Fasting and Praying for Peace
"Are we who want the killing to stop as committed to peace as those who are committed to war?" asks Ted Glick. "The war machine will certainly commit the lives of our children and Iraqi children. But will we commit our own lives? Would we exchange our lives for those of the soldiers being shipped out? Would we risk our lives so Iraqi children could live? That is why I am beginning this hunger strike on our national holiday: to stop an insane war and bring the troops home, and also to keep my country from going where we seem to be heading."
