STOP THE WAR ON IRAQ BEFORE IT
STARTS! 10/18/2002 - Audio Version 36 minutes - Music du Jour - Bonus Mix First, I want to welcome those of you linking into democraticfundamentalism.org from other sites... I do my best to provide links to relevant news stories on other sites to provide you with independent verification of what I talk about. As I always say, you don't have to take my word for anything... I don't have to make this stuff up. Sean Penn takes on Bush over Iraq WASHINGTON (Reuters) -- Actor Sean Penn on Friday weighed in on the international debate over a possible war with Iraq, paying for a $56,000 advertisement in the Washington Post accusing U.S. President George W. Bush of stifling debate and threatening civil liberties. In an open letter to Bush taking up most of a page in the main section of the daily newspaper, the Oscar-nominated star of "I Am Sam" and "Dead Man Walking," urged the president to stop a cycle where "bombing is answered by bombing, mutilation by mutilation, killing by killing." "I beg you, help save America before yours is a legacy of shame and horror," Penn wrote, echoing voices of caution from around the world that have called for a measured response to allegations Iraq is developing weapons of mass destruction. The letter was signed "Sincerely, Sean Penn, San Francisco, California." A spokesman for the Washington Post confirmed that it was placed by the Hollywood celebrity, who has starred in more than 40 movies. Quoting Bush's declaration that the world was either "with us or against us" in the war on terrorism launched after the September 11, 2001, attacks, Penn, 42, said Bush was marginalizing critics, manipulating the media and promoting fear. Those actions and "your administration's deconstruction of civil liberties all contradict the very core of the patriotism you claim," wrote Penn. "Sacrificing American soldiers or innocent civilians in an unprecedented preemptive attack on a separate sovereign nation may well prove itself a most temporary medicine," he said.
To boldly go, the timeless and optimistic Space Age theme, looks to have been reclaimed from a NASA lost-and-found drawer as long-range planners prepare to reveal next month a new roadmap for robotic and human missions to deep space, SPACE.com has learned. The 21st Century, science-driven agenda is designed to propel exploration beyond the International Space Station and involves a new habitation complex that would be built between Earth and the Moon, serving as a portal to Mars and other solar system targets
A U.S. ecologist is prepared to throw a monkey wrench into those who want to develop space. Richard Steiner is prepared next week at the World Space Congress to call for a "kinder and gentler" paradigm for space exploration. He will call for the United Nations to regulate all human activity in space. Furthermore, he wants to have the UN designate the Moon as a World Heritage Site free from commercial development. Steiner, a professor and conservation specialist at the University of Alaska Marine Advisory Program wants to protect the Moon from "greedy industrialists, empire builders, or those with militant intention." In a statement made available to SPACE.com, Steiner said: "If the Moon belongs to anyone, it belongs to everyone." "If the Moon was defiled by some of the commercial development proposals in consideration at present, then humanity would be forever diminished," Steiner explains. "What goes on there should be the domain of not just the aerospace engineers and astronomers, but also the poets, musicians, artists, teachers young and old rich and poor."
Famed broadcaster Walker Cronkite gave the movie The Right Stuff a thumbs down for its sardonic portrayal of the American Mercury astronauts in the early 1960s. The way the movie treated that particularly book, and the book itself, I didnt think did justice to our NASA astronauts or the NASA program, he told attendees at the World Space Congress in Houston. Cronkite gave a verbal thumbs up to the movies 2001: A Space Odyssey; Apollo 13; and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. They thrilled us. They inspired us. Also enlightened us. They filled us with awe. They made us laugh and sometimes cry. They asked the big question of who we are. What is our place in the universe? A rather important question I think, he said. |
