How to End the Iraq War

Tom Hayden produces a nice blueprint on How to End the Iraq War.

Before everyone goes crazy, yes Hayden was one of the Chicago Eight. Yes he was with Jane Fonda. But he is also a person who has a vision and passion for justice and peace.

"Our priorities must change. Both parties now are trapped in the vicious cycle of the "war on terrorism," just as they were caught up in the Cold War, be it the nuclear arms race, opportunistic alliances with dictators, and McCarthyite suppression of domestic critics. Only the Sixties peace and civil rights movements could finally shatter Cold War thinking at that time. It will take another such movement today to restore America's respect in the world, take steps towards global justice, and in the process possibly prevent another 9/11 attack."
