The People's Email Network Last 25 Messages Transmitted Log Go Back End The Wars In Afghanistan And Iraq ********** [130109:031114] W.B., Columbia, SC It's one thing to take out the founder and leader of al-Qaida through a special operations forces raid in Abbottabad, Pakistan, where practically no civilian casualties occurred. It's a completely other thing to use Hellfire missiles from drones that targets other suspected al-Qaida fighters that also kills huge swaths of innocent people in the process. End those damn drone strikes now! ********** [140717:071911] b.w., Sacramento, CA The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are nothing but state supported terrorism against the common people of these nations. The United States should not be the nazi germany of the 21st century. ********** [085654:070611] B.M., Albany, CA It's time to end our occupation in Afghanistan and Iraq. It is time to lead by example as a nation in the ways of peace, prosperity and civic duty. It is time to dismantle our war machine and utilize our resources to the betterment of our nation, humankind, and the planet. ********** [042322:062111] E.G., Portland, OR Michael Moore expressed it best when they shot Bin Laden, so disappointing. We must do better. ********** [080306:061711] P.S., Oregon, WI Patrick Richard Stoffel ********** [105414:061611] C.H., Gering, NE ...How can you stand next to the truth and not see it?... ...To stay the course or is it stray on course?... ...Fickle Americans too busy with their self-serving lives to care about what is being done in their name by reckless politicians(civilian leaders)who claim to have our best interests at heart...when will the outrage be worn like a badge of courage...that's all I ask, sheeple. Wake up and smell the concrete. ********** [105237:061611] C.H., Gering, NE ...How can you stand next to the truth and not see it?... ...To stay the course or is it stray on course?... ...Fickle Americans too busy with their self-serving lives to care about what is being done in their name by reckless politicians(civilian leaders)who claim to have our best interests at heart...when will the outrage be worn like a badge of courage...that's all I ask, sheeple. Wake up and smell the concrete. ********** [071243:061311] C.E., Ellsworth, MI What we are doing with foreign policy re: oil, religion, global food needs, warmongering is just not working. It's time to change the old paradigms: there is plenty of this beautiful earth for us all to share, love, enjoy, and prosper in. If we are trying to be the "best" "most powerful" country in the world, then why are we still operating like the big bad bully, forcing our financial desires down people's throats, ignoring their own right to struggle toward freedom, which is part of the history that we as US citizens proclaim? ********** [061139:061311] m.m., Lake Arrowhead, CA Our economy, our States and towns are in trouble. Can we afford any more wars? ********** [095213:060411] v.w., Joshua Tree, CA This country needs to rethink its priorities. The very citizens of this nation need to know that if they get sick they will not lose their home. The people need jobs that make sense to insall transportaton systems that do not use fossil fuels that cause global warming.This country needs to wake up. ********** [132903:060111] E.B., Seattle, WA The Shrub could have negotiated with the Taliban to have Osama bin Laden turned over to a neutral 3rd nation, but he refused because he woudn't have had an excuse to illegally invade Iraq and Afghanistan and waste $1.5 trillion! Get out now! ********** [000314:060111] J.M., Dallas, TX Our country has taken a step for the worse by not bringing Bin Laden to trail, nor did we bring Sadam Husein to trail in the United States. The CIA and NSA are hiding the truth in thesse actions we are all in peril God Bless Us and Save Us.! ********** [210526:053011] M.S., Minneapolis, MN Please end the bankruptcy of our country both morally and financially. Return government to the people and start listening us rather than bowing to the corporations. ********** [071235:052811] a.m., Orford, NH War is making us poor!!! ********** [044426:052811] S.S., Austin, TX Stop the sacrificing of our young lives and limbs. Please. ********** [212050:052611] R.J., Fayetteville, AR Bring our troops back from wasteland. Give these troops a job that DEFENDS our country for a change. Stop these illegal aliens and drug war on OUR southern border. Protect ME! Protect the precious few jobs within OUR border, from law breaking leaches. Start paying back the money "diverted" from MY Social Security. The Social Security system would be back in excellent health FOREVER! All WE are saying... is GIVE PEACE A CHANCE! ********** [225320:052511] D.M., Honolulu, HI Iraq was misguided and misled and Afghanistan is unattainable. Please stop the madness. ********** [150659:052411] K.D., Ashland, OR Bring our troops home. End all of the wars. Stop killing people. Stop meddling in other countries affairs. Spend OUR money on OUR country on OUR citizens. ********** [040700:052311] R.R., Greensboro, NC As Pres. Bush prematurely said, "Mission accomplished". If what we have been told is the truth, then the mission has been "accomplished". We have exacted our revenge on the person most blamed for the attack on 9/11. Now it's time to rebuild our nation and our nation's reputation. Let's bring our soldiers out of harms way and cease our occupation of sovereign countries. END THE WAR! Bring our troops home. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. ********** [164204:052211] w.d., New York, NY We need to get out of Afghanistan and Iraq, and stop meddling in other countries business. ********** [111203:052211] B.S., Chicago, IL Every life lost in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan has been a wasted life. Stop wasting the lives of our troops and the citizens of those countries. Get the US out immediately. ********** [101303:052211] G.Z., Brooklyn, MI We were lied into these wars and occupations of these middle eastern countries. Lives and trillions of dollars wasted and I should feel this rush of patriotism because we killed bin laden. What a sorry bunch we have become! I am against this war and the next one as well. ********** [091954:052211] J.M., Honolulu, HI Close all foreign bases. Bring all troops home now. Spend no more on violence than our scariest enemy. Use our resources to rebuild America. ********** [171051:052111] S.K., Salem, OR If we stop wasting all of our treasure on war, we would have no budget crisis. ********** [122923:052111] J.C., San Diego, CA I'm not a political person, but I am a taxpayer, and I do believe that the money spent on these wars would be better spent improving the economy. How can we pledge money to Egypt (another facet of our war on "terrorism") while millions in the U.S. remain unemployed and/or without proper health care? ********** Go Back
