Five peace activists successfully blockaded six buses carrying Fort
Hood Soldiers deploying to Iraq outside Fort Hood's Clarke gate this
morning at around 4 a.m. While the activists took the width of Clarke
Rd. and slowed the buses to a halt, police made no arrests, but instead
beat the activists out of the streets using automatic weapons and
police dogs so the deploying Soldiers could proceed.

Among those
blockading were three veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and
one military spouse. (See attached bios) The action, organized by a
group calling themselves "Fort Hood Disobeys," was aimed at preventing
the deployment of the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment Soldiers to what the
veterans termed an illegal and immoral occupation.

While
standing in the street, the activists held banners reading "Occupation
is a Crime" and "Please Don't Make the Same Mistake We Did. RESIST
NOW." From the TX HW-190 overpass, additional supporters attempted to

If you missed the previous RIP NOmadjik Bus post, here's the back story on this. Part#1, Part#2

In classic Monty Python style, the bus just raised it's fist and cried "but I''m not dead yet!"

Shortly after being told the estimate was 5,768 dollars; which was a death blow to the bus, no brainer... I got another message from the shop but since I was downing beers I turned my phone off for awhile.

The NEW Message:  They were real sorry, someone else's estimate had accidentally been stapled to my ticket.

The bus only needs a new oil cooler assembly, related items and services.

The Actual Estimate is $1,575.00
Now, while this estimate is at least feasable; it's not like I got an extra dime laying around.
I'll be focusing on paying jobs for awhile. 
If you have a paying job for a webmaster or video producer, I'm all ears.

If you feel compelled to donate for the cause
I'd love you forever and will send you a DVD of anything I've produced, just name it.
However, I need to say that the bus will No Longer be traveling back an forth across the country All The F'n Time as it has been for the last 3 years.  The remainder of it's life will consist mostly of regional use for off grid film screenings, music and guerilla 1st ammendment covered activist video projections (like this on a smaller scale).

August 2nd, 2009 is the day the Hanoun and Al-Ghawi families were
evicted from their homes. This articulate resident of Sheikh Jarrah
shares his thoughts on the evictions and about Israeli/U.S. policy.
