Mark Dozois – consider this "chilly inhumanity"

Link to Eyewitness Account of Hiroshima Bombing

Mark Dozois writes in his Feb. 5 letter "Chilly Inhumanity" that he watched the video of the Jordanian pilot being burned alive. The human being "screaming in agony until death." This soul shaking experience converts him into a cheer leader for our state terrorism war against terror?

Let him reflect on these thoughts of an eye witness to "Hiroshima Burned to Ashes":  "Among the hundreds of injured persons of whom you cannot tell the difference between male and female there were children screaming IT"S HOT, IT'S HOT and infants crying over the bodies of their mothers who appeared already dead."

As a believer in socialist internationalism I say : NO SUPPORT FOR THE U.S. WAR ON TERROR. There is not much of a moral choice here: state terrorism vs. fanatical gang terrorism? It is know-nothing ignorance to support our imperialist wars- which are never waged for humanitarian reasons. There is an awesome amount of honest sociological research behind this pacifist point of view.
