strip from May 9–13 killed 33 Palestinians, including seven children. FAIR looked at coverage of these attacks from the Washington Post, New York Times and CNN, and didn’t find a single reference to Israel as an apartheid state, despite this being the consensus in the human rights community.
