Quote De Jour

"We have no honorable intentions in Vietnam. Our minimal expectation is to occupy it as an American colony and maintain social stability for our investments. This tells why American helicopters are being used against guerrillas in Colombia and Peru. Increasingly the role our nation has taken is the role of those who refuse to give up the privileges and pleasures that come from the immense profits of overseas investment." --Martin Luther King, Jr. ["A Time to Break the Silence"speech given at Riverside Church New York City April 4, 1967]
