interview questions?

I would ask him to elucidate at some length the relationship between anti-globalism and anti-war'ism.

I would also raise the issue of the practical problem of convincing someone that the Iraq war is a bad idea on the basis of the premise that anything the U.S. might try to do of this sort would come to grief, anytime, anyplace.

As for invitees, you could try to work from that list of international relations academics who did the statement opposing the Bush doctrine (sic).

I'm doing a three-hour special this Thursday for the WBAI fundraiser, focusing on the Bush admin's lust to remake the Middle East. I've lined up interviews, which I'll record early in the week, with Tariq Ali and Noam Chomsky, and I think I've got Cynthia Enloe signed up too.

Two questions: 1) any suggestions on what I should ask them, and 2) any suggestions on another guest or two (another woman would be very nice).

Who to invite:

If your goal is only another woman: Madeline Albright is on record saying that the Bush approach is nuts. Doubt she would want to be on WBAI let alone in the same room with Chomsky and Ali, but it could be fun to watch if she were. (Doubt she knows who Cynthia Enloe is..)

Mary Lord, who works for one of the big Quaker organizations, either AFSC or FCNL. She would be good about the tasks of an anti-war movement and maybe some about wider picture, how to really improve people's lives.

What to ask gets to be a separate message.
