Despite being written by someone in what I would consider a right-wing think tank, this article gives an interesting historical perspective on the risks of war.
“Going into Iraq in 2003 will be easy just as it was for the French going into Germany in the 1790s, just as it was for the Israelis going into Lebanon in 1982. But then will come the hard part, the bloody part, the heartbreaking part.”
I am feeling more optimistic today. The opposition to Bush’s war is growing not shrinking, despite Bush & Co’s attempt to pull out all the stops. Wherever you are in the world, be sure you join an anti-war rally on Saturday! Let Bush hear the message loud and clear: “The World Says No to War!”
