"If the "international community" is at all interested in combating environmental problems like global warming, it has to clamp down on the extravagant waste of fuel involved in trucking food, clothes and other goods thousands of miles before they reach the consumer."

"Private Eye", News Section, 17th November 2000.

"A powerful point in Clinton's address on the bombing of Iraq was that Hussein had actually used his WMD on Iran. This is perfectly true. It's also true that Hussein's most enthusiastic supporter for those attacks on Iran was the US government."
