Peace activist Cindy Sheehan urged a standing-room-only crowd at the Church of the Crossroads last night to unite to stop the war in Iraq, impeach President Bush and "see justice" for those killed since the war started in 2003.
"If you don’t want the war machine to invade your island, don’t let it happen," said Sheehan, whose 24-year-old son died in Iraq and who gained international attention for staging an anti-war demonstration outside Bush’s ranch in Texas.
"Anybody can do what I do.
We are the checks and balances for our country. We would like to see justice," she told the crowd of about 750...
Last night, she told audience members that she never got involved in anything before her son’s death because she believed she could not make a difference.
"
But we are the ones that have the power," she said. "We have a voice."
She said Bush should either resign or be impeached for leading the country into war, and she promised to "
fight to bring down the war machine in this country."
