A Letter to a War Cheerleader

The goal is to contact all the Iraq War architects and cheerleaders to ask them to consider sending some of the money they’ve made off the war to help the families of the soldiers and innocent Iraqis they helped kill. For no particular reason, we start with Richard Cohen of the Washington Post.

Dear Mr. Cohen:

You’ve been a supporter of the Iraq War since before it started.  You even described our killing of innocent Iraqis as “therapeutic” as recently as November of 2006.

At this point we can all pretty much agree that the war was sold to (most of) the nation by a pack of lies promulgated by the Bush Administration. Sadly, you fell for it and helped start and sustain the war.

I’m guessing you’ve made some money (salary, speaking fees, perhaps more) writing about and discussing the Iraq War. Have you donated any of this money to the families of the soldiers and innocent Iraqis whose lives you helped end?

Please let me know:  email is photonyc@gmail.com.  Thanks.

Of course, I’ll let you know what happens. Please feel free to suggest others I should contact.
