Subject: NO MORE WAR
Date: Thu, 12 Dec 2002 18:08:49 -0500 (EST)
NO MORE WAR We want to be good citizens. We want to make an anti-war piece. We want to be effectual. We are frightened of this war and of this country. We are frightened by the madman at the top. We write NO MORE WAR at the beginning of the piece. We write it loud and clear. No one can mistake our message. We owe everything to Godard. We begin the piece. We will show horrors of war. We will show wounded and dying soldiers. We will show parts of bodies and we will speak with the mothers and fathers, sons and daughters, of soldiers. We will show the nightmare of wounded cities. We will show bombed-out hospitals and schools. We will show dolls and stuffed animals and dead children in the ruins. This is not enough. We will show Auschwitz. We will not show Auschwitz; Auschwitz is a call to war. We will show nuclear explosions and napalm. We will show dying animals. We will write THIS IS THE EFFECT OF WAR. This is not enough. We show more mutilated bodies. We show more dead soldiers, dead men, dead women, dead children. We write THIS IS ALSO THE EFFECT OF WAR. We show the rites and mourning of survivors. We show starving families and empty landscapes and destroyed villages. We write AND THIS. We write AND THIS AND THIS. This is not enough. Nothing is enough. We will make our piece and we will show it. It is never enough. We write IT IS NEVER ENOUGH. SUICIDE SQUAD We are patriot suicide squad.
