On March 13, the IDF also shot an American protester, Tristan Anderson, in the head with a tear gas canister and he had to have his frontal lobe removed. Debra Saunders of the SF Chronicle wrote a column making fun of him, entitled “Tree Sitter Not in Berkeley Anymore.” http://news.infoshop.org/article.php?story=20090519115232251

Max Blumenthal is over there now taking video of the IDF and I’m afraid they’re going to kill him.

Richard,
Do you know how this particular murderer was identified as being the killer of Bassem?

  I’m presuming that someone did some analysis and enlargement of the video testimony which clearly shows the IDF soldiers who fired the tear gas. In the original video, the images of the soldiers are somewhat distant but still distinct. But I’m sure with technology you can enlarge the image well enough to see the face.

re Ilene, yeah, Debra Saunders is a desecration, just a horrible, blood-thirsty, truly sadistic columnist. I remember back when she was positively crowing over the indictment & conviction of John Walker Lindh, she seemed to take particular glee in the draconian punishment of that young American who, like so many Afghans, just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. San Francisco’s very own brain-dead Neocon is, sadly, its most famous current columnist. Come on “liberal” San Francisco, you can do better.

really sad that scum like Saunders exist, but so many more out there are just like her. Look at the spy nest called C.N.N. for starters. Half of their payroll is Mossad agents.

unfortunately, there are no such things as ‘liberal’ anything relative to San Francisco, or for that matter, any other part of the U.S. It’s only ‘co-opted’ ‘sit on your ass and play with your game boy or your playstation’ types now in the country.

but, like all empires, it is falling in around them. And they have few clues about how scum like Saunders and others have hastened their downfall with their propaganda and jingoistic right wing bullshit.
