maybe this is just me, but i fail to see what the
impending war on iraq has to do with the events of
9/11... there is has yet to be any established link
between the hijackers and iraq.  (they were mostly
from saudi arabia, and al-qaida is supported from
many places, ranging from pakistan to egypt.)

perhaps if mr. northrup were to investigate
the matter, he might change his hyper-militant
views to more accurately chart a path to a better
world for all people.  then again, maybe not.
some people are just hell-bent on trying to make
violence a solution, despite having all of human
history to illustrate the fallacy of that view.

ps. i have a job, thanks.
