Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about the climate catastrophe, economic and racial justice and war and peace, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. That's why we have to take the media back—especially now. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Lebanon Sends More Police to Areas Vacated by Israel

HeadlineMay 30, 2000

Lebanon is sending more police to areas vacated by Israel but will not deploy the Lebanese army in the border region for now, this according to Lebanon’s prime minister. The UN must first verify the Israeli withdrawal, completed yesterday, and deploy peacekeepers, Prime Minister Selim al-Hoss said in a statement. Hundreds of policemen have been sent to the former Israeli-occupied areas, but the government has refused to send the army, saying its military will not act as a border guard for Israel.
