Visit our website: HTTP://WWW.STOPNATO.ORG.UK ---------------------------------------------A "cowardly" attack?... Possibly - though yesterday's attackers were fully prepared to pay the price with their own lives. Certainly, this was no turkey-shoot for button-pushing NATO pilots with relatively little to fear - like those willing to launch rocket propelled missiles at vulnerable Serb civilians from the comparative safety of 15,000 feet... Now innocent Americans too, exposed to it by irresponsible leaders, reap the inevitable whirlwind - the illegitimate "collateral damage" of legitimate anger. And we weep for them, like all the others. Meanwhile, far from television cameras - thus denying our equally justified grief anything of the dramatic visual impetus generated by collapsing skyscrapers in New York... every day, for more than 10 years, round the clock bombing of obscure but innocent people in countless far smaller Iraqi towns and villages is still kept up relentlessly, without a pause, by American and British jets.
