CODEPINK Statement on Cuba's Removal from the US Terrorist List We applaud President Obama for the announcement today that Cuba will be taken off the list of state sponsors of terrorism. In addition to the economic embargo imposed in 1962, Cuba has unjustly languished on the U.S. State Department's state-sponsored terror list since 1982--despite posing no threat to the United States' national security. Today, we are happy to note that this has finally changed.

To Gaza, With Love When I traveled to Gaza last week, everywhere I went, a photo haunted me. And now that I am back home, the image comes to me when I look at children playing in the park, when I glance at the school across the street, when I go to sleep at night. It is a photo of a young Palestinian girl who is literally buried alive in the rubble from a bomb blast, with just her head protuding from the ruins. Her eyes are closed ...

Let's Whip Congress Into Shape! CODEPINK has been a near constant presence in DC since we rented a house a few blocks from the Capitol in March. This Fall we will move at an even faster clip.
