Cindy Sheehan Iraq Quotations

The deceptions and betrayals that led to the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq cost my family a price too dear to pay and almost too much to bear, the loss of my boy Casey.

I sympathize with Mrs. Sheehan. I've thought long and hard about her position, which is 'get out of Iraq now.' It would be a mistake for the security of this country.

We're over there and we need to come home, ... What happens in Iraq after we leave isn't a worry of ours. We need to let the Iraqi people handle their own business.

People are still dying every day in Iraq and we still have a war going on, ... We need to link them together, and they're connected. It's just another example of failure by this administration. Since the media's not merging them together it's going to be hard, but we'll keep trying.

No Iraqis Left Me on a Roof to Die

You get America out of Iraq, you get Israel out of Palestine.

We want accountability. We just buried a president [President Gerald Ford] who did not hold another president [President Nixon] accountable for war crimes and that's why we're in Iraq right now. Our leaders who get us into these messes are the ones who need to be held accountable.

You're taking away our freedoms. The Iraqi people aren't freer, they're much worse off than before you meddled in their country.

You should withdraw from Iraq along will all occupation forces. The Americans have no reason to stay there, and the Italians even less,

Why would I want one more mother -- either Iraqi or American -- to go through what I'm going through? I don't want him to justify my son's honorable sacrifice to continue his murderous killing policies,

So you're the little woman who stopped the Iraq war.

One of the bogus reasons that George Bush gives for this invasion (and) occupation of Iraq is to make America safer -- and Katrina exposed that clearly he has made America more vulnerable through his policies in Iraq.

We're going to do what we do all the time: gather together in peace. We're going to call for George Bush and the neo-cons not to invade Iran. That would be a mistake even worse than Iraq. Our children are sitting ducks in the Middle East; the people of Iran and Iraq would be sitting ducks. And I'm not even sure that this invasion won't lead to World War III. So it's something that we have to stop before it starts.

The war in Iraq will end, our troops will come home, Bush will be impeached and he will be brought to justice.

Last night I had fire ants crawling all over me. Physically it's very uncomfortable, but I think of all the soldiers in Iraq who, when it's too hot or too stormy, can't go into town for refuge. As bad as we have it here, it's nothing compared to how bad they have it over there.
