Let the peace camp be a wide open field - Media Monitors Network (MMN)

This is a must read:

The author is an America-Arab whose writings I have enjoyed before in different venues.

He brings up several people and topics about whom and which, I have had gut feelings that I did not like having.

I have to say, I think he is right on a few of them, and it makes me sick to my stomach.

But, this nauseating momentm, too, shall pass, and I will be even more ready for a fight, better informed; in heart, mind and gut.


Home / Headlines / Let the peace camp be a wide open field - Media Monitors Network (MMN):

"We are now caught in another sideshow revolving around the president's veracity and his 'right' to declassify intelligence. That might be an important question, if he had any credibility left to squander.'




One by one, they�re coming to terms with the absurdity of this ruinous war of choice. As they make their way to the peace camp, roll out the red carpets. Let them stroll in with heads held high.
Even if they only repent for what the war has done to �us�, embrace them as your brothers in the struggle. If they insist on wearing blinders, let them be. Avoiding the glare of Iraqi casualties is a sin we can deal with at a later time.
If Francis Fukuyama and Bill Buckley have a change of mind that leads to a change of heart � respect them for the courage to modify their convictions.
It serves no purpose to tattoo time stamps on the arms of those who come tardy to the peace party. Let the peace camp be a wide open field that welcomes every American with ideological indifference. "
