. . . many of us
have dark moments of hopelessness and despair. We know that under
the spreading canopy of the War Against Terrorism, the men in
suits are hard at work. While bombs rain down on us, and cruise
missiles skid across the skies, we know that contracts are being
signed, patents are being registered, oil pipelines are being
laid, natural resources are being plundered, water is being privatized
and George Bush is planning to go to war against Iraq.
