John Pilger to Martha Gellhorn ‘What’s ‘Anti American’?’
Martha ‘I’ll tell you what Anti American is…’ She said ‘It’s what governments and their vested interests call those who honor America by objecting to war and the theft of resources and believing in all of humanity. There are millions of these anti-americans in the United States, they are ordinary people who belong to no elite and who judge their government in moral terms though they would call it common decency, they are not vain, they are the people with a wakeful conscience the best of America’s citizens. Sure they disappear from view now and then but they are like seeds beneath the snow. I would say they are truly exceptional…’
If you would turn your anger to action - do it without guns. People would be truly free if they stepped from their doorsteps into a garden of everything they need, all we need to do - is grow it... Planting seeds for freedom is not so literary
