Was quite freaky, just as news filtered through work here today that the war had begun just a couple of hours ago, I had put the real thing cd on the inhouse stereo and just as the word came through I will leave it up to your imagination of which song was playing at the time........................

I suggest everyone say your prayers, especially for those who are now in immediate danger (on all sides of this stupid conflict), and I think it might be appropriate to listen to Red Sails in the Sunset or something else that brings that disgust of war to mind. 


Or, we can go with the obvious... 


US Forces give the nod, it's a setback for your country 
Bombs and trenches all in rows, bombs and threats still ask for more 
Divided world the CIA, who controls the issue 
You leave us with no time to talk, you can write your assessment 


Pray for me on the streets of DC as I do my best to make sure that the dead will be remembered and that my government does not go forward in my name.

PS If you are in DC, there will be a vigil tonight at Dupont Circle at 5 PM.
