Hello. My name is Konstantin Wecker. Would you please stop killing your people with nerve gas, quit murdering persons voicing their own opinion alongside their families, build hospitals and schools instead of palaces and start singing with me, so that peace will light your hearts.

Kunststuecke. TV discussion like many these days. And why i rather advocate the worst form of social intercourse, war, led by the worst american administration since McCarthy, than peace that isn't any at all.

People fleeing the country die because it's too cold to survive in the border region, people staying die because the neighbor didn't like them and, as a diligent member of the Bath party, informed the intelligence that they where about to assasinate a leader, which isn't even true, but who cares. People suffer from a despotic regime, aid fails because the current system enables the elites of the country to prefer buying a new Louis Vuitton bag for their wifes, if they are lucky, instead of food and medication that would save lives.

Yes, i'm also glad that americans annihilated (x) the Nazi regime, and if someone complains (x) that the bomb raids against germany in the end of World War II where cruel and horrifing doesn't understand that that's the way war is, and total war even lacks that tiny spark of rationality. Hardly any heros, no triumph, not even in iraq.

Respecting the sovereignty of a state is a basic principle of the United Nations and/or untouchable? If there is any collective international responsibility (x) towards the iraqi people, it's to stop torture, murder and suppression. Respect people and let them decide for themselves? They can't. Some would take the risk, some are quite happy because they profit from the current system and some don't care, most are tired after 30 years. Europeans, especially germans and austrians, know pretty good how this works, even after 3 years. That's what the majority of people, who spent more than a few days tour courtesy of the Ministry of Information in the region, say.

In the meantime the next regime tries to prevent war with an idea that contradicts the necessary foundation of democratic society and stalls important recent developments.

Raiding a bank or any other place, taking hostages and killing in the western world has two possible outcomes. Saddam won't surrender.

We would have global legislative, a bit of global judicative and 19th century armies are definitely not a suitable executive for the 21st century. Oh what a pity, nobody mighty is interested, neither east nor west.

(x) indicates a link to resources in german.

Im Zuge dessen, ein wenig pathetisch, und doch sa� ich 10 Minuten vor diesem Nachruf: Am 8. November 1939 fehlten 13 Minuten. Anstelle des Diktators starben unschuldige Menschen. Am 8. November 1939 fehlten ihm drei�ig Meter bis zum rettenden Boden der Schweiz. Im April 1945 fehlten ihm drei Wochen bis zur Befreiung des KZ Dachau durch Truppen der USA. WIEVIEL LEID WÄRE DER WELT ERSPART GEBLIEBEN, WENN SEIN ATTENTAT GELUNGEN WÄRE? Ausserdem:
