Unless the United Nations gives its approval, the port workers have voted to support that position and intend to request other Saint John workers and citizens to adopt the same stance. The Iraqi war will be an immoral war. Religious leaders of all denominations and millions of people throughout the world have spoken out against an attack on the Iraqi people. It is clear that there are more peaceful means with which to eliminate the threat of the Saddam Hussein regime. Only in the United States of America, does there appear to be a majority of people in favour of this war. A steady diet of pro-war propaganda from the U.S. administration and a compliant American media have done its job. We urge our American friends to seek out the truth about this war. We urge them to listen to the religious leaders and the peoples around our globe who are stating clearly and unequivocally that this war is wrong. We urge our American friends to imagine themselves in the place of the innocent Iraqi men, women and children who will be the victims of a bombing attack. I.L.A. Local 273 spokesperson Patrick Riley has commented that, "While church and state may be separated, you cannot separate a people from its conscience. We hope and pray that the American conscience will prevail before a full-scale attack occurs and more innocent lives are lost." He added that, "The U.N. inspectors have been making progress. We can unfortunately only speculate about how much more successful they would be, if they were working in tandem with other U.N. agencies for the purposes of providing assistance to the Iraqi people." from NYCLAW <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ======================= 22222222222222222222222 Justice Scalia says war justifies rights' recess ------------------------------------------------ The Anchorage Daily News Tues, March 18, 2003 http://www.adn.com/24hour/special_reports/terrorism/story/814411p-5777643c.h tml Justice Scalia says war justifies rights' recess The Associated Press UNIVERSITY HEIGHTS, Ohio (March 18, 7:06 p.m. AST) - The government has room to scale back individual rights during wartime without violating the Constitution, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia said Tuesday. "The Constitution just sets minimums," Scalia said after a speech at John Carroll University in suburban Cleveland. "Most of the rights that you enjoy go way beyond what the Constitution requires." Scalia, one of the court's most conservative judges, was responding to a question about the Justice Department's pursuit of terrorism suspects and whether their rights are being violated. Scalia did not discuss what rights he believed are constitutionally protected, but said that in wartime, one can expect "the protections will be ratcheted right down to the constitutional minimum. I won't let it go beyond the constitutional minimum." Scalia was interrupted once briefly by a protester who shouted an anti-war statement. The protester was removed from the room by security officers but was not arrested. Scalia stopped speaking during the scuffle, then joked that the protest probably was more interesting than his topic, which was the constitutional protection of religions. =================== 3333333333333333333 Kucinich On the American Led Attack On Iraq Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH), who leads opposition in the House to the war in Iraq, issued the following statement upon the American attack against Iraq: "This is a sad day for America, the world community, and the people of Iraq. Tonight, I hope and pray for the safe return of our troops and the end to this unjustified war." "President Bush has launched an unprovoked attack against another country. Iraq does not pose an imminent threat to the United States or any of its neighboring nations. Iraq was not responsible for the terrorist attacks of September 11. Tonight, President Bush has commanded U.S. forces to go to war in violation of American traditions of defensive war that have lasted since George Washington. This war is wrong; it violates the Constitution and international law." Congressman Kucinich will issue daily statements on the war in Iraq. Please pass these statements on to your friends.

But what is a small country to do, faced with the overwhelming and bullying might of a superpower, other than say "yes, sir"?

Then, simultaneously, anti-war protestors, as promised, hit the streets promptly at 7 a.m. The groups had a very amazing and successful strategy to break up into many smaller (yet large) groups and are roving around all the major intersections, freeway on ramps into the city (including the Bay Bridge). It shutdown downtown. I did not think that they would be successful, since they tried this last Friday. But, many more came than I expected, and they are hard core, ready to be arrested. The news reports advise the public to stay out of downtown. I thought it would be over by now. Not. And, the police have now seemingly given up. There are no police stopping them. There have been about 350-500 arrests, but the protestors created such a traffic halt that the paddy wagons and buses could not get to the arrestees. I have been hold up in my apartment. You can't get out, and if you get out, there is! no guarantee that you can ever get back in any time soon. The news reporters admitted that they just can't keep up with the roving protestors. Market Street is a ghost town, just the protestors walking up and down the street at will. I tried to get out to run some errands, I thought the crowd had moved on to another intersection. When I came out of the stores there they were again. I ducked back into my apartment as quickly as I could as I found myself walking with them side by side, quite accidently. I realized I could be scooped up by police as a protestor. As I try to conduct work, I find the noise from the helicopters, the horn honking of frustration and support, and the crowd itself is quite deafening and very distracting. The television is 100% reporting the war combat, with local news breaks reporting on 100% anti-war protestors. BART is now shutdown after hundreds of high school children stormed the Fruitvale station, a major station - and this is the Black community of Oakland. Ironically, the Asian Art Museum opened today. Major dignitaries there requiring police. Today, police are stretched. This is really amazing to experience. The protestors are also at Civic Center, in front of City Hall, about 100 yards across the street from the Asian Art Museum. The Fire Department is reporting that it is experiencing major delays in being able to respond to calls. The reports are that at any given time, 20-30 major intersections are being blocked. R Platkin forwarded by E Pearl ============== 88888888888888 I happened to pick up a copy of the NY Post from a subway seat on the way home last night (The paper that used to have excellent columns and reportage years ago before Murdoch converted it to his usual formula of sex, violence, and hate.). There in vivid color with accompanying descriptions were portrayed seven missiles to be potentially dropped on Iraq. I will spare readers details of all of the above, but one is the MOAB -- "The 9.5-ton Massive Ordinance Air Blast bomb will be the largest munition used in Iraq. Dropped by C-130 Hercules transport aircraft [such as those which Turkey has just allowed the U.S. to overfly its airspace.], it is satellite-guided. It creates a mushroom cloud similar to that of a nuclear bomb, destroying everything in a 1,000 ft. radius." One of these was demonstrated in Florida last week. Just a few minutes ago NY1 ran through our various U.S. aircraft and their specialties in delivering weapons of destruction. Will spare readers all of these, too, but the modified B-52, which was around in the Viet Nam era can lay down a pattern of carpet bombs. As I recall, this means that an area something like a quarter of a mile long and several hundred yards wide will be hit by a pattern of high concussion bombs that will kill anything in their path -- small birds and rodents to small children. Somehow I can't get it into my head why the weapons used by terrorists -- generally pretty low tech so far -- are potential weapons of mass destruction whereas those described above that we may or may not drop on Iraq are not? Seems to me one is just as dead or maimed by any of the above? Pardon my puzzlement, but I seem to be out of step with current propaganda along these lines. Seems to me that any who use the weapons boasted above are just as much war criminals as the garden variety of suicide bombers or whatever? -- Ed Kent =========== 99999999999 Events in Chicago For an article on the Chicago demonstration, go to http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-030320protests,1,6052252.story?coll=chi%2Dnews%2Dhed Thousands of people gathered at the federal plaza and for the next three hours stopped traffic on lake shore drive as they marched to Oak and Michigan...

Mary Wright, deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Ulan Bator, Mongolia, cited U.S. policy toward Iraq, North Korea (news - web sites) and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as reasons for her decision to step down, said the official, who asked not to be named. The official did not know when Wright's resignation took effect. "I strongly believe that going to war now will make the world more dangerous, not safer," Wright, the senior- most U.S. diplomat to step down over Iraq, said in a letter to Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web sites) that quoted by the Washington Post. The newspaper said Wright also criticized what she called a "lack of policy on North Korea" and a "lack of effort" by Washington to try to resolve the Israeli- Palestinian conflict. Wright followed John H. Brown, a former cultural attache at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, and John Brady Kiesling, political counselor at the U.S. Embassy in Athens, in stepping down this year because of U.S. policy on Iraq. The United States began its war against Iraq on Wednesday by bombing targets on the outskirts of Baghdad and it attacked key sites in the Iraqi capital with cruise missiles on Thursday in an effort to end Iraqi President Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)'s rule. ==================== 11.11.11.11.11.11.11. Subject: Protest in Augusta, Maine Over 55 people plus children gathered around the west side traffic rotary in Augusta, Maine to protest the American invasion of Iraq on Thursday evening beginning at 5:00 P.M. For over an hour, members of the Women in Black (they hold a vigil every Friday from 12 Noon to 1:00 P.M. in front of Lithgow Library) and the Thursday Evening Peace Vigil displayed signs and candles to protest appointed President Bush's unending war policies. At the beginning of the demonstration, people were on the inside and outside of the rotary. Augusta police appeared on the scene. One officer rolled down his window and asked me "Are you the leader of this?" I missed my chance to say, "Yes, I am Spartacus". I didn't, but I did tell him that I was not the leader. He went around to some others inquiring as to leadership, but finally just asked everyone to move to the inside of the rotary. I don't know if that's legal, but we did anyway, and it turned out the better for us. It's a sad day for democracy. While in New York City this past weekend for the Socialist Scholars Conference, I saw soldiers with M16s in the subway station. They were either National Guard or Reserves, one was in the late teens and the other looked to be in his 50s. All I could think of was the Home Guard for the Third Reich, and how they were composed of the young and the old. When I was in High School in the late 50s, I read "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich". My High School Principal found out that I had read the book, and asked me what I thought of it. I told him that I had not known there was another country like America. Same as it ever was. Roger Leisner ====================== 12.12.12.12.12.12.12.12 Another World is Possible: What the Peace Movement Has Accomplished By Bob Wing March 19, 2003 War Times newspaper, www.war-times.org As the bombs begin to rain down on Iraq, all of us are dealing with grief, anger, and depression. Surely these feelings will be with us for a long time, and we must take care of each other and ourselves in the harsh days and weeks to come. It will be helpful if we keep fresh in our minds what the worldwide peace movement has accomplished. Although the Bush administration is going to war, we have inflicted surprising, important defeats upon it. It is far weaker today than it was just a short time ago. Another world is not only possible; change is already underway, and we are helping to drive it. The world is much different now than just six months ago. At that time we faced the prospect of the U.S. steamrolling Iraq before an acquiescent world. We faced the possibility that the vast majority of the people of our own country would become cruel accomplices in the murderous drive to empire. Washington was billing itself as the new British or Roman Empire, boasting of its coming glory. No longer. Now Washington stands isolated and humiliated in full public view. The would-be emperor has no clothes. The decision to go to war with Iraq is exposed as immoral, illegal and downright monstrous. Whatever moral authority the U.S. government once held has been largely squandered. Whatever sense of immortality and invincibility it once had, has been seriously undermined. Surely not everyone understands this, but hundreds of millions, possibly billions of people do. In our own country, we have much work to do, but the peace movement is much larger than most of us dreamed it would be just a year ago. After a six-month full court press of bullying, threatening, bribery and bluster, the world's only superpower came up almost empty handed. Small and poor countries like the Cameroon, Chile and Angola felt empowered to snub Washington's war drive. Its longtime allies France and Germany fought it to the end. Its newfound crony Russia said forget about it. Its partner in globalization, China, said no. Formerly dependent South Korea rose against U.S. militarism. One Latin American country after another is electing progressive, anti-globalization, anti-U.S. militarist leaders. Turkey could not be bought for $26 billion. Washington's lone allies, Tony Blair and Jose Maria Aznar, are in deep political trouble. The last six months have shown that the U.S. may be a military superpower, but its economic, diplomatic, political and moral reach is more limited and diminishing. Most important of all, and underlying all the other developments, is the emergence of a new superpower: the world's people. As one we rose up on Feb. 15 to smite the empire. Antiwar sentiment is so great in most countries that even most reactionary leaders dare not cross us. People in more than 600 U.S. cities organized antiwar protests, millions took to the streets and more than 150 cities passed peace resolutions. Earlier this month a poll showed that Bush would be defeated by any Democrat if an election were held now. The U.S. may launch a cowardly war, but we must be sure that in response we increase our will and our organization. In the months and years to come, we must make sure the Iraqis do not die in vain. Having accomplished much, we still face major challenges. Undoubtedly Washington and the corporate media will orchestrate a major reactionary appeal in the weeks to come. We have a giant peace movement in the U.S. But we are not the majority. Our peace organizations and coalitions need strengthening so that they can become effective over the long run. We need to improve our ability to connect domestic with international issues, address racism and to effectively oppose the reactionary U.S.-Israeli alliance. We must learn how to grow our movement while simultaneously deepening its politics and organizations. The peace movement is more important than ever. In the short run we must fight to shorten the war, limit the damage, save as many lives as possible, and make a lengthy U.S. occupation of Iraq untenable. In the long run, we must defeat Bush's militaristic plan for global and local empire. What a dizzying period of change, of victory and defeat, euphoria and grief! This is what movements are made of. Let us not lose sight of what we have accomplished. Let us instead take heart that a new world is not only possible, it is in the making. If we fight on, stay strong, patient and smart, we can help to shape it. # These thoughts went out yesterday to War Times e-mail announcement list.

ORDER IN MULTIPLES OF 25 PLEASE Distributors and friends of War Times: As we wait today (Wednesday, March 19) feeling horror and shame about the soon-to-begin US attack on Iraq, we must still try to look ahead. Unlike many Iraqis, in April we (people advocating for peace who happen to be located in the US) will still be alive and still able to speak and educate for a world where the war of the stronger against the weaker is not the only answer. And as we say on the front cover of War Times, "the first casualty of war is truth." More than ever, we will need a tool to help us talk with people about the Bush policy. As we know, this policy of preemptive war for permanent US world domination not only spreads death and destruction abroad but also undercuts any effort to build a just society here in the US.
