Granted, if you read my blog (and subsequent comments by my “readers”), you’ll have seen these links already. I give thanks to my friend Transforming for reading and providing these links. But, just in case, you need some added impetus to read (or just want my “approval” — HAH!), here are the links to the 2-part interview that Mother Jones Magazine conducted with Chalmers Johnson. Read, think, and enjoy.
Peace.

To those of you who don’t follow international news beyond the general headlines, there has been an ongoing series of events concerning the valiant and courageous organization Christian Peacemaker Teams. Back in November, 4 members of this group (1 American, 1 Britons, and 2 Canadians) were abducted by insurgents. Since then, there have been a great many people around the world petitioning for their release, including several secular and religious Iraqi groups. The first 5 links represent a loose timeline of the events, from a BBC Timeline, to the news of Tom Fox’s death, to the release of the other 3 men. The concluding link is an article from Mother Jones Magazine discussing how most peace groups in the West have much to learn from the Christian Peacemaker Teams.
Peace.
