Podcast: Blase Bonpane
Bob Morris @ Dec 18th 2005 10:36 - Category: Anti-war
Recorded at the ANSWER LA antiwar vigil last night (see below for more), Blase Bonpane has been organizing and working towards peace for decades. He says "the enemy is militarism," detailing how the endless wars and invasions of the US have destroyed the public sector of the United States.
He points out that since Korea, the United States has lost every war it has fought. Except for Grenada that is, a country smaller than the city of Santa Monica which has no army. The Pentagon did succeed in blowing up their mental hospital however…
The US needs better health care and schools, and to do that, we must "end the addiction to war."

Piss into this bottle, punk, then take the lie detector test. [...]
