In speech and song, we celebrate "chickenhawks" -- non-veterans who courageously risk OTHER people's lives in war. Such as almost everybody who planned the Iraq war. Commentary, 2 songs on chickenhawks, a fine essay on Bush, Blair, & Brown by Robert Fisk, and a brief talk by John Pilger on the greatest chickenhawk of all.
Produced at WWUH-FM, "Public Alternative Radio," at the University of Hartford. Feedback to kdowst@hotmail.com. Pilger recording courtesy of democracynow.org.
