- Where LGBT rights and nationalism meet
By Aeyal Gross When I saw the call for papers for the Amsterdam Sexual Nationalism conference, which suggested a focus on Europe, I decided to try my luck and send in a paper proposal. I did what many academics do: adjust my paper to the context of the call for papers, by offering to look at [...]
- Preeminent Israelis to support Palestinian sta ...
Tomorrow, a group of preeminent Israelis will endorse Palestinian statehood along the 1967 borders, and call on compatriots to join them. Will a Palestinian “state” be a game changer? And, if so, will it mark a change for the better? A couple of weeks ago, Ami asked why the Israeli left isn’t de ...

"the student doesn’t understand his or her role in the university, and sees him or herself as an uncritical agent of the state... Ultimately the criticism is internalized, and many professors think twice or fear to speak their opinions."

This blog has been a great forum to discuss the occasional triumphs of justice and the victory of the rule of law over the fraud, the deceit and the abject criminality of the banks and their law firms. It has also been an open forum for me to discuss the frustrations over a legal system [...]
- THE ULTIMATE SELL OUT- THE BANKS AVOID ALL LIA ...
We have become a disgusting, lawless and overtly corrupt nation where no rules or laws apply to the banks and institutions. Dispense with all your naive notions of justice, fairness and law, because in this new era these concepts do not apply if your crimes and conspiracies are big enough. WASH ...
- The Banks Can’t Count…
Every single day we receive more and more evidence of the banks and their wrongdoing. I long ago gave up on any government official to do anything about it and I never had any faith that any of the banks or the industry could self police I had faith that our courts would do something, [...]

It’s only Tuesday, but it has been a very good week already…I got two Summary Judgments vacated and two sales canceled! Now mind you, there was no way these two judgments should have been entered in first place, but that’s a whole other story. The bottom line is we worked very hard, briefed th ...
- Lost
Not every all-candidates debate is the same, but last night’s was somewhat typical in that a good representation of keen observers gathered to press all of the aspiring MPs on policy issues. Held in a local library and hosted by the group Our Votes Count, the questions were indeed varied – every ...

When Romeo Dallaire calls you naturally get the phone right away. “Glen, this election has been devoid of any real discussion about Canada’s international role in a changing world. Do you agree?” I concurred. “I wish there was some way you and I could work together to raise the level of this cam ...
- You Don’t Know Me
It was an interesting challenge – canvassing during an election always is. The husband and wife called down the street, asking me to return. They had been in the back yard and hadn’t heard me knocking on their door. “Let me be honest and just say that I don’t like your leader,” the woman offered ...
- Campaign Insider – Important Things
For some, campaigns are everything – everything. And that’s especially true of Saturdays. Calls go out to volunteers to canvass and the blitz is on. There are only five such days in the campaign when most volunteers are available and they are packed with activity. Yet campaigns shouldn’t succeed ...

For the last four months I’ve been writing a book on peace – not the kind where governments negotiate settlements but where average people find innovative and courageous ways to bring people together despite military conflicts.
