The following was published in the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram on Thursday, February 1st, 2007:

I am greatly disappointed by our government's merciless war on a conquered people. They may bomb them alive or shoot them dead, all under the U.S. and British flags, but most people in America and England are ashamed of it and want it to end.

Every day, 3,000 civilians flee Iraq and its sham Vichy government that was put there by the global oilmen. The whole thing is un-American. An American empire is insane. As a veteran, I am not happy with what is going on now!
