Hi there,

As the future of democracy in the United States hangs in the balance, the need for courageous independent media is more important than ever. Our reporting centers the voices of people routinely excluded from corporate and government-run media, such as those raising deep questions about war and peace, demanding an end to our global reliance on fossil fuels. Because we are audience-supported, we need your help today. Can you donate $15 to Democracy Now! today to support independent media? From now until Giving Tuesday, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE your gift, which means your $15 donation is worth $45. Please help us air in-depth, substantive coverage of the outcome of the election and what it means for our collective future. Thank you so much! Every dollar makes a difference.

-Amy Goodman

Hezbollah Continues to Fire Rockets Into Israel

HeadlineJul 24, 2006

Over the weekend Hezbollah continued to fire rockets into northern Israel. Two residents of Haifa were killed in a rocket attack on Sunday. So far Hezbollah has killed 17 Israeli civilians. About 20 Israeli soldiers have also died fighting in Lebanon. Dan Gillerman, Israeli’s ambassador to the United Nations, said Hezbollah must be destroyed.

  • Dan Gillerman: “This cancer must be excised. It cannot be partially removed or allowed to fester. It must be removed without any trace or as cancers do and will it will return striking and killing again.”

Israel has suggested it may back a plan for international troops to patrol southern Lebanon.
