Commence Bombing - Sean Penn

Commence Bombing - Sean Penn has arrived in Baghdad.

"By the invitation of the Institute for Public Accuracy, I have the privileged opportunity to pursue a deeper understanding of this frightening conflict," Penn said in a statement released in Washington and Baghdad on Friday. "I would hope that all Americans will embrace information available to them outside conventional channels.

Like Hollywood.

As a father, an actor, a filmmaker, and a patriot, my visit to Iraq is for me a natural extension of my obligation (at least attempt) to find my own voice on matters of conscience."

And that is the big obligation, isn't it? Finding one's voice?
