An Open Letter to our Elected Officials and Community Members:To: This challenge is to any potential candidate for election who wants to get the support of the 'peace and justice' voters. This especially applies to the democratic candidates.
I
election, regardless of any "positions" that you may have adopted by that late date. Every day you wait is a betrayal to peace and justice, and a horrible tragedy to those who will die, get maimed, or traumatized by the reality of war. Now is the time to stand up against the U.S. occupation. And if you aren't already committed to the peace process and ending the war, how much longer will you wait? What are you waiting for? Meanwhile, people are dying. Sometimes there isn't a second chance.
US military bases in Iraq. And they would be willing to turn over the oil assets to the Iraqi people. In addition, the tortures and abuses at Guantanamo Bay, Abu Graibs prison, and elsewhere, would immediately cease. The candidate would not allow another needless death, and understand that there is not any "noble cause" in Iraq.Nor would they believe that to withdraw from this illegal war is a dishonor to the soldiers who have already died. It is hard to believe that those soldiers who have already made the ultimate sacrifice would want another of their brothers and sisters to die in vain for a lie. The truly anti-war candidate would be speaking out now, and not two years from now. Now is the time to publicly speak out and be counted. We are looking for leaders, not followers. We are looking for solutions, not political posturing. We are looking for a presidential candidate that can publicly state that this war, based on lies and misrepresentations, is a mistake. We have waited long enough. Not one more!
