Explaining his aggression, President Bush stated:
"...After the chaos and carnage of September the 11th,
it is not enough to serve our enemies with legal
papers. The terrorists and their supporters declared
war on the United States and war is what they got."
Forget law. No more legal papers, or rights. Forget
truth.
The claim that either Afghanistan, or Iraq
declared war on the U.S. is absurd. The U.S. chose to
attack both nations, from one end to the other,
violating their sovereignty and changing their
"regimes", summarily executing thousands of men, women
and children in the process. At least 40,000
defenseless people in Iraq have been killed by U.S.
violence since the latest aggression began in earnest
in March 2003 starting with its celebrated, high tech,
terrorist "Shock and Awe" and continuing until now with
25, or more, U.S. raids daily causing mounting deaths
and injuries.
All this death-dealing aggression has occurred during a
period, Mr. Bush boasts, of "over two years without an
attack on American soil".
The U.S. is guilty of pure
aggression, arbitrary repression and false portrayal of
the nature and purpose of its violence.
