Some protesters embrace the slogan “Free Palestine from the River to the Sea.” Others envision a binational state, grounded in the equality of both peoples. Still others advocate a two state solution. Netanyahu and his extremist coalition partners, in contrast, with the use of force, destruction, expropriation and plunder, are bloodily embedding a single unitary Jewish apartheid state from the River Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea. In other words while the protesters advocate one or another solution to the current crisis, Netanyahu and his criminal coalition are establishing, via bloody facts on the ground, their vision of an unequal, racist, land grabbing, anti-democratic state in a land long occupied by two peoples.

I'm a long-time socialist and activist, but new to the blogging world. I hope to bring a different perspective on politics, sports, culture, and Marxism. Besides blogging, I also leave plenty of time for swimming, hiking, ESPN, music, reading, drinking good beer, and, not least, my family and friends. I wish I could play basketball, but my knees ruled out that possibility long ago.
While I currently reside in New York, my politically formative years were spent in Portland, Me. and Detroit during the 1970s and 1980s. I graduated from St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia (where I played basketball) and received a MA in economics from the University of Connecticut.
I was the national chairperson of the Communist Party, USA from 2000 until 2014 when I stepped down at the convention. In 2016 I resigned from the Communist Party two years later. We were no longer on the same page.
