The time has come to face the truth in Iraq. This is not a war. The ongoing occupation of Iraq is the result of an illegal invasion of a sovereign country. The actions taken to date by American military forces are in violation of international law and the Geneva Convention against aggressive war. The invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq are crimes for which we, the American public, are ultimately responsible.
Our elected leaders took us into Iraq. Now we, the voters of this fair country, are responsible for changing the course. No one should argue that we have any right to continue criminal behavior. The responsible course is full and rapid withdrawal followed by economic support to foster rebuilding the country we have almost destroyed. To choose any other course but withdrawal is to continue criminal behavior. No person can continue to support such illegal activity and still claim to live as a moral and civil person.
