"Who is in Charge?"

Edward Said


The Bush administration's relentless unilateral march

towards war is profoundly disturbing for many reasons,

but so far as American citizens are concerned the

whole grotesque show is a tremendous failure in

democracy. An immensely wealthy and powerful republic

has been hijacked by a small cabal of individuals, all

of them unelected and therefore unresponsive to public

pressure, and simply turned on its head.

An excerpt: 'I remember reading once that George III said, "I desire what
is right. Therefore anyone who disagrees with me is a traitor." And that was the exact attitude and attribute
of kingship that our founders wanted to get away from and sought to do so by the way they designed the
Constitution. And we're moving away from their concept back to that of George III. In fact, when I look at
George Bush -- would that be George IV or V?

Anarchists attended in Ankara a 1st of March anti-war demo
as "Black Block" in which there were people walking
within unions, political parties, NGOs and various
leftist groups. According to the mainstream media
60.000, according to the organizers 100.000
demostrated. The march started at 10:00 and 4 hours
later there were still groups who could not enter
Sihhiye Square.
