-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 "Stuff Happens" - Rummy Comes to the NYC Stage Via NY Transfer News Collective * All the News that Doesn't Fit Prensa Latina, Havana Donald Rumsfeld Character in NY Play New York, Apr 18 (Prensa Latina) The much-vilified US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld will receive another punch, this one theatrical, when London�s "Stuff Happens" presents him on stage in New York next week as the instigator of the Iraq invasion. The piece, the breastle of which refers to Rumsfeld�s response when chaos reigned in Baghdad after Saddam Hussein�s fall, is by British David Hare, who calls it "a power allegory in the dramatic tradition of William Shakespeare." The play�s thesis is that Rumsfeld made the decision to invade Iraq much earlier than Washington announced it, and the determination was independent of any international diplomatic forces to avoid the conflict. Rumsfeld is portrayed in the play as arrogant and heartless, while Bush appears as an easily influenced person who nevertheless has the final word. hr-ccs-js * ================================================================ NY Transfer News Collective * A Service of Blythe Systems Since 1985 - Information for the Rest of Us ================================================================ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU-Linux) iD8DBQFERWEDHwEfpL2U00kRApGLAKC9hQ3kuHAx6XzkQ-w4lDxx60jvbQCeImp9 LDqvX2M95+S3Ue4eQK4x0SU= =gP2J -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
