When NIMBYs argue that offering sanitation services will only encourage homeless people to stay homeless, they ignore a simple fact: Homeless people do not go away because you deny them access to a portable toilet.

"Extreme" conditions, "open sewers", "significant public health, fire, safety, structural, and environmental risks." These were all things city officials wrote in a report released this week about the homeless encampment under I-5 known as "The Jungle." These are the types of things some media outle…

RUSSIA PROMISES TO PROTECT KURDS AGAINST TURKISH JUNTA INVASION OF SYRIA !

Russia has promised to protect Kurdish fighters in Syria in case of a ground offensive by Turkey, a move that would lead to a “big war,” the Syrian group’s envoy to Moscow said in an interview on Wednesday. “We take this threat very seriously because the ruling party in Turkey is a party of war,” Rodi Osman, head of the Syrian Kurds’ newly-opened representative office said in Kurdish via a Russian interpreter. “Russia will respond if there is an invasion. This isn’t only about the Kurds, they will defend the territorial sovereignty of Syria.”

FACEBOOK, as part of it's 'Abuse Standards Violations' under the heading 'IP Blocks and International Compliance' is openly censoring the Kurdish People, Kurdistan and the PKK. By censoring the Kurds and the PKK; Facebook is indirectly playing into the hands of the Islamic State (ISIS), countries who aid ISIS and countries which also oppress the Kurdish people such as Turkey. The PKK is amongst the few groups who are waging war against them on behalf of all Humanity with thousands of Female and Male Fighters.

Thousands of Kurds across the globe are constantly having their accounts suspended temporarily and/or permanently if they share or post:

* Maps of Kurdistan (Turkey)

*Burning Turkish Flags

*PKK Support and Depiction

*Ocalan (PKK Leader) related Content.



The PKK are the only group in the World to be specifically mentioned and censored as a violation against its 'standards.' Let's not Forget; the PKK is also the only secular and progressive group fighting against ISIS in Syria, Iraq and Turkey today. They have a Pro-Democratic, Pro-Environmentalist, Pro-Peace agenda embracing Women's rights and Freedom, a Pluralist ideology respecting all religions of the Middle East and the World together with a strong stand for Human Rights. They are a resistance group whom popular resistance groups such as the YPG (People's Protection Units) and YPJ (Women's Protection Units) are affiliated to; the PKK have been fighting against the assimilation policies, massacres and oppression of the Turkish State against the Kurdish People since 1978.

It is an utter absurdity for Facebook to censor the PKK and the Kurdish People. It is an utter absurdity that Facebook conforms with the requests of the Turkish State who are Feeding, Training, Breeding and Arming ISIS; a country who trades with ISIS and has been operating an open border policy for them since the beginning of the Syrian Civil War.

As the law-abiding Kurdish people, together with the International Community; we request your support to condemn Facebook's policies against the PKK and ask for the wrongful censorships and procedures to cease immediately. It should not be a violation for millions of people to openly support a group who are fighting on behalf of the oppressed Kurdish people and rest of Humanity.

Instead of relocating, residents say they plan to stay on the Dearborn site beyond the eviction date and are in search of a new organization to oversee the camp.

The Nickelsville homeless encampment near I-5 on Dearborn Street is counting down to an eviction. In recent weeks, the camp's residents have twice voted to oust Scott Morrow, the camp's longtime staff person. That move effectively invalidates the agreement that allows them to occupy their current ho…
