Anti-Iraq war hunger strike
So a bunch of movie stars are participating in a “rolling” hunger strike to protest the war in Iraq. And here I thought that they had just invented a new diet. Hmmm…or maybe that’s what my kids do for dinner occasionally…I thought they were just bad eaters, but maybe it turns out they’re actually acting out a sophisticated consciousness-raising experiment. Who knew?

What the heck is the point of a “rolling” hunger strike? Big whoop.

I have never understood the purpose of a hunger strike. The only one in danger is the idiot not eating? You don’t want to eat? Fine die from starvation, see if we care!?

Maybe it’s the Hollywood version of the kid holding his breath when things don’t go his way…

A hunger strike resonates with the Christian ethic. It is one person sacrificing himself without violence for some good. I’m not for them, they foolishly endanger life, but there is a resonance. As for a rolling hunger strike…what is the point?
