Roundup of the first protests in Arab and Moslem countries as the war began (Washington Post, 3/20/03)
Mikhail Gorbachev condemns the war (Daily Yomiuri, 3/20/03):
It seems that the United States considers the world is its own province. But that is nothing but an illusion. I doubt the leadership of the United States. True leadership is far away from today's action. I say the United States would be exercising leadership if it announced ratification of Kyoto Protocol or the abolition of its nuclear weapons. . . .
However, I believe many American people are on our side. I believe they also want a different world, where problems are solved through a democratic process, not by force.
