(SOAPBOX #62) - Cindy brings us a most illuminating Requiem for the antiwar movement. Also, this Sunday (July 11th) she features Edward L. Peck, a one-time Deputy Director of Covert Intelligence Programs and retired career diplomat who served thirty-two-years in the U.S. Foreign Service, from 1956 until 1989. He's had a few "bumpy rides" - for example when he objected to invading Iraq prior to our March 2003 invasion, asking "when you take out Saddam Hussein, what happens after that? We don't have a clue. Nobody knows, but it's probably going to be bad." Not exactly fitting my pre-existing image of a career Foreign Service diplomat, he seems to be a real person - with a real heart! (So who screwed up by letting someone with a working conscience into our Foreign Service? How un-American!) He certainly offers a unique perspective on our international affairs. Most recently, he was in the Gaza Freedom Flotilla and told of it here. They have much to talk about; it's all good listening!
