     From former Attorney-General of the United States, Ramsey Clark:

     President Bush consistently rejected and ridiculed Iraq's
efforts to negotiate a peaceful resolution, beginning with Iraq's
August 12 proposal, largely ignored, and ending with its mid-
February peace offer which he called a "cruel hoax."  For his part,
President Bush consistently insisted there would be no negotiation,
no compromise, no face saving, no reward for aggression. 
Simultaneously, he accused Saddam Hussein of rejecting diplomatic
solutions.

     President Bush led a sophisticated campaign to demonize Saddam
Hussein, calling him a Hitler, repeatedly citing reports of the
murder of hundreds of incubator babies he knew were false, accusing
Iraq of using chemical weapons on his own people and on the
Iranians, knowing U.S. intelligence believed the reports untrue.

     After subverting every effort for peace, President Bush began
the destruction of Iraq, answering his own question,  "Why not wait?
. . . The World could wait no longer."

     The course of conduct constitutes a crime against peace.


     3.   President Bush ordered the destruction of 
          facilities essential to civilian life and
          economic productivity throughout Iraq.
          _________________________________________


     Systematic aerial and missile bombardment of Iraq was ordered
to begin at 6:30 p.m. E.S.T.  January 16, 1991, 18 1/2 hours after
the deadline set on the insistence of President Bush, in order to
be reported on prime time TV.  The bombing continued for 42 days. 
It met no resistance from Iraqi aircraft and no effective anti-
aircraft or anti-missile ground fire.  Iraq was defenseless.

     The United States concedes it flew 110,000 air sorties against
Iraq, dropping 88,000 tons of bombs, nearly 7 times the equivalent
of the atomic bomb that destroyed Hiroshima.  93% of the bombs were
free falling bombs, most dropped from higher than 30,000 feet.  Of
the remaining 7% of the bombs with electronically guided systems,
more than 25% missed their targets, nearly all caused damage
primarily beyond any identifiable target. Most of the targets were
civilian facilities.

     The intention and effort of the bombing of civilian life and
facilities was to systematically destroy Iraq's infrastructure,
leaving it in a pre-industrial condition.  Iraq's civilian 
population was dependent on industrial capacities.  The U.S.
assault left Iraq in a "near apocalyptic condition", as reported 
by the first United Nations observers after the war.  Among the
facilities targeted and destroyed were:

     --   electric power generation, relay and transmission,

     --   water treatment, pumping and distribution systems and
          reservoirs,

     --   telephone and radio exchanges, relay stations, towers and
          transmission facilities,

     --   food processing, storage and distribution facilities and
          markets, infant milk formula and beverage plants, animal
          vaccination facilities and irrigation sites

     --   railroad transportation facilities, bus depots, bridges,
          highway overpasses, highways, highway repair stations,
          trains, buses and other public transportation vehicles,
          commercial and private vehicles

     --   oil wells and pumps, pipelines, refineries, oil storage
          tanks, gasoline filling stations and fuel delivery tank
          cars and trucks, and kerosene storage tanks

     --   sewage treatment and disposal systems.

     --   factories engaged in civilian production, e.g., textile
          and automobile assembly

     --   Historical markers and ancient sites

     As a direct, intentional and foreseeable result of this
destruction, tens of thousands of people have died from dehydration,
dysentery and diseases caused by impure water, inability to obtain
effective medical assistance and debilitation from hunger, shock,
cold and stress.  More will die until potable water, sanitary
living conditions, adequate food supplies and other necessities are
provided.  There is a high risk of epidemics of cholera, typhoid,
hepatitis and other diseases as well as starvation and malnutrition
through the summer of 1991 and until food supplies are adequate and
essential services are restored.

     Only the United States could have, and almost exclusively, 
the United States conducted the destruction of Iraq.  The conduct
violated the U.N. Charter, the Hague and Geneva Conventions, the
Nuremberg Charter and the laws of armed conflict.


     4.   The United States intentionally bombed and destroyed
          civilian life, commercial and business districts,
          schools, hospitals, mosques, churches, shelters,
          residential areas, historical sites, private vehicles and
          civilian government offices.

        The America Public is evidently in dire need of the truth, 
        for when the plutocracy feeds us sweet lies in place of the 
        bitter truth that would evoke remedial action by the People,
        then we are in peril of sinking inextricably into despotism.

        So, please post the episodes of this ongoing series to 
        computer bulletin boards, and post hardcopies in public places,
        both on and off campus. The need for concerned people alerting
        their neighbors to overshadowing dangers still exists, as it 
        did in the era of Paul Revere. That need is as enduring as
        society itself.
