She gives her philosophy on how to interact appropriately with customers.

Today, we step into a subject that exposes the raw nerves of a nation, the fear gripping its settlers, and the political narratives shaping the conflict. It is a subject that forces us to confront the violence unfolding across Palestinian towns, the ideological machinery behind it, and the way fear is transformed into justification. This is not a polite exploration. It is not softened. It is not designed to protect anyone’s comfort. It is designed to reveal. Across the West Bank, settler rampages have erupted with alarming intensity. Homes burned. Cars torched. Families forced to flee in the middle of the night. Videos show masked figures marching with rifles, chanting threats, attacking civilians, and leaving behind trails of destruction. Israeli human rights organizations describe these attacks as coordinated and deliberate. Palestinians describe them as terror. And today, we must try to understand what fuels this violence, and why it is escalating now. The first layer of this subject is fear, not only as an emotion but as a political tool. Settlers claim they are terrified, living under constant threat, surrounded by enemies. They frame their actions as self-defense, as survival, as a response to existential danger. But fear, when politicized, becomes something else. It becomes a shield that excuses aggression. It becomes a narrative that transforms perpetrators into victims. It becomes a justification for rampage. Let’s see how this fear is shaped. Settlers live in fortified enclaves, protected by military units, armed with rifles, supported by state funding, and backed by political leadership. They travel in armored vehicles. They receive infrastructure and protection that Palestinians do not. Yet they describe themselves as vulnerable and besieged. This fear is not only emotional; it is ideological. It is cultivated through education, religious narratives, and political rhetoric that frame Palestinians as existential threats. It is reinforced by leaders who portray settlement expansion as both a right and a necessity. But fear does not erase responsibility. Fear does not justify burning homes. Fear does not excuse collective punishment. And fear does not belong exclusively to one side. Palestinian families endure settler attacks without protection, without recourse, without justice. Their fear is lived, daily, and unshielded. It belongs to those who have no army, no state, no armored vehicles, and no political backing. The second layer of this subject is history, not as a neutral record but as a tool that can be weaponized. Some argue that violence is inevitable, that the conflict is predetermined, that resistance is simply refusal to accept reality. This framing reduces the conflict to fate rather than political choice. It erases Palestinian agency, suffering, and rights. It suggests that settlement expansion, occupation, and displacement are natural outcomes of history rather than deliberate policies. But history is not destiny. History can be selective. History can be used to absolve power. And today, we confront the fact that invoking history to justify present-day oppression is a political strategy, not a historical truth. The third layer of this subject is militarization, specifically the shockwaves created by reports of Hamas acquiring weapons through regional networks and smuggling routes. These revelations have sparked outrage and fear. Some claim these weapons justify harsher measures, justify occupation, justify settler violence. Others argue that armed resistance emerges from decades of siege, displacement, and structural violence. But today, we must ask: Does militarization justify occupation? Does resistance justify rampage? Does fear justify erasure? The heart of this subject is truth, who defines it, who controls it, and who pays the price when truth becomes dangerous. The conflict is not only fought on land. It is fought through narratives. Through fear. Through memory. Through the stories that are amplified and the stories that are buried. Violence does not emerge from a vacuum. Fear does not justify rampage. History does not absolve oppression. Weapons do not erase rights. Now, let’s see where this leaves us. Settlers say they are terrified. Palestinians say they are terrorized. Some claim violence is inevitable. Others insist justice is possible. And many warn that truth is being buried beneath fear, ideology, and political convenience. Today, we step into that discomfort. Today, we examine the claims. Today, we confront the contradictions. Today, we look directly at the fear, the anger, the history, and the humanity at the center of this conflict. This is not just a subject. It is a mirror reflecting a nation on edge and a people under fire. If you have thoughts, I want to hear them. Email me at TWIPpodcasts@gmail.com and tell me how you see it. This is This Week in Palestine.

The shooting and deaths at Marysville-Pilchuck High School in Marysville, Washington, on October 24, 2014, brought sadness, fear, unity and a special form of healing to the Tulalip and other Native people of the area. In this edition of Radio Curious we visit with Jerome Edge, a Native American of Swinomish and Upper Skagit heritage, hip-hop activist and radio host at KSVR-FM in Mt. Vernon, Washington. When Jerome Edge and I visited from his home in Mt. Vernon, Washington, we discussed the trauma and sadness caused by the shootings and the turn toward healing that then occurred. We also discussed a developing hip-hop focus — a way to instill values of personal and community respect and strength. The song “Rise Up,” which you will hear in the program sung by Shaundiin Zollner, is used by permission. Jerome Edge and I began our conversation on November 16, 2014, when I asked him to put the shootings in a context of time and place. The book Jerome Edge recommends is “The Indians of Skagit County,” by Martin J. Sampson.

We look at probably the most famous man named "Thurl" out there, A quick trip to Hawaii for your ears, and a Limburger Lounge typical of the 1960s and 70s Lounge scene....we think anyway...we weren't old enough to stick our head into those dark liquor filled caverns of a largely forgotten culture filled with questionable musical talents of the ages. Wow...pretty descriptive for something we really don't know a lot about.
