+-+-Thank you for your response to my plea not to go to war.

Have you considered this: For twelve years Iraq has been bombed and starved economically. One million of its citizens have died from lack of access to medicine and clean water because of an embargo by US. Is our national security in jeopardy from a country whose military was destroyed in the Gulf War, and has had their remaining chemical and biological weapons eliminated by U.N.Inspectors ? Two former tops U.N. weapons inspectors and the current head have all stated unequivocally that Iraq does not poses a threat to anyone especially not us.

Finally do we have to accept the words of Bush and Co.,who in their past involvement with Iraq and Sadam did business and had no

objections when he used chemical weapons during the war with Iran. In fact he was an ally. When atrocities are condoned in the past because business was good what are these leaders profiting from now ? Just posing a question...that has me concerned.

I am against all mankind suffering and worried that terrorism is insidious and cannot be stopped by military means. We are just inciting more anger,hatred and in the end more terrorist suicides and our attempt to save our country. Ann Richards on Larry King last night said, we will hear nothing about education,medicare,social security,
budget deficits from this administration. Just WAR.
