Kucinich Calls for End to War in House Speech
Democratic presidential candidate Dennis J. Kucinich took his antiwar campaign to the House floor, calling for an end to the fighting in Iraq to allow weapons inspectors to return.
The representative from Ohio repeated “Stop this war now” 10 times, and said the campaign was built on “falsehood.”
“This war has been advanced on lie upon lie,” he said. “Iraq was not responsible for 9/11. Iraq was not responsible for any role Al Qaeda may have had in 9/11.”
“Rescue this nation from a war that is wrong, that is unjust, that is immoral,” he said.
