The Lewiston office window of Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins sported an anti-war sign for six hours on Friday. Inside the office we read the names of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq and an equal number of innocent Iraqi civilians. A high proportion of the Iraqi names were children and elderly. We are demanding that the senator hold a public town hall meeting on Iraq in the state. Her staff has advised us that she does not feel comfortable with large crowds.

About Me
- Name: Bruce K. Gagnon

The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

War may not be the answer, but it sure can make the questions go away.

oops
I agree with Vic.
There will be no more viable answer than 'War,' just as long as the question remains 'How can the wealthiest and most powerful fraction of the world's population best maintain the unjust order that benefits us?'
Where the hell do you get "Unjust" from? Who makes the rules of justice you follow?
