I Predicted The Istanbul Incident – What's Next?

Max Broker | Karma Banque | November 22, 2003

"This choke hold corpocracy are the environmental terrorists that have done huge damage and have, if you care to blow away the smoke and look at the true history of how 9/11 and Istanbul happened, are the ones who funded these events in the first place; driven by the 'animal instincts' of criminal-capitalism that is their ethos."

Va. Student Held for Months in Saudi Prison

Caryle Murphy and John Mintz | Washington Post | November 22, 2003

This website is a tribute to Why War?, one of the nation's first and most innovative post-9/11 student antiwar organizations. Born on October 22, 2001 at Swarthmore College, we were a handful of freshmen and sophmores who vocally opposed the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. And now, seven years later, we are retiring this website as we focus our efforts on new directions. We hope that it continues to serve future activists and we remain confident that humanity is on the verge birthing a better world.
