Tonight 8-10 PM on WEFT 90.1 FM

      "What I Heard About Iraq"
    ------------------------------
    Show: Digital Citizen
    Date: Wednesday, April 5, 2006
    Time: 8-10 PM
    ------------------------------

Today -- although a substantial majority of Americans now
oppose the war in Iraq -- agents of the the U.S. government
are continuing to kill men, women and children in our name
throughout the Middle East. They are torturing and imprisoning
people around the world, in secret CIA jails and military
concentration camps in Cuba, Afghanistan and elsewhere (put
there precisely to be out of reach of U.S. courts).  And our
congress and courts acquiesce.

Tonight on WEFT, the program "Digital Citizen" will present
some of what we've heard about Iraq -- selections from a
brilliant compilation of things actually said by our political
leaders and others as brought together by the poet Eliot
Weinberger. His book *What I Heard About Iraq* is published by
Verso.  Its editor writes,

    "The Iraq war has unleashed such a torrent of opinion
    ... polemic, neo-con apologia, world-weary cynicism ...
    [that] the important truths are being lost.
    [In] an extraordinary montage of facts, sound-bites
    and testimonies, [Weinberger] assembles ...
    a blackly comic narrative that permits
    the voices of the war to speak ...
    and allows the protagonists to
    damn themselves in their own words."

DR. NO, Jeff Nicholson-Owens, founder and host of Digital
Citizen, is away on hiatus, so once again tonight's show will
be presented by your oxymoronic guest hosts, the AWARE Radio
Players -- Mort Brussel, Carl Estabrook and Linda Evans.
     
As the Doctor says, "Thank you so much for listening to the
show.  Your attention makes doing the show worthwhile."

  And remember, at two minutes and three seconds after one
  this morning, the time and date were 01:02:03 04/05/06.
  (If you missed it, it will happen again in a hundred years.)
