Messaggio di Mumia per il 20 marzo

Mumia's message for March 20, 2004:
"End Occupations!"
The United States and its client state of Israel are using military force
and aggression to dominate, occupy, and control subject peoples, both on the
pretext of fighting terrorism while imposing a regime of state terror.
The US used the lie of weapons of mass destruction to unleash a war against
a sovereign nation and now occupies a nation torn by conflict with a very
real threat of civil war. Americans should reject the policy of preemption
which really means 'might makes right'.
If we have learned anything from history, it is that the strong are not
strong for long; that empires rise and empires fall; that fates of nations
are written in how they use their powers. The same class, and some cases the
very same people who supported the Iraqi regime militarily, damned them a
decade later for using the very weapons they provided them with.
They used the resolutions of the U.N. to justify a mindless cruel war of
regional conquest. The people were right in spring 2003 when they demanded
"no war for oil." They are right now. Let the world hear your demand, "End
the Occupation. End the Occupation!"
The billions used to enrich Halliburton and Bechtel for a false defense
could best be used to rebuild schools, to provide low income housing, to
hire the jobless. To use the phrase of the Global Women's Strike, "Invest in
caring, not killing."
I thank you all and the A.N.S.W.E.R. coalition. End the Occupation!
