If you are a citizen or live in the U.S. you directly fund these crimes.
What are YOU going to do about it?

Several thousand civilians died in the collapse of the WTC towers, and
hundreds of military personnel were killed in the attack on the Pentagon
— though the numbers are small compared to
- the hundreds of thousands of civilians incinerated in the U.S.
fire bombings of Hamburg, Dresden and Tokyo, and in the atomic
bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki;
- the two to five million post-World-War-II refugees from the
Soviet Union who were forcibly returned to Stalin, to face either
immediate execution or a slow death in the Gulag, on the orders of
Roosevelt and Eisenhower in Operation Keelhaul;
- the millions of civilians who died from hunger and disease as a
result of U.S.-instigated mass starvation of Germans during
1945-1950 under the Morgenthau Plan;
- the millions of Native Americans killed by soldiers and
occupiers of their land in the 19th Century or allowed to starve to
death by the U.S. government in the 20th (a clear case of genocide);
- the thousands of Iranians tortured and murdered by SAVAK, the
secret police of the regime installed in 1953 as a result of a
CIA-led coup which overthrew the popular Iranian Premier, Mossadegh);
- the murder of between 20,000 and 40,000 Vietnamese from 1968 to
1971 by the CIA in their political assassination program Operation
Phoenix;
- the million or so Vietnamese, Laotians and Cambodians killed by
the American military in the 1960s and 70s whilst defending their
countries from American domination (or simply because they happened
to be where the Americans carried out their carpet bombings);
- the tens of thousands of civilians who were tortured and
murdered by CIA-installed dictatorships in Central and South
America;
- the 200,000 people (all civilians) killed (using U.S.-supplied
equipment) as a result of Indonesia's invasion of East Timor in 1975
for which prior approval was given by the then U.S. President and
U.S. Secretary of State (Ford and Kissinger);
- the six million Brazilian Indians who have died as a result of
the policies of multinational corporations;
the 10,000 to 20,000 people, mostly civilians, killed in the
U.S.-supported 1982 invasion of Lebanon by Israel;
the 300,000 Iranians killed in the Iran/Iraq war, which was started
by Iraq at the instigation of the U.S. (which supplied Iraq with the
weapons it used);
- the 180,000 civilians killed by Reagan's CIA-cocaine-funded
Contras in Nicaragua and El Salvador in the 1980s;
the 6,000 (perhaps as many as 20,000) Iraqi civilians killed during
the 41 days and nights of bombing by the British and the Americans
in 1991 (during which time the civilian infrastructure was targeted,
a war crime), including:
- the 500 civilians (including whole families) burnt alive and
turned into cinders when American missiles penetrated a shelter in
Baghdad;
- the tens of thousands of Iraqi conscripts slaughtered on the
"Highway of Death" by U.S. Navy pilots during their attempted
retreat from Kuwait in 1991 (another war crime because the soldiers
killed were not in a combat situation);
- the tens of thousands of Kurdish civilians killed in South-East
Turkey during the 1990s by Turkish government soldiers using weapons
and equipment supplied to them by the U.S. (which knew exactly what
they were doing with them);
- the tens of thousands of civilians in Sudan who have died due to
the absence of medicines resulting from the destruction of the
Sudanese pharmaceutical plant by American cruise missiles in 1998
and from the economic sanctions imposed on Sudan;
- the one to two million Iraqi civilians, two-thirds of them
children, who have died in the last ten years as a result of the
effects of the hundreds of tons of cancer-causing depleted uranium
left over from the million or so exploded rounds of DU ammunition
used in attacks by American warplanes in the 1991 American/British
6-week terrorist campaign against Iraq and from the subsequent
U.S./British-imposed economic blockade and criminally punitive
sanctions (not to mention those killed by the bombing raids which
occur every week);
- and the tens of millions of civilians who die every year in
Third World countries from starvation, disease and despair because
their countries are mired in poverty and corruption as a result of
economic exploitation by American multinationals acting with the
support and approval of the American government.
