NY Times - Way to go ACLU. Why don't you join it or the Electronic Freedom Foundation or the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund today?

Another link from NY Times : THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN
"It's also not true that the public is solidly against taking on Saddam Hussein. What is true is that most Americans are perplexed. The most oft-asked question I heard was some variation of: "How come all of a sudden we have to launch a war against Saddam? I realize that he's thumbed his nose at the U.N., and he has dangerous weapons, but he's never threatened us, and, if he does, couldn't we just vaporize him? What worries me are Osama and the terrorists still out there." We can stop Saddam, we cannot stop the young Muslims, and the "young, angry undeterrables will blow us up long before Saddam ever does." Increasing peace, opportunity, and secular democracy will save us, not creating a fundamentalist war zone.
