Anti-war demonstrations around the globe and here in Wisconsin continue as this week marks the fourth anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq. Peter Donalds’ guests make the case for peace.

Guests:
Paul Kawicka, program and political director, National Peace Action www.peace-action.org. Mr Kawicka returned last week from Iran where he visited as a delegate with Fellowship of Reconciliation www.forusa.org
George Martin, program director, Peace Action Wisconsin www.peaceactionwi.org



Each day, 30,000 children die of starvation and three billion people, half the world's population, live on less than two dollars a day. Peter Donalds’ guest says despite 2.3 trillion in aid from the West, little has changed in world poverty.

Guest:
William Easterly, professor of economics at New York University. Former senior economist, World Bank. Author, “The White Man's Burden: Why the West's Efforts to Aid the Rest Have Done So Much Ill and So Little Good.”
