Weapons of Mass Hypocrisy

By Staff Utne Magazine
Published on July 1, 2003

While U.S. military personnel searched for weapons of mass
destruction in Iraq, an international team of weapons inspectors
began touring the United States to draw attention to America?s
stockpile of WMDs. As Adbusters (March/April 2003)
reports, the Rooting Out Evil coalition
(www.rootingoutevil.org)
says the U.S. satisfies all of President Bush?s criteria for a
dangerous state: It has a stockpile of chemical, biological, and
nuclear weapons; it has refused to sign and honor international
treaties; it has ignored United Nations directives; and its leader
was not elected by popular vote. The campaign hopes to highlight
the hypocrisy of the Bush administration by confronting U.S.
weapons manufacturers in the months ahead.
