Dear all
As usual there is a grain of truth in what Paul says and, as usual, there
is a great deal of of wilful fabrication.
Just one point because I am tired and people have better things to do than
read these mailings. It may not count much to Paul but just a mile of so
away from the site of the WTC there have already been peace protests in
Unions Square. People have been laying down peace symbols, singing peace
songs, protesting the militarist statements of the US government. I think
it is remarkable that this is happening in a place that has been so
shattered. Everyone I have spoken to in the US is worried by and opposed to
American military threats. It is indeed wrong to essentialise "America" in
this way.
