Yankees go home!

I saw that spray-painted on a wall this afternoon, and it just got me thinking about the war here and how removed from it I am and how little I know about it. I am a long way from my Witness for Peace days when I could have told you a LOT about the armed conflict here. While I remain buried in work, I know I need to come out of my bubble of ignorance. I depend a lot on my old Witness for Peace and other human rights worker friends to help me have a little bit of a clue.

So for this post, I am cheating, and I am just posting a link to an article my friend Moira wrote. I came home and read it just to get a clue. You should read it too.
