Harvard University has been terrorizin $\\"\\"$ g workers\, especially library staff\, for months. After proclamations from administrators that the library workforce would shrink by "\;voluntary or involuntary"\; means\, 65 library employees just accepted a miserly early-retirement deal. The library workforce is already nearly one-third smaller than it was in 2009\, when hundreds of Harvard workers lost their jobs. This was on top of a previous wave of cuts in 2004.

Did you know that the US is giving Israel an additional $680 million for its "\;Iron Dome"\; project - on top of the annual $3.1 billion in military aid we have pledged to give each year until 2017? \;Did you know that the US House by a vote of 411 - 2 (Ron Paul and John Dingell) just passed The US-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012 to give Israel even more weapons and support to ensure that it keeps its "\;qualitative military edge"\;?

Let us raise our voices against the use of our tax dollars to kill Palestinians\, destroy their land and homes and make war on neighboring countries. Please help spread the word!

Organized by Boston Coalition for Palestinian Rights

"\;Gasland"\;\, the award winning documentary about frack $\\"\\"$ ing that won the Special Jury Prize for a Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival\, will be shown at The Robbins Library as part of their free independent film series in Arlington.

Fracking is a hydraulic fracturing process that releases natural gas from underground. When filmmaker Josh Fox is asked to lease his land for drilling\, he embarks on a cross-country road trip to find the answer to this question. He finds residents who are able to light their drinking water on fire and many other absurd and astonishing revelations. Gasland is a cross country odyssey with unexpected humor\, uncovering a trail of secrets\, lies and contamination.

Large portions of our military members and veterans are suffering from Military Sexual Trauma (MST)\, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)\, and/or Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) yet their right to heal is violated on a mass scale. Traumatized service members have been forced to deploy against the best interest of their health and well being throughout the Global War on Terror. Now with the return of troops from Iraq\, the military is trying to skirt it&rsquo\;s responsibilities to care for service members. Military leaders and service providers are giving inadequate care\, pushing improper diagnoses\, and forcing thousands of service members to leave the military with no care or benefits by pursuing punitive discharges for troops who really need medical and mental health care. Members of IVAW will share about these realities and what is needed today.

In 1948\, the western part of the city fell under Israeli control\; in 1967\, the eastern part fell under Israeli occupation.
