	Bambooweb: Iraq disarmament crisis
		During most of 2002 and into 2003, the United States government has called for "regime change" in Iraq and threatened to use military force to overthrow the Iraqi government unless Iraq rids itself of all weapons of mass destruction and convinces the UN that it has done so.
		February 15, 2003, peace marches demonstrated the capacity of the peace movement to mobilize millions in the major cities of Europe, and hundreds of thousands in major cities of North America - which itself seems to be influencing the US position back towards the UN.
		In February 2003 the effort to draft an 18th resolution in the UN Security Council was underway.

	A.N.S.W.E.R. DENOUCES GOVERNMENT BAN ON FEBRUARY 15 PEACE MARCH IN NEW YORK
		A.N.S.W.E.R. denounces Federal Judge Barbara Jones's refusal to grant a march permit for the huge February 15 peace march in New York City as a dangerous and politically-motivated assault on the movement's most basic right to freedom of speech and assembly.

		For all of those who are planning to join the many feeder marches to the rally, we encourage everyone to stay strong and defy the city and federal government's attempts to discourage participation.

		As peace protestors prepare to take the streets worldwide today to denounce war, observers in New York agreed that Mr Blix's newest assessment appeared to have pushed the pendulum in the argument over Iraq marginally back in the direction of countries resisting the use of force.
		Although he said he rejoices "we live in a country where peaceful protest is a natural part of our democratic heritage," Blair went on to challenge their aims and acknowledge his position on war with Iraq was not the popular one.
		One soldier recalled the march: "Some were thrashed to death, some robbed of their kit and left to be tortured by the Arabs.

		It was the biggest public demonstration ever held in Britain, surpassing every one of the organisers' wildest expectations and Tony Blair's worst fears, and it will be remembered for the bleak bitterness of the day and the colourful warmth of feeling in the extraordinary crowds.
		There were not the detailed arguments we had had, even during the last peace march in November, over UN resolutions and future codicils.
		And this is, of course, a peaceful protest.' It remained so all day, despite the numbers; by five o'clock police were reporting only three arrests.

		The tough doves want to unify the civilized world against emerging dangers by demonstrating the value of what Blair has memorably called "a new doctrine of international community." The two camps are marching into battle together, but their own conflicts have just begun.
		For some reason, Brownstein didn't want to use the phrase "liberal internationalists," and I assume he had good reason, but there's got to be a better term than "tough doves." At any rate, since that's the camp I seem to be in, I'd sure like to see a better name for it.
