Mr Moore is very easy to contact/find.
In his film michael moore refers to "brits" and alleges that "brits" are violent & once conquered a lot of the world by use of violence!
i am sure that there are many on indymedia who will condemn this savage attack on our peace loving british brothers & sisters. no doubt the sp will picket showings of the film.
i his book "stupid whitemen", moore not only uses the dread word "btits", he also writes:
"catholics in nortern ireland are second-class citizens whose rights are continually violated, who are kept on the lowest tier economically, and who live under the thumb of an occupation force of british soldiers."
"a few bombings in london and suddenly the government is allowed all sort of secret powers to do what it weants to combat "terrorism". no one has the time to ask about the terrorism ionstigated by the government or how that may be a factor in why there is so much death and destruction happening."
"how many irish were falsely arrested and convicted? how many irish were assassinated by operatives of the british government? We may never know. this is not what defines a free and open society."
such horrors! obviously this book must be stopped! can we expect the sp to picket the rearranged talk?
oh the book is so funny & so political.
gore vidal may finally plan his retirement, he has a worthy successor in moore.
