Until recently, the docility of Congress toward Pentagon planning forestalled any real review of the hush-hush CBW program with its secret appropriations. Now, prompted by press reports and rumors, emboldened by the general concern over U.S. military policy, congressional investigators are demanding answers from...
...against hypocrisy and inhumanity as your father has spoken out against stupidity and inefficiency. We should like a Prince who can tell our elders that the long-haired layabouts who haunt their suburban nightmares are not necessarily destructive ogres, but sometimes human beings who are more concerned with men than with money...
