Home > Kerry for president
We European citizens (Italians, French, Germans and Britons) want to talk to
all American citizens. On 2 November 2004 you will face a choice between two
candidates and two parties, but more than that. You have a chance to take a giant
stride forward for the good of all humanity. You can choose between the future
and the past, between reason and ignorance between true compassion and mere ideology.
This is your moment you must not falter. We love your country; we love the American
people and the American culture. We share your values: freedom, democracy, equal
rights for all human beings.
We fear that our world, a world that we all share together, is in danger. 9/11
has shown us that a group of criminals is determined to destroy democracy, but
what has followed, the so called War on Terror, has enormously worsened the situation,
rather than improving it. As the entire world knows the truth is that the so
called War on Terror is a war for oil against innocent people. In Iraq, the US
bombings have killed thousands of civilians, including women and children. The
terrorists have not been destroyed by the War on Terror launched by President
Bush. On the contrary, the Army of Terror is growing and growing and growing.
For example when the horrifying images of U.S. soldiers torturing Iraqi prisoners taken in Abu Ghraib prison circulated in the press, many people in Europe were shocked and disgusted. And what has happened in the minds of millions of young Muslim persons is that their humiliation and their hatred has become fuel for another twenty years of growing violence.
Please stop this war. Only you can do it. President Bush is a professional liar. He lied when he said that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. Saddam Hussein was a creepy dictator (once upon a time supported by American money), but he did not pose any threat to the American people. Bush lied again when he said that his mission was accomplished.
Thousand of Americans have died since then. And President Bush is impudently lying when he says that the world is a safer place. This is absolutely false. The world is a hundred times more unsafe as shows what’ s happened in Spain, Russia, Turkey... Please stop this war. Only you can do it. The army of terrorists is ten times bigger than it was two years ago, and the candidates to explosive suicide are thousands, and will soon be millions.
Every day western people are killed, kidnapped, aggressed. And this is the unavoidable consequence of the daily slaughter of civilians provoked by US bombs, for a war not against Terror but for the Iraqi Oil. Please stop this war. Only you can do it. This war is going to cost more than Vietnam did, for the West, and for the American people. Vietnam was a limited problem. Once defeated, the Americans could go back home, and were left in peace.
This time it’s going to be much worse. If the Americans do not go away now, the plague will expand everywhere, becoming a global civil war. And the terror will swallow our future, our children and our lives. Please stop this war. Only you can do it. Please don’t vote for George W. Bush

We saved you Europeans twice. You should mind your own business and stay out of ours. So you think electing a person like Kerry, a traitor against his own country would be a strp forward for humanity?
What idiots you are. We should have let the Russians have you and we take Poland after WWII.

This comment is absurd. This man thinks he’s God. The writer is trying to make a point. What a stupid comment. Get rid of it.

Thank you for your comments, they are always appreciated. However, I can’t help but wonder why Europeans, who claim that the world is in danger, blame Bush instead of the terrorists. First of all this is not a war for oil. Forty-five percent of our oil comes from our own resources, less than 20% come from the entire middle east, the balance comes from everywhere else such as UK, Norway, Venezuela, etc.
You are so concerned about the Iraqui civilians, yet you ignored them for the last 20 years while Saddam was in power and was killing them by the tens of thousands and dumping them in mass graves; your governments have thwarted the sanctions imposed on Iraq by stealing money using the oil-for-food program that was meant to help the Iraquis. Abu Gharaib is a scandal but the perpetrators are being brought to justice as I write. You can’t say the same about the terrorists that have committed hundreds of kidnappings, beheadings and attacks on ordinary Iraquis while they line up to get jobs to rebuild their country. As for Saddam, he was more than a creepy dictator, he attacked Iran and Kuwait and has contributed money to other terrorists or afforded them refuge in Iraq. Your effort to minimize our concerns and deny yours will not do you any good. I and millions of Americans will vote for George W. Bush so he can continue to put Afghanistan and Iraq on the road to democracy.
