Destroying Iraq Isn't Enough for Bush
An Immoral and Illegal War

Rep. CYNTHIA McKINNEY:

Remarks at Chicago Anti-War Rally, March 19, 2005

Two years ago we gathered all across America to say no to war. We were joined by people all over the planet who know that there is an alternative to war. But war is about the only option available when the real motive is to steal natural resources that belong to someone else.

The American people, and our children over there fighting, still haven't been told the real reason the US is at war with the Iraqi people. And against the people the US war machine has turned.Thousands of Iraqis, especially children, have been killed by our sanctions and our bombs.This is an immoral and illegal war and we need to bring our troops home now.
Instead, they lay the groundwork to expand the war and destabilize Iran, Lebanon, and Syria. Destroying Iraq isn't enough for them.Nor are the million men and women in our Armed Services enough for them.The George Bush war machine wants you, too. And your children.Everywhere you turn the Pentagon is denying it wants a draft while at the same time lamenting that recruitment is way down. Mercenaries will increasingly be used to fight their wars with your tax dollars.While reinstating the draft only feeds the war machine.

2. Damn, and they let her say this without cordoning her off in a Free

Speech Zone?? Although I am guessing Chimpy wasn't there to hear her, and he doesn't read the papers, so it might just as well be as though she hadn't said it at all.
Go, Cynthia! Keep telling it like it is.
