Good Night and Thank You, Robin Cook

I was saddened to learn today of the death of Robin Cook - the Brit politician, not the American schlock medical drama writer - at the age of just 59.

Cook opposed the Iraq War and Britain's support of it, and he did so most passionately and eloquently. In my humble opinion, especially after the tragic bombings there one month ago, Great Britain needs more and not less Robin Cooks, able to see through the bullshit and propaganda.
