When one has to defend the indefensible. All truth must be buried.

It is said that with age comes wisdom. Benn is 77, a tea drinking self publicist, ex MP, who left wisdom behind with his teeth.

Born, Lord Stansgate, he inherited and continues to live on great inherited wealth and has never done a days useful work in his life.

To his credit he has got off his backside and at least met SH (or one of his many alleged lookalikes) giving us all a rare chance to evaluate the "monster".

For myself, I gave up believing anything said by anybody about Iraq / SH / DPRK / US Oil interests/ Israeli objectives etc.,as I was brought up during the Suez "crisis" when it eventually became evident that the French / Israelis / UK were peddling lies of unbelievable magnitude to their electors ( and military leaders).

I see Larry King is going to interview Condoleeza re Colin's UN fireside chat today, complete with pictures and fuzzy sound. I predict it will be as informative and truth filled as Benn's cozying up to SH. However professor Rice is easier on the eye, even if we do have to put up with the visual interference caused by Mr King's bizarre choice of braces ( I think US dwellers call them suspenders).

Any way, a friend of mine, who has a relative married to someone in the US Force, who was on leave and at the Suoperbowl was sitting next to a guy who writes for the Chicago Sun who knows somebody who lives next door to a guy who was in Bagdhad once who says definitely Dubya told him kick off time was Feb 15th 0300 EST. Approximately. Give a month or two either way.

PS If this prediction proves incorrect, I will have a very satisfactory explanation why it isn't.

Excellent post. Pacifism is too often a cover for cowardice and that's the case with most of these protestors.
And yes it does give them a chance to pretend moral superiority.
