Lieberman hides from CASMII

19-06-2007 09:10

Around 35 of us opponents of war on Iran (mobilized on two days notice with help from CASMII) were told Thursday afternoon at Senator Lieberman's office in Washington that we couldn't actually meet with him. The appointment Code Pink activists had secured earlier in the week, a day after the Senator said on national TV that Iran should be attacked militarily if it "doesn't play by the rule," was thus scrapped unilaterally. We were told by Lieberman's staff we were denied a meeting because they divined our intention was to stage a sit-in and hunger strike!

The media has to deal with these global voices now because they are the 'shot heard round the world.'"

16-06-2007 15:06

Some context that the MSM seems to have missed.
