The Citizens Electoral Council supports U.S. Congressman and Democratic Party Presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich's bills of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney, as Kucinich has heeded Lyndon LaRouche's warning that only the impeachment of Cheney will foil his drive to bomb Iran.
In a November 9 letter to the head of the U.S. Judiciary Committee, Kucinich made the following warning:
"Recent reports indicate that the Vice President is attempting to shape the National Intelligence Estimate on Iran to conform to his misperceptions about the threat Iran actually poses. Much like his deceptive efforts in the lead up to the Iraq war, the Vice President appears to be manipulating intelligence to conform to his beliefs."
According to a U.S. military source, the 8th Air Force, assigned to the Strategic Command (STRATCOM), has prepared detailed attack plans, that could be activated without even conferring with the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). Under theses plans, the assault on Iran will take place before Congress is informed of the decision to attack.
Republican Senator Chuck Hagel delivered a speech on U.S.-Iranian relations at the Center for Strategic and International Studies on November 8, where he denounced Cheney/Bush policy as a "self-fulfilling prophecy of the President's warning of World War III," and outlined an approach echoing the LaRouche Doctrine for Southwest Asia and the so-called Baker-Hamilton report.
As Kucinich concluded in his letter, "impeachment remains the only tool Congress has to prevent a war in Iran."
On November 6, Kucinich introduced a privileged resolution to the floor of the House to impeach Vice President Dick Cheney, which has now been referred to the Judiciary Committee. Despite Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi's stalling, impeachment is now "on the table."
Lyndon LaRouche demanded the Congress move for the "pre-emptive impeachment" of Cheney now, and if Nancy Pelosi stands in the way, she must be removed too.
Given Australia's support for Cheney's attack on Iraq, John Howard and Kevin Rudd must declare to the Australian people in this election campaign whether they support Cheney's plans to bomb Iran, or whether they support the Kucinich impeachment bills to stop it; to date, both Howard and Rudd have expressed support for the Bush/Cheney administration's warmongering belligerence against Iran.
