A Worthy Petition

Oliver Kamm reports an online petition dedicated to protecting Iraq's academics from murderous attack.

Strange, I thought. The average head-chopper's not going to take much notice of a petition.

Silly me. The petition's aimed at the real murderers - the Americans !

The good news is multiple voting seems to be allowed. I wonder how long my contributions (between 4410 and 4420) will last. See if you can spot them.


I see that a Dr Al-Ali Nadje of Exeter University is a signatory. I wonder if, like his Exeter colleague Kamil Mahdi, he thinks we're just not taking enough casualties ?

    4547 is still up, but you need to read it backwards.
