Historian Howard Zinn, author of A People’s History of the United States, was interviewed by Riz Khan on Al Jazeera at the end of last month to discuss the current wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in his latest book, A Power Governments Cannot Oppress. Zinn opposes all war, and believes a revolution of the people must take place. He openly criticizes Israeli and American terrorism which hopes to oppress the will of the people through indiscriminate violence.
“We live in a beautiful country. But people who have no respect for human life, freedom, or justice have taken it over. It is now up to all of us to take it back.” - Zinn

Professor calls attention on the problems we have all seen to rest of the world. What can we do? Protest? We need to give Congress one mighty High Colonic, that might get their attention. The Republicans seem to be in lock step with Bush, why are not the people that have those Republicans in Congress, putting pressure on them? As usual, more questions than answers.
I can answer my own question, apathy or should we call it American idol.

Why is there an ad for that neo-con monster John McCain on this site?
Why does Howard Zinn still believe in Arab “terrorists?” Why doesn’t he acknowledge that on many occasions US Special Ops, British SAS, and Israeli Intel dress as Arabs and commit frame-ups and false-flags?
Why is this topic totally poisoned with disinfo and limited by gate-keeping?

Way to go Mr. Zinn keep speaking truth it’s so rare in america. We need to be as bold as he expresses by uniting with one voice against those who do not want to recognize the will of the people.
