I suspect he laughs off the candlelight vigils, but a scream would put the chill to him.
War Blogging
Posted on March 16, 2003 in Crosstalk Peace Pointers
The ways people choose to deal with the threat of war is not unlike the ways that people express grief over the death of a loved one. Here the loved one is World Peace. Some cry, some scream, some stay silent, some distract themselves. They are all valid responses to this insane situation.

World Opinion on Iraq

Will my fellow Americans start getting the hint that the world does not want this war?
Turkish News
Posted on March 16, 2003 in IRC/Chat Peace
Another of those stories which doesn’t seem to make it to the United States thanks to our so-called “liberal media” (the same people who have put the pressure on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to keep certain celiebrities off the podium lest they jinx the advertising revenues with anti-war statements.):
Apparently, before the recent action of the Turkish Parliament to reject the U.S. offer of $30 billion, George W. had the military send over boatloads of supplies to our bases there, in anticipation of using them as a bridgehead into northern Iraq. Now all that equipment and ammunition is still sitting on the Turkish bases.
My friends in Turkey are worried: what is going to happen? One complained to me on #travel at irc.icq.com:
they are keeping the most armory, atrucks everything in iskenderun port and they dont let us our own people in there, isnt it interesting?….america threatens us to disseminate our integrity by provoking the kurds
As my Turkish friends see it, as long as the arms remain in their country, there remains the risk that the United States will ignore international law and invade northern Iraq from their country against their will. We’ve already dispensed with one time-honored principle of American warmaking: no first strike. Will the next be to deny neutrality?
Alternate Realities of Water

Snow is just an alternate reality of water, the stuff that has been coming down here hard all day.

Can’t be too prepared when the old beast does her Hindenberg routine.
Republican Style Political Correctness

If I see any restaurants changing the name of the product to “Freedom Fries” I will sue them for false advertising.
