Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (DOH), who leads opposition in the
House to the war in Iraq, issued [Fri, 21 Mar 2003] the following
statement on the 'shock and awe' air campaign:
"Today is a sad day, the United States has begun its 'shock and awe' air campaign against Iraq. By all accounts this attack will rain thousands of bombs down on a heavily populated area."
"The 'shock and awe' air campaign is a horrific acceleration of the United States' unprovoked attack against Iraq. This air campaign is designed to aim the full might of the United States military apparatus at the center of a civilian population."
"Today, my thoughts and prayers are with the coalition service men and women serving in the region and with the innocent Iraqi civilians. We must end this unjustified war."
