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

1 Killed in Hezbollah Rocket Attacks on Israel

HeadlineJul 26, 2006

Hezbollah continues to launch rockets on Israeli towns. On Tuesday, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah gave a televised statement threatening deeper missile strikes into Israeli territory. According to the Israeli military, more than 100 rockets were fired Tuesday. The strikes killed at least one person, a teenage Arab-Israeli girl. Several homes were damaged in a Hezbollah strike on a village near Haifa. One of the homeowners had attended an anti-war rally in Tel Aviv earlier this week. The homeowner, Ruthy Gor, told Reuters she remains opposed to the war.

  • Ruthy Gor: “I was at the demonstration in Tel Aviv, I was against war, here you see what war does. What is war — war is destruction.”
