Naomi Klein

Any movement serious about Iraqi self-determination must call not only for an end to Iraq’s military occupation, but to its economic colonisation as well.

Dear Officers of the Law

Stop the War Coalition

Every citizen has a duty to report crimes to the police.  When a crime is reported it is the duty of the authorities to investigate the reported crimes and arrest, charge and prosecute the offenders if there is a case to answer. We the people of the United Kingdom, call upon you the officers of the law, to arrest Tony Blair for heinous war crimes against the people of Iraq.

Read It and Weep

Art Buchwald

If you’re wondering why Johnny can’t read, ask yourself, “Do we need books in America to educate our children?” It’s the old guns vs. butter story - an aircraft carrier or Mark Twain, a Black Hawk helicopter or Shakespeare.

Someone is Watching Over You

Darlene Mariani

What books have you checked out lately? What websites have you visited? What have you ordered online? Who have you spoken to on the phone? Do you think this doesn’t matter to anyone? It matters to John Ashcroft.

Death Be Not Loud

Maureen Dowd

But let’s look at it from the president’s point of view: if he grieves more publicly or concretely, if he addresses every instance of bad news, like the hideous spectre of Iraqis’ celebrating the downing of the Chinook, he will simply remind people of what’s going on in Iraq.

An Message to the Rulers of the Muslim World

Khilafa.com Editorial

There is no denying you have failed Islam and the Muslim people. You have collectively failed to protect Islam, and you have opened up Muslim lands to blasphemy and exploitation.
