Impeach Cheney and Bush
RECEIVED Sat., Nov. 10, 2007
Dear Editor,
Thanks to the deceptive warmongering of Bush, Cheney, and a few other unfathomably arrogant men in Washington, more than 800,000 Iraqi people, including tens of thousands of little children, have been killed since the U.S. invasion/occupation began. In addition, more than 1 million Iraqis have been crippled. None of them posed a threat to the United States. None of them deserved be killed or crippled.
Every night, U.S. soldiers kick down an estimated 900 doors to Iraqi homes. Typically, the men are humiliated in front of their families, and if their reactions displease the young American soldiers, they are handcuffed and taken away like criminals. Most, if not all, of the Iraqi people have relatives and friends who have been killed, crippled, falsely imprisoned, or tortured by U.S. troops. The invasion and occupation has bred millions of potential terrorists, all of whom have many reasons to abhor U.S. officials.
As usual, those in Washington who are most responsible for all this needless suffering, cleverly cloak their barbaric actions with fair words. "Our young heroes in uniform" they tell us, "are defending America, fighting terrorists, and liberating the Iraqi people." Daily, more Americans are grasping the fact that the U.S. military does not exist to defend the American people, or to keep us free, but is rather used as a tool to gratify the insane greed and psychotic bloodlust of the American oligarchy.
Impeaching Cheney and Bush would be the wisest way to fight terrorism and a very practical way to prevent an invasion of Iran. It would send a message to the world that the USA is not a hopeless bully led by horribly corrupt men after all. Cheers to Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich for submitting House Resolution 333 toward that end. Everyone, please support justice via this impeachment resolution.
