***** MUST READ. On the re-election of Satanyahu: "Everything you have been told about the “Jewish democracy” by the Israel supporters: it is wrong. It may be Jewish, but it is no democracy, this is a white settler society where a fearful privileged group of Jews holds on to its power in ever-expanding colonies by reelecting a strong leader, now in his tenth year as premier, who will use threats and violence against the Palestinians...." detail

SPDF Day 16: I'm glad Satanyahu won.
I'm glad Satanyahu won. I'm glad how he won, by stating in words what his actions have vomited for his whole life - NO PALESTINIAN STATE, ARABS (uh, and EVERYONE ELSE, INCLUDING YOU) ARE DOG MEAT. It couldn't be more clear now. If we, IF WE ALL, don't stop this Satan, he and his filth, he and his evil, he and those like the job are going to come for the rights of everyone. F'CK EVERYONE THAT DOESN'T STAND UP NOW TO STOP THIS SATANIC MONSTER, AND THE SATANIC MONSTER THAT JUST ELECTED HIM - ISRAEL.

SPDF Day 16: Medical Update. My doc was alarmed by my bloodwork the other day and called me in first thing this morning. It has been only 16 days without food but my potassium has plunged and heart attack is not far behind, and I have another months work to do here on Capitol Hill so, although that would be an immensely merciful way for me to terminate this, much more pleasant than the options I face, the timing is not good Bless her heart, she is trying twice a day potassium tablets on me and zantac to try and make the pain of it manageable, and if that doesn't do it, she'll do IV. She wants me back Monday for more bloodwork and Tues to consult on the results. She is truly and Angel. She is Truly an Angel. A pretty young Georgetown Med grad that devotes her life to we homeless, and does her vacations healing folks in Haiti.
I guess low potassium is a pretty bad thing. Three years ago on a hunger strike, day 17, they took me to the ER, large hospital, waiting room full, knife wounds, etc, they did a triage nurse thing, blood sample, I went back to my seat in the waiting room expecting to be an hour or so. In seconds ahead of everyone they had me back in the ER shirt off, IV in, fluids, potassium, working on me for 5 hours.

**** SPDF Stop Palestines Death Fast Day 16: 'My life counts nothing to me compared with the merest possibility of reducing by even one day, for even one of my 7 million Palestinians, their torment, torture, terrorization, degradation, dehumanization by we Americans and the Israelis these last 68 years.' My soul has known this for years, and I follow my Soul, long before I understand what it is telling me, but as I was staggering to Capital Hill this morning after seeing my Doc, mercifully, this clarity came to my mind. Clear as day. Clear as day.

***** SPDF Day 15: Chris Hedges, "How do we resist? How, if this descent is inevitable, as I believe it is, do we fight back? Why should we resist at all? Why not give in to cynicism and despair? Why not carve out as comfortable a niche as possible within the embrace of the corporate state and spend our lives attempting to satiate our private needs? The power elite, including most of those who graduate from our top universities, academics, politicians, the press and our liberal and intellectual classes, have sold out for personal comfort. Why not us?"......

Minute 23, especially - "I submit to you tonight that no man is free if he fears death. But the minute you conquer the fear of death, at that moment, you are free. You must say, somehow, "I don’t have much money. I don’t have much education. I may not be able to read and write. But I have the capacity to die."

SPDF Day 15: Apparently there is some problem with my blood chemistry. My doc has reviewed the test results and wants me to come see her tomorrow morning, which I will. The Terminal part of this campaign will be pretty tricky. I have zero support, am all alone in this. And at the end negotiations will be needed with hospital, police, psychiatrists... that I be allowed to become one of the statistics, that I may die so a Palestinian child has a chance of living. I'm praying my doc keeps helping me so my brain doesn't go before my body does.

SPDF Stop Palestines Death Fast Day 15: From a dear dear sister since childhood: "i am aching over your condition..i do understand...yet i want you to be taken care of along with the rest of humanity...SENDING MY LOVE x." My reply: "Do not ache over my condition. I have never been so Joyful. Ache for the condition of our millions of Palestinians. Ache for every young person you know on earth. Ache for every person and creature in the future. Ache for everyone you know in America just a year or two hence, it is all collapsing, economy, fascism, police state, plantation Amerika. Ache for everyone above the age of 12 today that will look back in horror and agony, just a few years from now, and shake in agony as they say, 'MY GOD, WHY DIDN'T I SHAKE OFF MY DENIAL AND STAND FOR GOOD, WHILE THERE WAS STILL A CHANCE.'

SPDF day 15: terribly sick last night and this morning. Arrived here on Capitol Hill by 7 a.m. I was on the hill yesterday from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m. The sickness is, I think, a self inflicted wound. Night before last I learned that my body can no longer tolerate a potassium tablet. I thought it could tolerate a magnesium tablet, but it turns out I am sadly mistaken. My stomach hurts like hell and I have waves of nausea. I have lost much of my strength but mercifully a hand truck I ordered arrived last night which makes it somewhat more possible to transport my stuff to and from Capitol Hill and this weekend to and from the White House.
