Come September...

Speech of Arundhati Roy, author of "The God of Small Things"
Transcription here: http://www.nmazca.com/verba/roy.htm

"Donald Rumsfeld said that his mission in the War Against Terror was to persuade the world that Americans must be allowed to continue their way of life. When the maddened king stamps his foot, slaves tremble in their quarters. So, standing here today, it's hard for me to say this, but "The American Way of Life" is simply not sustainable. Because it doesn't acknowledge that there is a world beyond America."
