Let's give all Mothers all over the world - particularly Mothers of U.S. and allied troops, and especially all Iraqi Mothers - a great big Mothers Day present.

BRING THE TROOPS HOME FROM IRAQ!!!

We have all petitioned, sent letters and e-mails, demonstrated -- even and especially, people outside of the U.S. THANK YOU! And KEEP DOING IT!

However, that has proved to be NOT ENOUGH.

Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice, in a TV interview the other day, indicated that THE WAR COULD GO ON FOREVER; THE ILLEGAL AND IMMORAL OCCUPATION OF IRAQ, IS INTENDED TO LAST FOREVER. No matter HOW the mis-Adminstration hems and haws and dances around the subject, THAT IS WHAT THEY REALLY, IN THE END, MEAN -- even if they can't SAY that, directly.
The mis-Administration will actually, keep on EXTENDING, and EXTENDING, and EXTENDING troops' deployments -- for the foreseeable future, for our LIFETIMES if they steal another Election and get re-elected by fair means or foul!!!

Congress says they are doing their best! Congress was elected in 2006 with a CLEAR MANDATE TO STOP THE WAR. Evidently they can't or won't TRY hard enough; or their hands are tied. AND THIS COUNTRY IS NO LONGER A DEMOCRACY REFLECTING THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.

Shall we sit on our backsides? wait and "hope for the best"? Hope hope hope hope hope????? Shall we wait for the next election? and the next? and the next? and the......?

There are
TWO THINGS WE CAN ALL, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US, DO NOW THIS MOTHERS DAY TO BRING THE TROOPS HOME, HOME TO THEIR MOTHERS AND FAMILIES, HOME TO PEACE WHILE THEY ARE STILL ALIVE AND UN-MAIMED.

YES, WE CAN END THE WAR ON OUR TIMETABLE, NOT ON BUSH'S PHONEY "TIMETABLE"! SI SE PUEDES! YES WE CAN!!!!!

The two things are:
1] The troops must THEMSELVES REFUSE to fight in this war any longer. There have been NOTABLE INDIVIDUALS who have done this: to mention only ONE, Lt. Ehren Watada, who deserves all of our support for his trial and court-martial hearing in a few weeks.
But, that has not been enough. WHOLE UNITS must revolt, disobey direct orders, lay down their weapons, REFUSE TO DEPLOY TO IRAQ. There is NO glory, NO Honor for being DUPES of Media LYING! And we the Civilians, communities and friends and family members, MUST SHOW VERY AUDIBLY AND VISIBLY, OUR UNQUALIFIED SUPPORT FOR THEIR REFUSAL.

2] First that CRIMINAL MASTER-MIND, DICK CHENEY, MUST BE IMPEACHED: THEN BUSH MUST BE IMPEACHED ALSO. THAT will bring the War and Occupation to a screeching halt, if and when Nancy Pelosi, Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives and next in line, becomes THE FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. {Speaker Pelosi is not very big on Impeachment NOW; but she wouldn't turn down the Presidency if it was offered her!}

Below, there is a "DO-IT-YOURSELF" Impeachment Kit, for Americans.
GO, AMERICANS, GO!!! What have you to lose, "You have nothing to lose but your chains"!

What can a non-American citizen do? Well, plenty.
HELP US, PLEASE!

If there are American bases and Embassies in your country, PROTEST AT THEM. And ask that the American bases be CLOSED, THROWN OUT.
 As the People are protesting now in Vicenza, Italy. Did you know, that America has MORE FOREIGN BASES THAN FOREIGN EMBASSIES ABROAD??? Seven hundred and something. DISGUSTING! And, Americans are BUILDING SEVERAL PERMANENT BASES IN IRAQ. Gives the LIE, doesn't it, to "We are going to leave sometime.......... whenever........."!!!

If there are American bases in your country, and there probably are, TRY TO GET IN CONTACT WITH AMERICAN SOLDIERS WHEN THEY LEAVE THE BASE. Are there G.I. coffeeshops, or social events to which American troops would come? Can you arrange for any? LEAFLET, or put up POSTERS or GRAFFITI. {Legally, or ILLEGALLY, as I and my friends do here!} Talk face-to-face with the troops if you possibly can, or thru the Internet, in demos, broadcasts, etc. etc.

THERE IS ALREADY A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF RESISTANCE WITHIN THE AMERICAN ARMY, AS THERE WAS DURING THE VIET NAM WAR. I CAN PERSONALLY VOUCH FOR THAT {but I am not going to give anything away! But some of my sources are Public ones, such as War Cry newspaper [Grito de Guerra], Vietnam Veterans Against the War Anti-Imperialist [VVAWAI], and Iraq Veterans Against the War}. But there is a CURTAIN OF MILITARY CENSORSHIP that will have to be breached!

We, you and I, need to BUILD ON THE RESISTANCE THAT IS ALREADY THERE, AND ENCOURAGE IT, AND SUPPORT IT IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.

[Of course, the FAMILIES AND FRIENDS of the troops, are BEST placed to BREACH THAT MILITARY CENSORSHIP. So, if one is in a position to TALK TO FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS of the troops......]

[All of the above goes of course for British, Canadian, any other troops deployed to Iraq as well.]

THESE ARE ACTIONS THAT EVERY RECIPIENT OF THIS MOTHERS DAY MESSAGE, CAN START TO TAKE.
AND PASS ON, AND INFLUENCE OTHERS TO TAKE. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU. THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD ARE COUNTING ON YOU.
PLEASE!

I HAVE BEEN CALLED A TRAITOR, SUBVERSIVE, AND WORSE.
WELL, IN THE WORDS OF THAT GREAT AMERICAN PATRIOT, PATRICK HENRY:

"IF THIS BE TREASON,
MAKE THE MOST OF IT!"

Love & Peace & all that good stuff;
BMutiny you know what it means by now T

Friends,
There is a DIY Impeachment kit available at
www.impeachforpeace.com I've already sent 11 Memorials to my Rep. and 5 other Reps. This is a prescribed procedure in the House Rules. You can see the rule at the Website. Share this with everyone you know![From Robert K. -- thank you!]

Our troops, our boys and girls in IRAQ, have essentially been ABANDONED by this Administration. They are STUCK over there, the war in Iraq will NEVER end [Bush himself said so!], they will NEVER be brought back home by this Administration, NEVER. Got that? NEVER. The Iraq war did NOT bring Bush the "popularity" he thought a War President would get; so, Bush [and the Dems and Repugs in Congress, who are COWARDS!], have ABANDONED the troops over there, have LOST INTEREST, and think the U.S. public will LOSE INTEREST IN OUR TROOPS OVER THERE TOO.

Yes, on to Iraq, the next war! Nuke 'em! THAT will get the attention of the American public! FORGET our troops and the unpopular War and Occupation of Iraq! DON'T PUBLICIZE THE STATISTICS THAT U.S. TROOPS CONTINUE TO DIE EACH AND EVERY DAY IN IRAQ!

U.S. troops must first KNOW, must BE TOLD {by us! who else will do it?} that they are ABANDONED by the Bush Administration. Then, they might vote with their feet and decide to leave, en masse, on their own!

   
BUSH AND NAPOLEON ABANDONED THEIR TROOPS WHEN IT GOT TOUGH 

JUST LIKE NAPOLEON ABANDONED HIS ARMY IN RUSSIA, TO SUFFER AND DIE, WHILE HE SKEDADDLED TO FRANCE AND SAFETY.

ABANDONED, YOU GOT IT? ABANDONED. NO hope of victory, NO end. Just sit there and get shot at and DIE, one by one by one. Who cares anyway? for what great cause? one by one by one by one....... SEVERAL, more than one, EACH AND EVERY DAY.

The ONLY meaning the bloody Iraq War NOW has for Bush, is, it is making him unpopular. So -- the solution is, just FORGET it! Start a NEW war! with Nukes, not Troops!

AMERICAN BOYS AND GIRLS HAVE BEEN ABANDONED BY BUSH, AND BY THE COWARDS IN CONGRESS. THEY ARE ON THEIR OWN.

They might as well lay down their weapons and start walking away. The Iraqi Resistance has stated, it will NOT fire on them if they do that. Obviously, that would be greatly to the ADVANTAGE of the Iraqi Resistancence, to get rid of the Occupation with the least amount of bloodshed!

Why suffer and die and lose your arms and legs, or your MIND, for a "leader" who ABANDONS you??? WHY WHY WHY??????

VISUALIZE ALL TROOPS LAYING DOWN THEIR WEAPONS, REFUSING TO FIGHT ANY MORE, AND "VOTING WITH THEIR FEET". IT IS POSSIBLE. The Iraqi Resistance has stated, it WILL NOT FIRE on troops who do so. It would obviously be to the advantage of the Iraqi Resistance, to let the troops leave the country with the LEAST amount of trouble and bloodshed!

There is a Movement to visualize this at NOON each day, whichever Time Zone one is in.
Try it! It can't hurt! Visualization is known to be effective, i.e. in healing.
