And why should a group targetting global economic inequality be mobilizing on the Iraq war? Yeah, there are of course connections between everything, but I see no reason for the Mobilization for Justice to alienate pro-war activists who are concerned about global economic inequality. The lives at stake in AIDS patents are far more than in the Iraq war, so I am all for keeping folks in the global justice camp.
