1. - the virtually irrefutable evidence now revealed of the liquidate of at least 24 men, women and children by US troops at Haditha, Iraq last November. My Lai all over again, with the same consequences.

2. - the stoning of US troops today in Kabul, Afghanistan.
This against a backdrop every day of plantings, civilian rests and foreign troop rests.
We told them not to go in. Now they don't know how to get out.
I'll tell them how. Just say you're leaving, and get the hell out of there. Nothing worse can happen than is happening now - not in the long run anyway.
Nothing.
No, it isn't going to happen. George Bush can't lose face, even though he's dead in the water. Ditto for Blair. They still believe they can retrieve the situation. So I hear the argument that if there's a civil war in Iraq, a lot of people will die. Or that the Taliban will return to Afghanistan if they leave. Guess what? So many people have died already, nothing worse can happen than is happening right now. On the contrary, it is more than likely that most of the killing will stop far sooner than it will with foreign troops there. Not only that - there is *nothing* they can do to prevent what will happen, any more than they could hold back the tide of nationalism in Vietnam. They can only make it worse for everyone by staying.

Get out now. Save the lives of good servicemen and women who don't deserve to be thrown into these filthy wars. They are unwinnable under *any* circumstances by foreign troops.
Deal with it, if you've got the guts. it's going to take a lot more courage to walk out than to stay.
