Shock and Yawn?

It is public knowledge that the US plans to "shock and awe" the Iraqis during the first few days of war. This plan will likely kill thousands, perhaps millions, but, alarmingly, there is nary a peep of concern in the media. Because of this, Geov Parrish asks, "Are Americans -- politicians, media executives, and ordinary citizens -- so numb, or oblivious, or callous to the horrors of war that we cannot raise ourselves to be bothered by what would be, if it works as planned, one of the greatest massacres, one of the greatest war crimes, in the history of the world, committed in our name and with our money?"

Answer Geov with a resounding "no!" by signing up for and participating in this Wednesday's Virtual March On Washington. Do other stuff, too, like writing to your local paper, contacting your representatives, talking to people, etc. Be creative.
