"The Nation" comes out against the war.

I have no idea how important this magazine is in America but I sure wish we had one over here.

Perhaps we could use the strategic voter web site to identify pro war MP's and counsellors so we can vote them out.

I copy it here as just one more proof that the US will soon cut and run and the Brits had better not get left behind in the rush, or there will be many more British troops killed.

"The editors of the Nation Magazine has declared that they will not
support any Democrat for national elective office who continues to
support the war in Iraq.

"The Nation therefore takes the following stand: We will not support
any candidate for national office who does not make a speedy end to
the war in Iraq a major issue of his or her campaign. We urge all
voters to join us in adopting this position. Many worry that the
aftermath of withdrawal will be ugly, but we can now see that the
consequences of staying will be uglier still. Fear of facing the
consequences of Bush's disaster should not be permitted to excuse the
creation of a worse disaster by continuing the occupation."
