Tom Hayden on the London incident on Huffpost

London Bombings Destroy Bush-Blair Strategy
So much for Tony Blair's hope to "put Iraq behind us." The dustbin now awaits George Bush's argument that "we must take the fight to the enemy over there so we don't have to fight them at home." Imperial fantasies, as shattered as the London transit system. The G-8 leaders feign innocence while the innocents die.

1. Very Good! I needed to read
something sane on what happened today. Thanks!

I liked what Jann Werner had to say, too.

2. Excellent! Consider posting in GDP or "Articles & Ed."?
I've been in the (hearing and class) room with Tom Hayden. He is the real deal.

And here he talks about SOLUTION-BUILDING:

"....The lesson should be that Bush has put the West, including the American people, at life-and-death risk by going to war for fabrications. We will never be "safer" as long as we invade and occupy Iraq, prop up the Saudi dictators, and crawl towards only a token Palestinian state. We will be safe when we no longer forcibly occupy Muslim lands in the oil-driven search for dominance.
.....

"It is time for the peace movement and congressional allies to show solidarity with the British people by getting to the bottom of the Downing Street Memorandums scandal which the smug American media continues to downplay.

"It is time for dialogue with the 82 Iraqi parliamentarians - one-third of the American-sponsored regime - who are calling for a timetable for American withdrawal.

When governments, through their march to folly, fail to protect their own citizens, it is time for those citizens to push their governments aside and become the peacemakers."
