"This is the Law and Order and Terror government,"
says MSNBC newsman Keith Olbermann. He also said
the US Government "... promised protection - or at least amelioration
- against all threats: conventional, radiological, or biological.
It has just proved that it cannot save its citizens from a
biological weapon called standing water."

"It doesn't matter whether you kill 8 or 3,000. An act of terror is an act of terror. And the United States, today, as we speak, is a terrorist state for allowing this to occur. But it's not just an act of terror, ladies and gentlemen, it's an Act of War. [referring to US-backed bombings inside Iran.]

What did we say after September 11th? That our nation was attacked. It didn't matter that it was a non-nation state that did this. That's why we are engaged in the global war on terror.

We declared war on Terror.
We declared war on those who practice Terror.

Well, what are we going to do, declare war on ourselves?
Because we're guilty of the same crime.

We're guilty of an Act of War.

America is at War with Iran. There can be no doubt about this."

...

"The President and his officials may stand up and say that they are embarked on a diplomatic route to achieve a peaceful resolution of the problem of Iran.

But this is wrong.

The President has one policy and one policy only, and that is, the removal of the regime of the mullahs in Tehran and replacing the regime of the mullahs with an American annoited alternative."

Listen to the interview and read the transcript here...

Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! interviewed Staff Sgt. Jimmey Massey, a 12-year Marine veteran. During the interview, Jimmey Massey said, "We're basically committing genocide over here, mass extermination of thousands of Iraqis, and with the depleted uranium that we're leaving around on the battlefield, you know, we're setting up genocide for future generations within Iraq."

Article in the Sacramento Bee:
"Atrocities in Iraq: 'I killed innocent people for our government,"
says Staff Sgt. Jimmy Massey, a hard-core Marine of 12 years. Quote: "I looked at him and told him: 'You know, I honestly feel that what we're doing is wrong over here. We're committing genocide.'"
