Gee, I guess the American public is just unaware of what is really going on. I'm pretty sure they're not stupid or anything. God bless America? Now what does that mean? Do you think God JUST blesses America? Do you you think she doesn't also bless Iraq? Now who would Jesus bomb? Hmmmmmmm . . .

Wednesday :: January 22, 2003 On Pinter's Poem About War in Iraq Today in The Guardian, playwright Harold Pinter published a poem about America's intended military confrontation with Iraq. Here's the poem: Wednesday January 22, 2003 The Guardian Here they go again, The Yanks in their armoured parade Chanting their ballads of joy As they gallop across the big world Praising America's God. The gutters are clogged with the dead The ones who couldn't join in The others refusing to sing The ones who are losing their voice The ones who've forgotten the tune. The riders have whips which cut. Your head rolls onto the sand Your head is a pool in the dirt Your head is a stain in the dust Your eyes have gone out and your nose Sniffs only the pong of the dead And all the dead air is alive With the smell of America's God. © Harold Pinter, January 2003
