Haditha Massacre

Read this article in the Washington Post about the Haditha massacre.

If it is even half true, I am ashamed to be a human being let alone an American.

Can you imagine killing innocent children? Think of them 8 in total - less than 15 years old - some as young as 1 year old. Think of them as if they were your own babies. Not someone somewhere far away from home. Think of them as if they were your own, because they were someone's!

God it is unbearable. I sincerely hope this story is not true, for humanities sake, but I fear it is true. And worse yet, reportedly, the Marines paid $1500 to $2500 per death of innocent Man, Woman, and Child. $2500 can't buy a good flat screen TV.

I Know George Bush didn't pull any triggers and I honestly believe that if he was there this never would have happened, but he still must bare some responsibility. I don't think he would kill an innocent chiled in cold blood, but his war certainly has.

When the truth is too hard to bare, too atrocious to believe, something has to be done about it. Please write to your congressman here and ask that they push to pull out of this war!!!!!!!!!!!!

Call your senator and tell hem to support Senate Joint resolution 36. This resolution is a plan to have our combat troops home by end of 2006. This is agressive, but without a plan it will not happen.

This site gets you the phone numbers for your senators. I just called my senators - you speak to an assistant - ask if the senator knows about the resolution (They should) and tell them to support it. It is that simple.

END THE WAR!
