Dont Aid These Saddam Lovers

AFTER Dixie Chicks lead singer Natalie Maines told a London audience last week that she was "ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas," country stations from Kansas to Pennsylvania immediately dropped the band from their playlists. Maines soon apologized for her "disrespect."

But what about other appeasement-loving celebs?

If you'd prefer not to support the careers of stars who want to stop the liberation of Iraq from mass murderer Saddam Hussein and his rapist henchmen, PAGE SIX offers this quick reference list.

* "Mystic River," which comes out in the fall, boasts the mother of all appeasement casts, with Tim Robbins, Sean Penn and Laurence Fishburn.

* Samuel L. Jackson, another Hollywood drone who signed an anti-liberation letter to the Bush administration recently, is starring in "Basic," which opens next week.

* Susan Sarandon can currently be boycotted on the Sci-Fi Channel miniseries "Children of Dune," which began on Sunday. Another Sarandon project worth skipping is "The Nazi Officer's Wife," out in June.

* Those who oppose sadistic, Stalinist dictatorships won't want to show up at the Estess Arena in Atlantic City on April 25 to see Sheryl Crow's concert. You'll also want to avoid her show the next day at Earthfest in Boston.

* Another petition-signer, Alfre Woodard, is starring in "The Core," coming out next week.

* Fred Durst's band Limp Bizkit has a new album coming out and will be touring the U.S. this summer, but his fans probably don't even know what Iraq is. Meanwhile, alleged girlfriend beater and war opponent Jackson Browne is touring in the only place where he has any fans left - Germany.

* Janeanne Garofalo has high hopes that this summer's offering "Wonderland" will revive her career. But the producers of her last effort, "Manhood," which showed at Sundance in January, are apparently still searching for a distributor.

* The bus stop ads for Danny Glover's "Good Fences" just went up all over town, but there are certainly better ways to spend $10.

* You've probably already stopped watching NBC's "The West Wing" on Wednesdays, thanks to Martin Sheen. Now, you can skip the network's new political series "Mr. Sterling" on Fridays, since it stars the peacenik James Whitmore.

I find it hard to believe that people would stop watching the West Wing merely because of Martin Sheen's political views.

Saddam's right hand man Ramadan made that challenge several months ago. It was quite a riot, esp. after Bush turned it down quickly.

It wouldn't be fair though - Saddam and Taha have all that practice with up close and personal killing.

I've noticed a lot of people say that. And they all seem to be conservatives too.

Out of that list of stars and their projects, the only one I plan to see is Alfre Woodard in "The Core," and that was planned long before I knew (or cared about) her political stance regarding the war in Iraq.

I never bothered buying, listening or watching anyone else on that list. They're works never particularly interested me in the first place, and that still holds true regardless of their political stances.

In Frontline they showed this tape of when Saddam became president in 1979:

Saddam goes up front and begins to read out the names of "traitors", many of them his friends, all of them in the room. As he reads their names, the guys get up, some say A few words of protests, but eventually all are taken out of the room, never to be seen again. As the spectacle ends, we see Saddam in tears, and then he moves on.

This is a man who went to Baghdad age 10, carrying a gun. He also printed his uncle's work "Persians, Jews, and flies: Three things God should have never made"
