War and land 
- a compilation from Information Clearing House

They hang the man and flog the woman
That steal the goose from off the common,
But let the greater villain loose
That steals the common from the goose.

 The law locks up the man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common'
And geese will still a common lack
Till they go and steal it back.

English folk poem, circa 1764 

 Why George Bush is Insane 

 By Harold Pinter 

 The US is at this moment developing advanced systems of "weapons of mass
destruction" and it prepared to use them where it sees fit. It has more of
them than the rest of the world put together. It has walked away from
international agreements on biological and chemical weapons, refusing to
allow inspection of its own factories. The hypocrisy behind its public
declarations and its own actions is almost a joke.

"America is a quarter of a billion people totally misinformed and
disinformed by their government. This is tragic but our media is -- I
wouldn't even 
 say corrupt -- it's just beyond telling us anything that the government
doesn't want us to know." Gore Vidal 

 =

 Constant apprehension of war has the same tendency to render the head too
large for the body. A standing military force with an overgrown 
 executive will not long be safe. companions to liberty. -- Thomas Jefferson

 Resist The War Drive Against Iran

 By George Galloway. MP

 The commander of the ship HMS Cornwall unwittingly captured the mentality
of imperial occupation when he said the sailors had been captured in "our
waters". He meant the waters belonging under international law and treaty
to the Republic of Iraq.

 Brinkmanship Unwise in Uncharted Waters

 By Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) 

 There is real danger that this incident, and the way it plays out, may
turn out to be outgoing British Prime Minister Tony Blair's last gesture of
fealty to President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, and
"neo-conservative" advisers who, this time, are looking for a casus belli
to "justify" air strikes on Iran.

 Iran - How To Start A War

 Robert Fisk On Shakespeare And War 

 By Robert Fisk

 In an age when we are supposed to believe in the "War on Terror", we may
quarry our way through Shakespeare's folios in search of Osama bin Laden
and George W Bush with all the enthusiasm of the mass murderer who prowls
through Christian and Islamic scriptures in search of excuses for ethnic
cleansing. Indeed, smiting the Hittites, Canaanites and Jebusites is not
much different from smiting the Bosnians or the Rwandans or the Arabs.

 A Sacred Right

 By Salman Abu-Sitta

 Why should I, a Jew from north London, be permitted to take up Israeli
citizenship, when that right is denied to a Palestinian who languishes in a
refugee camp in Lebanon? Especially when I acknowledge that a large
majority of those that left in 1948 were ethnically cleansed by Israeli
forces.

 George Bush's Land Mine:
 : 
 George Bush has a land mine planted in the supplemental appropriation
legislation working its way through Congress. - He threatens a veto, but he

obscured is a near-guarantee of success for the Bush Administration's true
objective of the war-capturing Iraq's oil-and George Bush will not casually
forego that.
