Preemptive Impeachment
Impeach Bush
Repeal the Patriot Act
Regime Change Begins at Home
January 15, 2003, Martin Luther King’s Birthday, peace activists will gather in Palo Alto at Lytton Plaza from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., to participate in Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom’s weekly “Listening for a Change” event, before marching, at 1:00 p.m. on Congresswoman Anna Eshoo’s office to make their voices heard.
A year ago, the activists marched on Senator Feinstein’s office and Congresswoman Eshoo’s office to demand a Congressional Investigation of 9-11. They raised a number of questions, including-
“What is the relationship between Bin Laden, his family and the Bush family and the Carlyle Group?
Why were no fighter planes dispatched to intercept the four hijacked planes on September 11th , in violation of standard procedures?
What is the U.S. relationship with Pakistan, and especially with its intelligence service, the ISI?
Why did the then director of the ISI have $100,000 transferred to the man whom the FBI now calls the ringleader of the Sept. 11th attacks, and why does the U.S. not pursue this question?
Last January, Bush and Cheney urged Daschle to ‘limit the inquiries of 9-11.’
“The heads of the Joint House Senate Intelligence Oversight Committee which conducted the inquiry, Senator Bob Graham and Rep. Porter Goss, deserved to be investigated for their September 11th 2001 breakfast meeting with the “Money Man” behind the attacks. Resisting a nationwide demand for an Independent Commission, Bush finally conceded to create a commission, with very limited parameters, to be overseen by the renowned Henry Kissinger, the war criminal extraordinaire, who has repeatedly lied to Congress, and has been working for oil companies very interested in the Caspian Sea Basin. His replacement, Thomas Kean, is hardly an improvement, with oil interests and financial ties to Bin Laden’s brother-in-law.
“Just because the Administration is lying to the American people, and trying to cover-up the truth about 9-11 doesn’t mean that they were guilty of the entire operation, but it does make them a prime suspect, especially when the attack is the “pretext” for aggressive wars over oil resources, the dismantling of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, democracy and dissent at home and abroad. It is also clear that a government that is terrorizing its own people and the world, behaving in a criminal manner, has lost its legitimacy (although with a stolen election there really wasn’t much legitimacy to begin with).” Says organizer, Carol Brouillet, member of Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom.
Law Professor Francis A. Boyle ( see Kellia Ramares excellent, inspiring article at http://www.rise4news.net ) has offered to draw up articles of impeachment for Bush for any congressman who chooses this non-violent route to prevent World War III and restore democracy. He was the one who drew up articles of impeachment for Representative Gonzalez in 1991 in an attempt to stop the first Gulf War.
“For over a year, ‘Listening for a Change’ has engaged in public dialogue, questioning the ‘War on Terrorism’ and the U.S.’s response to September 11th. We believe that we represent the ‘majority opinion’ against war, against state terrorism, against the attacks upon the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and it is our duty to the country, and the world, to speak up loudly against crimes the Administration is planning to commit (and the crimes it is covering up). Time to speak out, impeach Bush, repeal the Patriot Act, and shift the nation’s resources from attacking the world to rescuing endangered people and planet.” Brouillet hopes her march will encourage Congress to stop Bush’s war.
