Linda explains that the extreme heat, pressure and radiation inside a nuclear reactor have embrittled Reactor Pressure Vessels, robbing nukes everywhere of their braking systems…rendering them all vulnerable to the next apocalyptic explosion.

As Linda says, we have far more battery storage in California than Diablo produces….so who needs nukes? Answer: NOBODY!!

Across Ohio, students are gaining momentum in the movement to end the ongoing genocide of Palestinians at the hands of extremist Israeli powers. This comes as part of a wider wave of direct action on college campuses nationally as young people call for change.

Peaceful protest, violent response – that says it all.

Human politics – from global to local – remain mixed with hatred, dominance and . . . well, dehumanization. We’ve organized ourselves across the planet around one primary principle: the existence of an enemy. The division between “us” and “them” can be based on anything: a difference in race, language, culture – or simply a difference of opinion, which is beginning to happen on campuses across the country, as peaceful, intensely determined protesters, demanding their institutions divest from the Israeli war machine, face violent resistance from police and/or counter-protesters.

The mass protests at dozens of US universities cannot be reduced to a stifling and misleading conversation about antisemitism. 

 Thousands of American students across the country are not protesting, risking their own futures and very safety, because of some pathological hate for the Jewish people. They are doing so in a complete rejection of, and justifiable outrage over the mass killing carried out by the state of Israel against defenseless Palestinians in Gaza. 

 They are angry because the bloodbath in the Gaza Strip, starting on October 7, is fully funded and backed by the US government. 

Franklin County Treasurer Cheryl Brooks Sullivan wants the public to know that the county will never divest the $33 million it has invested in the state of Israel unless she is voted out of office or forced to divest by the voters through a ballot initiative.

At a public meeting of the Franklin County Investment Advisory Committee on Thursday April 18, Brooks Sullivan confirmed that the county had reinvested $1 million in Israel Bonds using funds from an earlier Israel Bonds purchase that had reached maturity on April 1. Defiant before members of the public who questioned further investment in the state of Israel in the midst of active genocide in Gaza, Brooks Sullivan denied the political nature of the bonds purchase.
