"But liberty, when men act in GROUPS, is POWER."
-- Edmund Burke
For those of you who are interested, email me
<Constitutional-Money@PoBox.Com> and I will forward to you the text of
SC Resolution 687. As you will see if and when you read it, it does not
authorize any state to use force against Iraq for any reason. The United
States and Britain are currently engaged in the illegal threat and use
of force against Iraq in violation of Article 2(3), Article 2(4) and
Article 33 of the United Nations Charter, inter alia. And the UN
Secretary General has just publicly given his purported imprimatur to
their illegal threat and use of force.
In the meantime, if you would like to sign an online petition protesting
Canada's role in supporting what the U.S. is doing in the Iraqi crisis,
click on the following URL:

Body of the petition is as follows:
We, the undersigned, do hereby petition the Prime Minister of Canada to
withdraw allCanadian military forces from the Gulf and to seek a
diplomatic solution to the crisisrather than a military one.
We call on the Government of Canada to condemn the actions of the United
StatesGovernment in its self-assigned role as "World's Policeman" and to
develop anindependent foreign policy in keeping with Canada's historical
role as a peacemaker not awarmonger.
Further we call on the Government of Canada to work for the removal of
those sanctionsagainst Iraq that have resulted in so much misery,
suffering and death of innocent Iraqi citizens.
