Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,
|
Richard Becker, San Francisco organizer for the International Action Center (IAC), spoke in San Diego December 6 and explained that the real reason for the events of September 11 wasnt an attack on freedom and democracy. Instead, he said, the attacks were a desperate reaction to the long-term occupation of Palestine by Israel and the 60-year involvement of the U.S. in the Middle East, particularly our support of Israel and of corrupt Arab regimes like Saudi Arabias and Kuwait because theyre willing to sell us cheap oil.

Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger's Newsmagazine,
|
The San Diego City Council voted 6-3 on December 4 to renew the Boy Scouts of Americas $1-per-year lease on over 18 acres of prime city parkland, despite strong opposition to the lease over the Boy Scouts discrimination against Queers, agnostics and atheists. Though most of the Councilmembers who supported the renewal made it clear that they disapprove of the Scouts anti-Queer policies, they were persuaded by strong public support for the Scouts programs and by the argument that the 25,000 Boy Scouts in San Diego County shouldnt lose their campground over a quarrel between adults over values.
