What Iraq needs right now is a new Mahatma Gandhi, a mindful, strategically intelligent, and relentlessly nonviolent spiritual leader, widely respected by all religious factions and press-savvy, who could lead Iraqi farmers in a mass Satyagraha campaign of (1) refusing to buy Monsanto seed or any other American-made products they can do without; (2) stockpiling, exchanging, and planting their own seeds in mass violation of these new Monsanto-sponsored regulations enacted by Paul Bremer, and (3) supporting each other in the effort to build a local, sustainable, diversified, exchange-based agricultural economy, independent of the Glomart system altogether. Tall order to be sure!
