War in Iraq Forum

The forum tonight was excellent! I was quite surprised that Kieth Schimko took such an avid and open anti-war position. Kudos to him(he is cute and gay;-) The icing on the cake was that I got to ask the last question...and I certainly did ask George Horowitz if he felt that raising a national income justified genocide.

Not only did you get to give the last question, but it was fabulous...well done! I did think that Shimko did some of the work of pointing out the weaknesses of Horowitz's arguments. Horowitz is such a dinosaur...I didn't know there were people around who still said things like that. He made me giggle! Anyways, great that Shimko came out against the war (he can be a role model for the neocons), but my kudos go to Targ and Afary. Wow! I knew Harry would be great, but I'd never heard Afary speak before. Fiery!

Thank you! I definitely learned a lot from Janet Afari and glad to hear her speak! Yes, I think Schimko did a lot in his presenation and responses.
