Re: [casi] Suggestion: Plebiscite in Iraq




[ Presenting plain-text part of multi-format email ]

How can the UN safely organize a mass vote when american troops are still present?  They have no 
electricity, no good water, no medical supplies & little food.  The marines are running around 
waving their guns & the country is still not safe.  Philippa, your idea is a good one but very 
premature.  Let's get the kids fed & healthy, the sick & wounded mended, & electricity & water to 
these occupied peoples before we stress them with trying to get them to vote. The UN needs to start 
making some demands of the u.s. period. Judy

UN to organize a
plebiscite (mass vote) in Iraq regarding the occupation, the kind of
government Iraqis want, how they want to produce and distribute their oil,
etc. East Timor recently had a plebiscite which was part of it gaining
independence from Indonesia, Philippa
