By John Brown Last Friday afternoon, as I watched the horrid images of the first "shock and awe" U.S. bombing blitz against Baghdad, which doubtless brought terror to millions of innocent civilians, my feelings of outrage at the Bush administration were joined by a sense of relief that was perhaps inappropriate at such a shameful moment in our history. I was relieved that, eleven days before, I had submitted my resignation from the U.S. foreign service. Numerous circumstances led to my resignation, but there were two main reasons. First, I believed that U.S. President George W. Bush had failed to present a convincing case to Americans and the world that massive force should be used against Iraq at this time. Second, I felt an obligation as an American to speak out against this presidential failure to justify a questionable policy. http://www.themoscowtimes.com/stories/2003/03/24/006.html read full story / add a comment

I hate to interrupt the SWP/SP 'its my movement' 'no its mine' fest in progress but activists in San Francisco are about to bring the city to a halt for the third working day in a row. Over 1400 have already been arrested but the impact is massive. Watch it as it happens at http://sf.indymedia.org/ and lets think about doing this in Dublin, Cork, Belfast etc read full story / add a comment
