Another bizarre factoid concerning the case of Susan Lindauer, who has been charged with being an Iraqi spy. It turns out that her name shows up on a public anti-war petition sponsored by the "Western Washington Fellowship of Reconciliation".
Lindauer signed the petition, and her name and address can be seen
here. the petition was for those who wanted to "stop the spread of the anti-terrorist war to Iraq". As they describe themselves,
[The] WWFOR seeks to replace violence, war, racism and economic injustice with nonviolence, equality, peace and justice. It links and strengthens FOR members and chapters throughout Western Washington in promoting activities consistent with the national FOR statement of purpose. WWFOR helps members and chapters accomplish together what we could not accomplish alone.
FOR is a faith-based, interfaith, pacifist organization which works on a variety of peace and justice issues.
It is affiliated with the
"National Fellowship of Reconciliation".and the
International Fellowhip of Reconciliation.
All of which raises the question: If someone is really involved in spying for Iraq, why in the world would they publicly sign a petition opposing the invasion of Iraq, knowing full well that signing such a petition would likely bring themselves to the attention of government authorities? More to the point, is Lindauer being targeted because of her opposition to the Iraq invasion?
