Massive Protests Against USA In IraqHundreds of thousands of people gathered in the Iraqi city of Najaf today to demand that the United States take its soldiers and leave Iraq. They chanted “No, no, to the occupation, no, no to America.” They painted slogans like “May America fall” and “Bush is a dog” on the ground. Who are these Iraqis protesting against the American occupation? They’re Shia. They’re the group that the American invasion and occupation put into power. They’re the group that will continue to control Iraq if George W. Bush’s war succeeds. So, America, this is what your soldiers are fighting for: To create a government supported by people who hate America. Today’s huge anti-American protests make it plain to any rational person that the American occupation of Iraq cannot succeed in creating a nation that will be reliably pro-American. The longer the occupation of Iraq goes on, the more Iraqis, Sunni and Shia, despise the United States. If you want that to continue, then vote for a right wing, pro-war candidate in the 2008 presidential election. If you want the occupation to end, vote for a progressive. |
