WAWA/WeAreWideAwake is my Public Service to America as a muckracker who has journeyed seven times to Israel Palestine since June 2005.
WAWA is dedicated to confronting media and governments that shield the whole
truth.
We who Are Wide
Awake are compelled by the "fierce urgency of Now" [Rev MLK, Jr.] to raise
awareness and promote the human dialogue about many of the crucial issues of our
day: the state of our Union and in protection of democracy, what life is like
under military occupation in Palestine, the Christian EXODUS from the Holy Land,
and spirituality-from a Theologically Liberated Christian Anarchist
POV.
"Observe good faith and justice towards all nations; cultivate peace and harmony with all...and passionate attachments for others, should be excluded; and that, in place of them, just and amicable feelings towards all should be cultivated. The nation which indulges towards another a habitual hatred or a habitual fondness is in some degree a slave...a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils." George Washington's Farewell Address - 1796
"My aim is to agitate & disturb people. I'm not selling bread, I'm selling yeast." Unamuno
"Imagine All the People Sharing All the World." John Lennon
"If enough Christians followed the gospel, they could bring any state to its knees." Father Philip Francis Berrigan
"You can stand me up at the gates of hell, but I won't back down." Tom Petty
"If I can't dance, it's not my revolution." Emma Goldman
"We have yet to begin to IMAGINE the power and potential of the Internet." Charlie Rose, 2005

We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights; that, among these, are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; and, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it. -July 4, 1776.

FaceBook, Mordechai Vanunu: Wrapping it up and Moving On
FaceBook, Mordechai Vanunu: Wrapping it up
and Moving On
In
2005, during my first of seven investigative journeys to both sides of the Wall in
Israel Palestine, I began a series of interviews with Israel’s Nuclear Whistle,
Mordechai Vanunu and arranged this interview conducted by MONKEY FIST PRODUCTIONS:
WeAreWideAwake.org
went online three weeks after that interview while I was in Berkley, California
and you can read about that here:
I first joined Facebook in November 2008 but was
deactivated by the powers that be in July 2009, for my politically incorrect
activism for Vanunu's right to freedom: [ Read more... Eileen Fleming is NOT on
Facebook since she was Deactivated]
I returned to Facebook in Dec. 2009, under the pseudonym Joe Flannigan [a fictional
character in a book I was writing at the time] with the intent to get human
rights activists and people of conscience to learn about, support and work for Vanunu's freedom and a Nuclear FREE Middle East-and world!
At the time, I had no intention
of revealing my true identity, but on August 11, 2010, I received an invitation
from Vanunu to be Facebook friends.
I responded, I was NOT Joe Flannigan, but the Eileen Fleming, who was banned by
Facebook for her political activism in support of him in July 2009: Read more...
After making Facebook friends with Vanunu, I also 'outed' myself to the few Facebook I had made at the time, which as of this writing has grown to over 3,600 who 'know' me by this icon:
On 7 September 2010, a Vanunu supporter from the UK, John Tyrrell asked me to be an Administrator of the Facebook Cause he
founded, Free Mordechai Vanunu which as of this writing has accrued 6,452 members
I accepted, but as times have changed and for many reason, I am deactivating my Facebook account on 6 November
2012-election day in USA.
I chose that day because after I 'birthed' this website, a crazy dream to run for Congress came to me and would not let go.
On 9 January 2011, I announced my candidacy for US HOUSE, District 5, Fl:
Today, I wrapped it up at YouTube:
I reaffirm all I have ever said or written, but because family
matters more to me than politics or striving to change the world by telling the
truth and writing my heart out in oped’s;
And because my
father died last week Read more... and my mother [his loving wife for 63 years] is lost without him and as their only child in the state; conscience calls me to
move on from impossible dreams and focus first on family matters.
I am also deactivating my Facebook account, I won’t
read or respond to any more of the numerous email listserves I am on, and I will begin the editing my fourth and write my fifth book:
“Vanunu WAITS for LIBERTY, Remembering the USS LIBERTY and My Life as a
Candidate of Conscience for US HOUSE 2012” and “Family Matters” which will
enshrine many of the writings of my Pop/John Kasmir, who wanted to be a writer and reporter.
I have
inherited my father’s brief case full of writings and I am compelled to
enshrine them-if for no one else but our family- because what I learned from my
Pop is that the best one can do is always tell the truth, forgive all hurts, see and
speak the humor in all situations and circumstances and keep on moving on!
So, I am
putting my ‘baby’ –WeAreWideAwake.org -up for sale, and even if the buyer only wants
it for the Google Rating and may well indeed delete my seven year labor of love, I don't care; because freedom for me is all about following my conscience, doing my best and detaching from outcome.
As conscience calls and Family Matters most of all, this will be my final entry at WeAreWideAwake.org , which was established in 2005 as a public service after my first of seven investigative journeys to the so called Holy Land- which is in pieces!
I am Eileen
Fleming, I have been a candidate of Conscience for US HOUSE 2012 and I
approve of all of my messages.
"HOPE has two children.The first is ANGER at the way things are. The second is COURAGE to DO SOMETHING about it."-St. Augustine
"He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust." - Aquinas
Everyone has the right to freedom of
opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions
without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and
ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.
" In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway."-Mother Teresa
“You cannot talk like sane men around a peace table while the atomic bomb itself is ticking beneath it. Do not treat the atomic bomb as a weapon of offense; do not treat it as an instrument of the police. Treat the bomb for what it is: the visible insanity of a civilization that has ceased...to obey the laws of life.”- Lewis Mumford, 1946
The age of warrior kings and of warrior presidents has passed. The nuclear age calls for a different kind of leadership....a leadership of intellect, judgment, tolerance and rationality, a leadership committed to human values, to world peace, and to the improvement of the human condition. The attributes upon which we must draw are the human attributes of compassion and common sense, of intellect and creative imagination, and of empathy and understanding between cultures." - William Fulbright
“Any nation that year after year continues to raise the Defense budget while cutting social programs to the neediest is a nation approaching spiritual death.” - Rev. MLK

"On the day of the termination of the British mandate and on the strength of the United Nations General Assembly declare The State of Israel will be based on freedom, justice and peace as envisaged by the prophets of Israel: it will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion it will guarantee freedom of religion [and] conscience and will be faithful to the Charter of the United Nations." - May 14, 1948.
