My late grandfather used to say that life is made of harshness and love. He had survived becoming an orphan in WW1 and seen the transformation of a beautiful pluralistic society to become a "Jewish state" dominated by strife. But he also saw people helping people. The kindness touched him and love and work were inseparable. Giving is true living.

Finally here -- the 2024 annual report of the Palestine Institute for Biodiversity and Sustainability (Bethlehem University). Open, read and be inspired.

Thank you to those of you who contributed. Donation of any kind (tangible, knowledge, finance) and of any size is welcome. Please check this link for our current needs. To donate. Contact us for naming opportunities via large donations to discuss options (your name or that of a loved one can remain on a museum visited by thousands and soon tens of thousands annually).

Genocide profits Israel arms manufacturing part one. Part two.

Again ACTION is the best antidote to despair and gives meaning to our lives. Let us work harder, give more, love more.

Stay Humane and keep hope alive

I'm an old Pogo fan. For some unknown reason I persist in outrage at Feudalism, as if human beings can do much better than this. Our old ways of life are obsolete and are killing us. Will the human race wake up in time? Stay (more...)
