Facts and Feelings on War From My Copyright Hero
Siva, my copyright hero, has an incredibly personal, eloquent, and moving letter to those in support of war (and the Bush administration) by way of an unnamed friend. As always, Siva is more interested in facts and actions than supporting a knee-jerk, platform response. But he’s not afraid to communicate the anger and fear that this war and many of the US “anti-terrorist” actions have inspired. I’ve been on the fence about this war, as both sides of the debate have been so unreasoned, noisy, and pervasive that I couldn’t get the mental space to make a decision of my own. But this letter has finally tipped me into an anti-war camp inhabited, I believe, by the minority of people who thought long and hard about it.
