Iraq is going through a living hell right now – little electricity, little clean water and lots of killing on a daily basis. This hell was caused by U.S. government policy, through its invading military troops and civilian contractors. The hell continues to this day, still caused in part by our policies and our military and civilian presence in Iraq.

This war of occupation cannot be “won.” Few Iraqis want U.S. troops in their country. We are only digging a deeper and deeper hole for the Iraqis the longer we stay. Things cannot get worse there if the U.S. leaves. The only compassionate and humanitarian thing to do is to remove all U.S. people, military and civilian, from the country.

It is time for all caring people in this country to demand our immediate and complete exit. Let us stop destroying Iraq.
