Peace is a naughty word. I am not sure what a "fellow traveler" is, 
but we have been solemnly assured anyone who wants OTHERS to be able 
to live in peace is one.

As for ourselves, everyone wants peace for himself or herself, 
including me. I thought it rather unsemly fot people in Ireland and 
elsewhere to be whooping and jumping for joy that innocent people 
were killed in New York. However the obsessive ranting about the WTC 
stands in uncanny relationship with the cavalier disregard for the 
well being of people who happen to live in oil producing regions at a 
time when the President is a self serving oil tycoon.
