I wish more people who decide matters at high levels get to read such material.

ANNOUNCEMENT: (for anyone in or near NYC)

For anyone interested in voicing protest, there is an anti-war rally in Time Square on Saturday. Its also happening in other cities.

Great article. Well researched and comprehensive. It`s good to read your informative article when faced with the US media`s silence over the worst economic sanctions in history and war hysteria. (It almsot seems like CNN will strike if Billy boy decides not to). It is unfortunate that the mainstream debate in the US is on Hussein`s weapons and the potential achievements of an air strike and nothing about the sanctions.

I (and I am sure other readers) look forward to other articles by you. How about something on the so-called peace process in occupied Palestine?
