VOICES OF THE PEOPLE OF IRAQ DO YOU WANT TO ADD A FEW MILLION MORE IN IRAN?

Here is a novel ideam instead of almost zero diplomacy make friends with Iran.  Hold a summit, apologise for past interference with Mossedeq and the Shah, seek close ties and cooperation in Iraq.  Instead of all the demonisation, insults, sanctions and bluster treat the Iranians with respect and create trust not enmity. With Iran as ally in Iraq it could be possible also to try the same approach even with Syria.  These countries feel threatened by all the belligerence, and waving weapons at them does not help the cause of peace. One talks to one's enemies to achieve peace. It i no one's interest to have continual war in the region, but current policies simply fan the flames of conflagration and the more the flames grow the more the US, France and others turn on the wind machines.

Don't rob the planet with the maufacture of arms. If you want to defeat terrorism give young people hope. Instead of guns build new hospitals and schools both in the US and Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq.

SAY NO TO BOMBING IRAN

During the Nuremberg tribunal in the aftermath of World War II, the chief American prosecutor, Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson, stated, “To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole.”

in this article Lincoln:

President Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address, delivered in the middle of a horrific civil war which makes all of the conflict America finds itself in today pale in comparison:

“Both [North and South] read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each invokes His aid against the other. … The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes. … [T]hat He gives to both North and South this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always ascribe to Him?”

Great article about threat to Iran

The plan to nuke/attack Iran is brilliant is it not? It will opens up a third front when the other two wars are failing miserably. It will lead inexorably to a catastrophic explosion of violence and general conflagration in the Middle East.  It will probably lead to a compete freeze on oil exports and a depression in the US.
It will legitimise the use of Nuclear weapons against the US by its enemies. It will confirm all the worst opinions other nations have of the US.
It will lead to a complete breakdown of the NPT and trigger off a worsening global arms race and cold war. Currently the US is in breach of the NPT see 'People Against the Bomb' on Google Video, and  the report on weapons of mass destruction: http://www.wmdcommission.org/
It will be the third time the US has dropped WMD making it the only nation to commit this horrific crime thrice.
Iran has declared it want peace.
These threats only make their need to manufacture nuclear weapons more likely. The antiwar movement must unite at www.peacesource.net
Is this administration totally brainless?
US voters 66% of whom do not want WMD should demand that their Presidential candidates demand 'No First use' and make the NPT a major issue.  Nuclear Winter is not the answer to global warming.

BUILDING A CASE AGAINST IRAN

www.americanprogress.org/

Subscribe to americanprogress and see Andrew Grotto, "Building a Case Against Iran," CAP Article, September 28, 2007and Boston Globe- Joseph Cirincione discusses criticism being levied at the IAEA, suggesting that those criticizing the IAEA "should take a deep, hard look at their own role and record for the war in Iraq...We have an American government seemingly itching to go to war, and we find that those who are proposing negotiations and inspections instead of war are themselves coming under attack."

Johann Hari: President Giuliani? He'd be worse than Bush
On the basis of myths, the former New York mayor may be on the brink of taking the White House  01 October 2007.  This is extremely serious.  Guiliani is threatening to destroy the world with a nuclear holocaust.
Bolton wants to bomb!

What does he think are the consequences of such aggression?

The warmongers seems to have no concern for the endgame. 

This is the rationality a serial killer.  Is this the script for a new movie: 'Carry on Bombing'?

Demonisation and the pathologising and dehumanisation of the other is the necessary precursor for war and genocide. This is what Bush Cheney and the Neocons are doing now even using the same lies they used for Iraq.

No Legitimate Justification for War with Iran:

 
By Scott Ritter
 
The reality is that the United States continues to plan to initiate and sustain a military strike against Iran. The Executive Branch of the U.S. government has successfully manipulated the Congress of the United States to the point that, through two War Powers resolutions (one issued in September 2001, the other in October 2002), there no longer remain any Constitutional remedies to the problem of unprovoked unilateral military action by a Unitary Executive which increasingly positions itself to operate above the law and beyond legislative oversight.

http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2007/10/22/4736/God God is not on our side, or the side of any single nation or people. To believe such is the ultimate expression of national hubris. To invoke such, if one is a true believer, is to embrace sacrilege and heresy. This, of course, is an individual right, granted as an extension of religious freedom. But it is not a collective right, nor is it a right born of governance, especially in a land protected by the separation of church and state.
