Thread Name: BS: Sean Penn's plea...
Subject: RE: BS: Sean Penn's plea...
This morning's Washington Post carries a story entitled "Actor on a Mission for Peace' relating a recent visit to Bagdad by Sean Penn. After his "Dear President" letter, Norman Solomaon of the Institute of Public Accuracy invited Mr. Penn to accompany him in a visit to Iraq.

Upon returning Penn said,"And if there's going to be blood on my hands (*as an American*), I'm not willing to have it be invisible. I wanted to come to Iraq and see I raqi faces- children, adults, diplomats, anybody that implies- and go home with some impressions that will not let me off the hook... It's not abstarct anymore."

Peace
