Lieberman, Gebhardt and Edwards support a war on Iraq, according to NYTimes today. Since they plan to run for president in 2004, we should know that they support a war now. In today's editorial, the NY Times support a war. I am disappointed in the NYTimes. Folks in Seattle should cancel their subscriptions in protest. As Peter Scheer pointed out in one editorial, many countries are in violation of the UN Resolution 1441. I cannot imagine why Bush and the NYTimes wants to rush us into war. On Powell, Scheer said: "It took two decades for Powell, in his autobiography "My American Journey, " to acknowledge that all the destruction brought down upon Indochina by the U.S. was based on an uneducated, unfocused and enormously costly policy that he and other military leaders had known to be "bankrupt." But duty, apparently, required they not tell the public the truth. "War should be the politics of last resort. And when we go to war, we should have a purpose that our people understand and support," he wrote, summarizing Vietnam's lessons." Excerpt from article, "Only by Swallowing Big Lies Can Powell Justify a War " latimes.com. SI Reference: Message 18543409 TP, huge crowds gathered here as well. Hopefully, the Blair government will collapse.
