反對轟炸加薩 以色列上百人示威

路透社2014年8月10日

以色列特拉維夫9日電）超過150名以色列人今天聚集特拉維夫（Tel Aviv）街頭，反對以軍攻擊加薩走廊。加薩衝突已進入第2個月。

自從以色列7月8日襲擊巴勒斯坦武裝團體哈瑪斯（Hamas）以來，近幾週都有類似人數上街示威。示威人數不多，顯示以色列出兵加薩受到普遍民意支持。示威群眾揮舞上頭寫著「停止屠殺」、「放過加薩」的標語，1名參與的婦女說，她反對「轟炸加薩，並且呼籲終止暴力循環」。

約24名支持戰爭的民眾在附近舉行反制示威，不過兩方人馬未爆衝突。以色列警方先前依軍事理由，禁止民眾在加薩火箭攻擊目標的城市集會示威，不過警方表示，沒有逮捕任何參加這項非法集會的人。中央社（翻譯）

不只兩塊，周六我會把塑膠牌子整袋揹去，讓陳真慢慢挑。小慧別擔心。

懷軒

小慧，懷軒周六那天會帶一兩塊牌子給我。至於其它日子，各自應該都有自己的牌子了吧。沒有的話再交接即可。希望妳多多休養生息，來日方長。

小慧，

剛才召開哈巴狗電台臨時董事會，主席由學姊擔任，我是唯一與會者。主席英明，她有交待，妳不能再站了，下令請妳休息一周，別把身體弄壞。

真的，妳先休息，別每天站。每次一個人站我覺得沒關係，不一定要兩個人。就算有時候開天窗也沒關係，凡事量力而為。

周六我一個人站也一點問題都沒有。不會有事的，就算有事我一個人也應付得來。妳不用來罰站。

另外，從這些天各位的報告中，我發現，雖然我們只是站著，但不爽的人還是很不爽，而且說不定越來越不爽，畢竟今天已是站樁第八天。

而且，不爽的人不會只是以色列那一邊，同時還會有更多不爽的聲音是來自咱們自己同胞。也許有些人會認為你們反對以色列和美國，就等於是在幫大陸，所以你們是賣台的台奸等等，會建立這樣一種在台灣十分常見的敵我推論。

因此，總而言之，站的人自己得小心，也許有些時候不會只是言語辱罵，而是肢體攻擊。參與者自己得先想好，萬一遇到這種狀況時，你打算怎麼應對。

有個朋友叫江蓋世，島內台獨的聲音其實就是由他開始。他發起一個台獨行軍活動，主張 ""台灣人有主張台獨的自由""。行軍走遍全台各地，我參與過幾次，參與者往往十根手指頭都能數得出來，人數非常少，真的是小貓兩三隻，一般人別說參加，光看到就嚇死了。

當時沒有報紙敢報導，只有像民眾日報稍微提及。可是，當它登出照片時，布條上的標語竟然被報社自行打上馬賽克，變成 ""台灣人有主張__ 的自由""，""台獨""二字不見了。

我知道有些路段，好像只有江蓋世自己一個人或寥寥幾人參與，經常遭遇民眾嗆聲辱罵，甚至毆打。江蓋世很推崇甘地，還曾因此去印度待了半年，追尋甘地的足跡。我知道他被打時並沒有還手。這些事都已二、三十年前的往事，記憶有點模糊，印象中他好像有一次被打到整個人掉進水溝裏。

我們這年頭，靜站反戰，自然不及於當年恐怖氣氛的萬分之一，但是大家多少還是小心一點比較好。

我不是說大家應該學甘地，主動迎向打擊。我是覺得，面對這類狀況，各人理應有他自己的應對方式，而不一定非要怎麼做不可。

這個黨，除了抹黑，還是抹黑；除了造謠，還是造謠。抹黑造謠不稀奇，讓我始終感到很訝異的是：為何台灣人對於人事物的基本是非善惡如此漠然？你很難說這是一種欺騙，因為被騙的人對於是非善惡其實根本不在乎。

這位潘醫師，是我在台中某醫院工作時的小學弟。我完全不知道他這幾年竟也變成愛台急先鋒。我們曾是朋友，但我不知道人與人如何可能在根本價值上南轅北轍時而依然還能稱得上是朋友，除非我們改變朋友的定義。

台灣沒有言論自由可言，就連在這個版面上的言論也依然必須高度刪減，切勿對綠有所不敬。你可以大罵藍，很時尚，大罵馬英九，很高貴，但你罵綠罵什麼小英試試看，保證有你受的。

我不敢、也無意願再為台灣做任何付出，或者說，當一大群人飽受無理壓制時，我們願意以命相許，可當幾乎所有人都覺得爛很好，臭很香，樂於在陰暗中生活時，我就不知道還能說些什麼了，畢竟你又不瞎不聾，如果這麼噁爛的東西就是你所嚮往的世界，那我其實也沒啥意見了。

我唯一有意見的是：人性和基本理性總該還有個活路。

柯營爆連勝文先向習近平報告參選　連營：10天內道歉

蘋果日報2014年08月13日

北市長參選人柯文哲競選發言人潘建志，昨天在政論節目中提到，連勝文曾在出訪中國時，在中共總書記習近平面前，表示他將要參選台北市長，國民黨北市長參選人連勝文競選發言人陳曉卿今要求，潘建志須在3天內提出證據，否則柯營應在10天內在各大報刊登廣告向連勝文道歉。

陳曉卿說，連勝文陣營要對潘建志的說法提出嚴正駁斥並強烈抗議。她也呼籲柯文哲，須為自己的發言人的對外發言負責，柯也說過不要進行負面選舉，可是他卻在放任發言人在政論節目上做出不實指控，造成連勝文的傷害，連營要求柯約束發言人的言行，也不能動用網軍，在網路上散播不實言論。（晏明強／台北報導）

想找我的人，如果每天排一個，恐怕得排到明年中秋。但我幾乎全數推掉，因為不知道要跟他們說什麼；每多說一句，便多一分誤解。我明白他們總是談些什麼以及持有何種眼光，可我無言以對。

基於某種敬意，我不想講社交語言，更不習慣敷衍，但我知道人與人的感情在缺乏真實理解的狀況下，只會越說越遠。

熟人多，朋友少，知音難尋。人與人之間有許多面高牆，構成無數誤解，而政治恐怕還只是裏頭最矮、最容易摧毀的一面。其它高牆，根深而蒂固。

最近不是馬航空難嗎？那個時間點我恰好也在空中。無謂言詞，憑添誤解與惆悵，我跟學姊說，何不趁這機會昭告眾人，陳真已死，屍首成灰，各位就忘了他吧。可是學姊不願配合。

對於絕大部份人，我已決心來世再見，希望來世我們將會誕生在同一個星球上而能了解彼此的 “語言”。

天空懂得雲彩，猶如波濤理解海上的風。沿著維根斯坦的足跡，我走過沈從文走過的每一座橋，來到他們墳前，訴說那無從訴說的一切。

常看巴勒網，真是好處多多，又能免費參加靜站健身，又能索取各種精美小冊子，更有無數風花雪月的好康分享。

家裏有MOD的請注意，天大好康在此要告訴你：

有兩部電影非看不可，正在MOD上映。一是沙林傑，一是絕美之城。觀看前，務必備妥眼淚瓶，保證看完非但不能一解惆悵，而且還能讓你憂鬱指數再創新高。

沙林傑就像維根斯坦，而後者無非就是羅素。一個出世，一個入世；一個倉皇躲避人群，一個是社交天王，玩世不恭，但我知道生命是怎麼一回事，我明白他們來自距離地球甚為遙遠的同一顆星球。

當這問題仍然存在時，便證明它無效。

至於第二點，請見董事長精心提出的 ""搞不懂管不完吃飽太閒天人合一 理論""：

接力靜默站樁第七天。

老時間老地方，到了就站。四點鐘張正也到了。

天氣很好，回復上周涼爽氣氛，有風無雨。保全和一位便衣在後面聊天，順便觀察我們。

將近五點鐘左右，兩位警察騎著摩托車出現，說有民眾通報他們，想知道我們在這站樁的目的，簡短說了幾句，警察就問有沒有帶身分證件，我說沒有，報了身分證號碼，警察用機器輸入，然後拿張正的身分證進行登錄及拍照。另一位便衣應該是保六，警察說是他們同仁，也用手機在拍張正身分證。

張正離開位置用手機拍照記錄，似乎遭到警察制止，溝通了一下。五點鐘有稍作休息。

從大樓出來等車的先生，建議我們牌子往左邊彎一點，這樣過來的人車才比較容易看到。

五點半左右，一位年輕男生來問我們在這站樁的原因，一樣簡短回應，他提很多問題，我說有傳單，就拿了張傳單給他，他說他騎車經過看到，停好車後過來找我們了解狀況。

他後來跟張正聊天，聽說他有參與學運的樣子。

將近六點鐘，想幫張正拍張記錄，他剛好閉目養神，就直接幫他拍下。結束站樁後，他關心了一下我的感冒，基本雖然還沒好也沒啥大礙，喉嚨卡著東西的感覺罷了，今天回診。聽說他牙齒在腫痛，要記得去看醫生啊，牙疼起來，可能比我感冒還難受。

阿忠周二的夜間場次是幾點到幾點？首頁裏可以註明一下。

周二夜間目前僅阿忠一人。

台南好大的雨。台北若風雨大，安全第一，別硬撐；或是偶而開天窗無妨，各位保存實力，量力而為。

停戰之日，遙遙無期。我已經把這個月台南台北的往返車票都先買了。

這塊會發亮的牌子很搶眼。

最近看到一篇文章：http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2014/07/30/isis-j30.html

覺得內容還不錯，但還沒決定要不要翻。另外也有一篇，內容如信末，算是比較感性。

這兩篇我們還沒決定要不要翻，可能得請大家過目一下，再做個判斷。

ISIS 可以說是以美國為首的西方列強所 ""栽培"" 出來的一股勢力。這股勢力，前面該不該加個 ""惡"" 字，在我看來仍有爭議。各方對其理解不一，相關資料也不多見，但理解ISIS和美國乃至於和以色列之間的關係，也許有助於理解ISIS。

我常有個很深的感覺，國際關係爾虞我詐，衝突不斷，全出之以正義或神聖之名，但實際上卻是基於赤裸裸的私利、權力與偏見，透過無數謊言及各種血腥手段所進行的一番慘烈鬥爭，絲毫看不到一點文明跡象，或甚至可以說毫無人性可言。

我個人因此經常很難選邊靠，很難支持特定一方，往往只有大反和小反的差別。因為，所有爭端，一旦訴諸血腥，生靈便要塗炭。每想起這些，我就特別想躲進風花雪月和乾淨無暇的哲學世界裏尋找美麗和溫暖。

Ilan Pappe
The Electronic Intifada
27 July 2014

I do not know yet who your loved one was. She might have been a baby a few months old, or a young boy, a grandfather or one of your children or parents. I heard about your loved one’s death from Chico Menashe, a political commentator on Reshet Bet, Israel’s main radio station.

He explained that the killing of your loved one, as well as turning Gaza neighborhoods to rubble and driving 150,000 people from their homes, is part of a well-calculated Israeli strategy: this carnage will destroy the impulse of Palestinians in Gaza to resist Israeli policies.

I heard this while reading in the 25 July edition of the supposedly respectable Haaretz the words of the not so respectable historian Benny Morris that even this is not enough.

He calls the genocidal policies so far “refisut” — feebleness of mind and spirit. He demands far more massive destruction in the future with the knowledge that this is how you behave if you want to defend your “villa in the jungle,” as former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak described Israel.

Inhuman wilderness

Yes, I am afraid to say the Israeli media and academia are fully behind the massacre apart from few, hardly audible voices in this inhuman wilderness. I am not writing this to tell you that I am ashamed — I long ago dissociated myself from this state ideology and do all I can as an individual to confront and defeat it. Probably it has not been enough; we are all inhibited by moments of cowardice, egotism and maybe a natural impulse to take care of our family and loved ones.

And yet I feel the urge today to make a pledge to you, which none of the Germans my father knew during the time of the Nazi regime was willing to make to him when the thugs committed genocide against his family. This is not much of a pledge at your moment of grief, but it is the best I can offer and saying nothing is not an option. And doing nothing is even less than an option.

This is 2014 — the destruction of Gaza is well documented. This is not 1948 when Palestinians had to struggle hard to tell their story of horror; so many of the crimes Zionist committed then where hidden and never came to light, even until today. So my first and simple pledge is to record, inform and insist on the truth.

My old university, University of Haifa, has recruited its students to disseminate Israel’s lies all over the world using the Internet, but this is 2014 and propaganda of this kind will not hold water.

Pledge to boycott

But surely this is not enough. I pledge to continue the effort to boycott a state that commits such crimes. Only when the Union of European Football Associations throws Israel out, when the academic community refuses to have any institutional ties with Israel, when airlines hesitate to fly there, and when every outfit that may lose money because of an ethical stance in the short-term understands that in the long run it will gain both morally and financially — only then we will begin to honor your loss.

The boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement has had many achievements and continues its tireless work. The obstacles still include the false allegation of anti-Semitism and the cynicism of politicians. This is how an honorable initiative by British architects to force their colleagues in Israel to take a moral stance rather than be accomplices in the criminal colonization of the land was blocked at the last moment.

Similar initiatives were sabotaged elsewhere by spineless politicians in Europe and the United States. But my pledge is to be part of the effort to overcome these hurdles. The memory of your loved one will be the driving force, together with the vivid memory of the suffering of the Palestinians in 1948 and ever since.

Slaughterhouse

I do it all egotistically. I really pray and hope that in this worst moment of your life when Palestinians stand in Shujaiya, Deir al-Balah or Gaza City, gazing at the slaughterhouse created by Israeli warplanes, tanks and artillery, you would not lose hope in humanity.

This humanity even includes Israelis, those who do not have the courage to speak but who express their horror in private as my overflowing email and Facebook inboxes attest, as well as the small handful who demonstrate publicly against the incremental genocide in Gaza.

It also includes those not born yet who perhaps will be able to escape a Zionist indoctrination machine that teaches them, from cradle to grave, to dehumanize the Palestinians to such a level that the burning alive of a sixteen-year-old Palestinian boy fails to move them or shatter their belief in their government, army or religion.

Defeated

For their sake, mine and yours, I wish we can also dream of the day after — when Zionism will be defeated as the ideology that governs our lives between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean sea and we all have the normal life we crave for and deserve.

So I pledge today not to be distracted even by friends and Palestinian leaders who still foolishly pin their hopes on the long-gone “two-state solution.” If one has the impulse to be involved in bringing regime change in Palestine, the only reason to do this is for a struggle for equal human and civil rights and full restitution for all those who are and were victimized by Zionism, inside and outside the beloved land of Palestine.

May whoever is your loved one rest in peace knowing that their death was not in vain — not because it will be avenged and revenged. We do not need more bloodshed. I still believe there is a way of bringing evil systems to an end with the power of humanity and morality.

Justice also means bringing the murderers who killed your loved one and so many others to court, and we must pursue bringing Israel’s war criminals to trial in international tribunals.

It is a far longer way and, at times, even I feel the impulse to be part of a force that uses hard power to end the inhumanity. But I pledge myself to work for justice, full justice, restorative justice.

This is what I can pledge — to work to prevent the next stage in the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.
