The Council on American-Islamic Relations held a news conference in Anaheim Thursday alongside families who have loved ones trapped in Gaza to plead for the safe return of those caught in the war zone. Riverside County resident Helal Kaoud, whose father, brother and uncles went to visit family in Gaza when the war broke out, stood with her cousins during an emotional plea to get the Palestinian-Americans back home. "My dad, my 20-year-old brother and four of my uncles who are all U.S. citizens went to visit our family in Gaza,” Helal said, unable to hold back tears. “Two weeks into their vacation, the attacks started, and they are no longer safe and now our conversations have shifted from daily vacation updates to proof of life updates.” Shamiss Kaoud, whose father is also trapped in Gaza, spoke as well, saying their family is no different from anyone else’s in the U.S. “We just want this nightmare to be over and bring our families home,” she added.

Read more Letters to the Editor.Indigenous practicescan save the landI applaud the indigenous tribes who are able to get treatment as a state designation under the Clean Water Act. However, the inconsistency with which government offices support or oppose indigenous land stewardship efforts, with the changing of political administrations, concerns me.Indigenous cultures’ land stewardship practices are rarely implemented by non-indigenous land owners as they require significant care and attention and may take generations to become “profitable” as ecosystem services. Recognizing indigenous communities’ sovereignty and rights to determine the ecosystem health requirements is a good start, but Western cultures are not yet recognizing the rights of nature itself and our responsibilities to act in reciprocity toward it for our children’s sake.While we can’t control the weather, we can absolutely control our farming practice...Campbell: Owner moves, closes Brown Chicken Brown Cow restaurant
