[Peace-discuss] yet another letter to the editor

[Ricky Baldwin]

Dear Editor:

Two articles on the front page of the News-Gazette
(4/29/03) help illustrate just what “liberation” looks
like for Iraqis.  First, during one of the many recent
protests against US presence, US soldiers shot and
killed a group of children – many of them under 10. 
Second, UNICEF warns that millions of Iraqis – most of
them children – now face disease and possible death as
a result of US bombing of water treatment plants,
arguably a war crime, and war-related chemical
shortages.
