Quotations

We were not against the US and for Iraq; we were against the war, and many of us were against all war, all weapons of mass destruction—even ours—and all violence, everywhere. We are not just an antiwar movement. We are a peace movement.” (TomDispatch, May 19, 2003; photo inthesetimes.com)
