Indeed, I do speak for peace.

You see, Albert, I just don't want our nation going to war for reasons that are other than truthful. The fact of the matter is those chemicals were used in warlike conditions, and it was the Kurds caught in between warring Iraqis and warring Iranians who suffered.

Much like Bush has told us that "he kicked the weapons inspectors out," he's told us "he's gassed his own people," there is more to the story other than the president's statements. Bush's sensationalism has been geared to whip up a hysteria among the American public, as evidenced by the below polling:

So, Albert, we can both agree that Saddam Hussein is a tryant dictator, much like those outlined below:

My simple position is that if our nation is to wage war against another nation that this war be securely rooted in self-defense, that all other remedies have been exhausted and in the proof that waging the war itself will not be worse than not waging the war. This test is not proven and Bush has made no moral, political or legal justification for this war.
