Love and Dissent "We cannot find money to educate our children, we cannot find money for health care for our elders, we cannot find the 1.9 billion dollars that the veterans administration needs to care for the veterans of past wars. No, there is no money for that. But we can find 80 billion dollars to fight an unnecessary war in Iraq. This is wrong"

The Press and the Myths of War "If we saw how war turns young people into intoxicated killers, how it gives soldiers a license to destroy not only things but other human beings, and if we saw the perverse thrill such destruction brings, we would be horrified and frightened... If we saw the deep psychological scars of slaughter, the way it maims and stunts those who participate in war for the rest of their lives, we would keep our children away. Indeed, it would be hard to wage war"

Saying No To War "Last week the International Criminal Court was initiated with the formal election of judges. Next month the court will be official. Its purpose is exactly to deal with offenses like those of which Saddam stands accused... The court intends on the world scene what has already happened within nations -- the replacement of violent force with the force of law. A true alternative to war... But the 139 nations that signed the agreement no longer include the United States, since George W. Bush ''unsigned'' that treaty early in his term... lays bare the world's gravest problem -- an American contempt for the creation of alternatives to war"
