- World War III? Israel currently is involved in military action on two fronts: it has sent forces into Gaza after members of the terrorist organization Hamas captured an Israeli soldier on June 25, and it has sent forces into Lebanon, fired missiles at the airport in Beirut, and imposed a naval blockade on Lebanon’s ports after members of the terrorist organization Hezbollah abducted two Israeli soldiers on July 12. The United States and other G-8 countries have supported Israel’s right to self-defense but have said that Israel should refrain from acts that destabilize Lebanon’s government (statement on-line here).
- The Word: Solidarity. An issue pending before the National Labor Relations Board is whether nurses who give care assignments to other nurses should be classified as supervisors who are illegible for union membership; three cases raising this issue are called the “Kentucky River” decisions based on a Kentucky facility that sought to block charge nurses from becoming union members. The NLRB decided in June not to hold hearings on the issue, and union members held rallies around the country on the issue. A NLRB statement on the issue is on-line here.
