ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT FINALLY IN GEAR

For OpEdNews: Allen L Roland - Writer
The anti-war movement is breathing new life as the latest polls indicate the public is finally waking up from a long sleep and ready to take action.
As such, the anti-war movement is ready to focus their efforts on organizing peace voters into an effective political power ~ a power, by the way, that should shift the political balance of power in November.
Polls show the Iraq occupation is not wanted by Iraqis or U.S. citizens, nor is it wanted by U.S. soldiers in Iraq or the foreign policy establishment in Washington, DC ~ it is, in essence, the war that only the Cheney/Bush Administration wants .
When Cheney& Bush talk about progress in Iraq ~ they neglect the truth that only 9% of Iraqis voted for the National Unity tickets in the American Managed Iraq election.
Experts in civil law describe CIVIL WAR as a breakdown in civil order and a refusal by a significant percentage of a population to recognize the established governmental authority.
Make no mistake about it ~ The Iraqis rightfully do not trust their American sponsored Government Authority, rightfully do not trust America and are engaged in a resultant bloody civil war ~ which will not end until we pack up our military bases and leave.
Kevin Zeese , ICH, summarizes the latest polls and the emergence of an anti-war political force which can no longer be ignored .

A POWERFUL NEW VOTING BLOCK EMERGES
The Anti-War Movement Becoming a Political Force That Cannot Be Ignored
Written by Kevin Zeese

03/16/06 "Democracy Rising" -- -- A new national poll shows that a near majority of voters either strongly or somewhat agree with a pledge not to vote for pro-war candidates. This makes the anti-war movement's potential impact on elections larger than pro-gun, anti-abortion, or anti-gay marriage voters. Politicians will have to pay heed to this new political force.
The pledge states:
"I will not vote for or support any candidate for Congress or President who does not make a speedy end to the war in Iraq, and preventing any future war of aggression a public position in his or her campaign."
