Reply #5: Hey, "OV" many of us here on this site protested in the Streets to stop [View All]

the Iraq Invasion...we signed and sent thousands of petitions to the UN and sent E-Mails to the French Ambassador pleading with him to stop it.

Way back then when America was still the country that many of us grew up in...we believed we had a RIGHT TO PETITION as citizens....BUT...we invaded Iraq and look what's happened...what we told them would happen if we went in there and invaded.

I can't do anything about this but give your cautions some posting time here on DU...I and others here tried to stop the "Madness" of this rogue Elephant...but it's beyond our power.

Anyway...I hope someone will listen to our pleas once again. I think it's out of the "common peoples hands" unless (as you are so alarmed about) the Arab countries see citizens rise up!... and who wants to see WWIII? Certainly none of us here, if there is a way to have Peace through Diplomacy? But, with Bush at the "Ranch" and Tony in the "Bahamas" then it seems the two leaders who should be "Peacemaking" are on Holiday while Lebanon burns and Israel waits for someone to come in and stop them. :shrug:

We are doing the best we can here on this website and others to make changes....what else can we do?
