Iraq's leader and oil magnate, Hussein, with heirs.
MURDER is the correct word
This page appears here to let others in the world know that many persons in the United States are appalled by our government's official barbarism*, by the uncritical response of our nation's media, and by the acquiescence of a majority of U.S. citizens. Where are the moral voices protesting such inhumanity? Why do we hear nothing from the so-called "Christian" churches and their leadership? Please, tell me again why we are in their country in the first place. Do our political leaders think they are exempt from the consequences of their actions? They have sons and grandsons too. Horrors beget horrors.
U.S. Media critique
May it please your honors, the privilege of opening the first trial in history for crimes against the peace of the world imposes a grave responsibility. The wrongs which we seek to condemn and punish have been so calculated, so malignant and so devastating, that civilization cannot tolerate their being ignored because it cannot survive their being repeated. That four great nations, flushed with victory and stung with injury, stay the hand of vengeance and voluntarily submit their captive enemies to the judgment of the law is one of the most significant tributes that power ever has paid to Reason.
OPENING STATEMENT AT NUREMBERG BY THE CHIEF U. S. PROSECUTOR, JUSTICE ROBERT H. JACKSON, 1945
* For example, The U.S.A. C.I.A.'s PHOENIX ASSASSINATION PROGRAM, murdered upwards of 60,000 men, women and children who were considered to be part of Vietnam citizens' opposition to the invasion and occupation of their country by U.S. government armed personnel. The USA lost an average of 150 men a week for 7 years before popular domestic rebellion forced the government to alter its policy and shut off profits siphoned through the Pentagon to "defense contractors" and reduce incentives for career advancement within its military complex.
