War and Natural Gas: The Israeli Invasion and Gaza's Offshore Gas Fields
This is a war of conquest. Discovered in 2000, there are extensive gas reserves off the Gaza coastline.
British Gas (BG Group) and its partner, the Athens based Consolidated Contractors International Company (CCC) owned by Lebanon's Sabbagh and Koury families, were granted oil and gas exploration rights in a 25 year agreement signed in November 1999 with the Palestinian Authority."

Oscar Grant, R.I.P.
Hat tip: Abagond.
The police was totally unjustified in Mr. Grant. The police in general need to be sensitive when it comes to policing people of color in their communities. They need to be more respectful as well. He was a good young man who was struggling to raise his child and go to school at the same time.
There is a pattern in police departments around the country to target Blacks, men and women, for no particular reason at all. Remember Eleanor Bumpurs, Amadou Diallo, Taniysha, Sean Bell, anyone? Let's remember them as well.
Rest in peace
