Oppose military escalation in Iraq!
While promising a new strategy for Iraq, President Bush and his neo-conservative advisors are expected to make a bad situation worse by pouring more troops into Iraq.
We urge you to vigorously oppose any military escalation in Iraq.
The war has already resulted in the deaths of more than 3,000 Americans, the wounding of an additional 22,000 soldiers, and taken the lives of tens of thousands of Iraqis. The U.S. position in the Middle East and around the world has sunk to an all-time low.
In the November elections, the American people made a clear statement that we need a change of course in Iraq. A major escalation of U.S. troops is not the new course we need.
Rather than support a troop increase, it is time to admit a tragic mistake and bring American soldiers home.
Members of Congress from both political parties need to raise their voices in opposition to this proposed escalation.
