The phrasing may not be the most radical, but maybe it gets the point
through. Can be used in whole or part for sending to
congress/senators/governments.
Please use your enormous responsibility and power to oppose any resolution
that would give this administration more war powers than it already has or
any authority to "pre-emptively" attack Iraq (or anywhere else). As Senator
Byrd so eloquently quoted Abraham Lincoln, the lodging of war powers in the
legislature is our defense against dictatorial, arbitrary, or deceptive use
of wars by tyrants claiming "to protect" their people. Keep the tyranny from
happening here. Keep America from entering a war that will further ruin her
economy.
Keep America from starting what is likely to become the nuclear holocaust she
fears. Keep America from inaugurating officially "pre-emptive" wars that
could become a model for other nuclear-armed nations such as Pakistan,
Israel, or China. Keep America from, contravening and destroying
international law, the United Nations, the cooperation needed to fight
terrorism.
Keep America from sending her young people to fight and die in a ghastly
immoral war in pursuit of oil and power. Keep America from entering on a "100
years' domination" policy that will, at best, drain our resources, and at
worst destroy the world we know.
Keep America from becoming a more hated name than Nazi Germany. Oppose the
Bush Administration's pretense of safeguarding us through insane war.
