Permalink BRAVE YOUNG AMERICAN JEW SPEAKS OF HIS VIOLENT ARREST IN JERUSALEM

Unlike most young Jews that visit Israel to ‘seek out their roots’ or to study, Lucas Koerner came here to express his feelings against the Occupation. His bravery lead to his being beaten by Israeli police and his subsequent arrest. In his own words. “My government is responsible and I’m here to say not in my name and not in the name of US citizens.” Below, he speaks to the Electronic Intifada about his nightmare in Jerusalem.

Koerner recounts his arrest on his blog, Stronger Than Slavery, where he writes: “Throughout the whole affair, the only thing audible coming from the policemen was a constant stream of curses words, ‘motherfucker,’ ‘piece of shit,’ etc., which was to me a ringing confirmation of how infuriated and threatened they were by a 19-year-old wearing a kippah and a keffiyeh standing with the Palestinians.”

Permalink Six Yemenis injured in US drone attack

At least six Yemeni civilians have been wounded in a non-UN-sanctioned US drone attack in Abyan Province in south of the country. - The Saturday strike came after a US decision to escalate drone attacks in Yemen, under the pretext of curbing what it calls a growing terror threat in the country. In Mid-June the Central Intelligence Agency said it was preparing to take charge of the drone strikes in Yemen. Since December 2009, US strikes in Yemen have been carried out by the US military with intelligence support from the CIA. Now, the spy agency will carry out aggressive drone strikes itself alongside the military campaign, which has been stepped up in recent weeks after a nearly yearlong hiatus.

Permalink British Student Faces Extradition to the US for Linking to Copyrighted Material

He created a website that allegedly linked to copyrighted material. Now, the US wants Richard O’Dwyer, the former owner of TVShack, to face a US court over his websites activities prior to both domain seizures. - It’s unlikely that when O’Dwyer started TVShack, he imagined that he would face extradition demands from the US. That’s exactly what is happening today. TVShack.net was the original domain for the website. It was a fairly popular website for people to find links to things like TV shows. However, all that came to an end last July when federal officials shut down the linking website’s domain name as part of their “Operation In Our Sites” campaign. The website quickly re-emerged as TVShack.cc. Then, at the end of November, ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) seized the domain again in part of their “Operation In Our Sites v 2.0″. Officially, the website never came back again as clone sites were all that remained after that. The owner is apparently out on bail after being arrested and wont face a court in Britain until September. As far as the US is concerned, that apparently isn’t enough. According to British newspaper, The Star, the US is demanding that he face a court in the US for linking to copyrighted material. The report says that the Computer Science student is in complete disbelief over the charges.
