americans, this is the beginning of the end. if what is planned goes ahead at najaf, your common soldier is no longer doing a job, he’s a war criminal. and all of you who support bush – or don’t fight his government tooth and nail – collaborate in the crime. in a democracy, citizens must bear responsibility for their government.

And the satellite news says the cease-fire is holding and George Bush says to the troops on Easter Sunday that, “I know what we’re doing in Iraq is right.” Shooting unarmed men in the back outside their family home is right?
