Op-ed: Walter Cronkite
In August 2004, Walter Cronkite wrote, "With this nation embroiled in what threatens to be an interminable 'War on Terrorism,' an idea put forward last year by Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich has, for me, considerable appeal. ... Now, to some, this is going to sound terribly naive, given the current state of things and the very real, hard-edged dangers that face us. But the naiveté just might lie on the other side with those who believe that military force and our policy of pre-emption are alone sufficient to make us safe. The fact is that there is nothing in this proposal that would weaken our military posture or our ability to strike terrorists and their havens and to do whatever is necessary for the defense of the United States." You can read his complete Op Ed here.
