‘It’s just wrong what we’re…

‘It’s just wrong what we’re doing’



In an exclusive interview, repentant Vietnam War architect Robert McNamara breaks his silence on Iraq: The United States, he says, is making the same mistakes all over again.


He decided to break his silence on Iraq when I called him up the other day at his Washington office. I told him that his carefully enumerated lists of historic lessons from Vietnam were in danger of being ignored. He agreed, and told me that he was deeply frustrated to see history repeating itself.


“We’re misusing our influence,” he said in a staccato voice that had lost none of its rapid-fire engagement. “It’s just wrong what we’re doing. It’s morally wrong, it’s politically wrong, it’s economically wrong.”

Help free the Cuban Five!

Help free the Cuban Five!



The National Committee to Free the Cuban Five is launching a campaign to place a full-page ad in the New York Times. There is no more urgent time than now to do your part in their struggle for freedom.  


Please help us break the media blockade that is keeping their struggle for freedom from being known to the people of the United States and around the world


Endorsers include Noam Chomsky, Cynthia McKinney, Bishop Thomas Gumbleton, and Ramsey Clark.



Who are the Five?


They are five Cubans who were trying to stop the ultra-right terrorist groups in Miami from carrying out violent actions against the people of Cuba.


And they were arrested and imprisoned for very long terms on bogus charges.
