There have been more protests against Israel’s assault on Gaza. In California, 12 people were arrested Wednesday while blocking traffic near the Travis Air Force Base. Flights carrying U.S. weapons have departed from Travis, as have deportation flights.

Meanwhile, British police arrested the head of Greenpeace UK after activists from the group dyed a pond at the U.S. Embassy in London red to protest the U.S.'s role in fueling “an indiscriminate war that's seen bombs dropped on schools and hospitals, entire neighborhoods blasted to rubble, and tens of thousands of Palestinian lives obliterated.”
