"There is no flag large enough to
cover the shame of killing innocent people."
Howard Zinn
"Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience.
Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed
the dictates of the leaders of their government
and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this
obedience. . . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the
world in the face of poverty and
starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty"
Howard Zinn
"I was a bombadier in WW 2. When you are up 30,000 feet you do not hear
the screams or smell the blood or see those without limbs or eyes. It
was not til I read Hersey's Hiroshima that I realized what bomber
pilots do."
Howard Zinn
