"India is not your cat's name"

Ett fantastiskt roligt öppet brev, skrivet av en indisk grupp som heter Films for Peace:

Dear George ‘WMD’ Bush,

It is with both great happiness and grave apprehension that we the people of India await your arrival in our country.

Happiness because in the few hours you will be engaged in shaking hands with our country’s leaders your fingers will be – at least for a little while – away from the nuclear doomsday button. Happiness also in the hope that the grease you put on the palms of your political underlings here will make the many triggers all of you control that much more slippery.

There is a lot of apprehension too as your visit could become the latest source of pollution in our ancient land already poisoned over the years by your country’s various multinationals- from Union Carbide of Bhopal gas notoriety to Monsanto of GM seeds infamy.

Läs hela! Notera särskilt skrivningarna om Iran. Det händer viktiga saker i tredje världen. Folken i periferin har under trycket från den amerikanska våldsmaskinen allt mer sammanbundna öden. Om de också kan pressa sina regeringar till denna insikt kommer USA-imperiets grundvalar att skaka än häftigare.
