The War in Iraq is an Unjust War |
Edict Date: 12-09-2005
The Church of Reality finds that the American led war in Iraq is an unjust war.
- The American and British government fabricated false evidence to start the war. The war is a fraud.
- The war lacks United Nations support.
- Iraq was invaded, conquered, and is now being occupied by invading nations who are attempting to establish a US controlled puppet government.
- The United States committed and continues to commit war atrocities against the civilian population of Iraq including the use of torture, rape, chemical weapons, and random murder.
- The US refuses to give prisoners access to the Red Cross.
- The US refuses to give prisoners due process of law.
- The US maintains a network of secret prisons where people are tortured.
- The war in Iraq serves no great purpose.
- The war is against the interests of world peace, positive evolution, and the war advances the cause of strengthening Muslim terrorism and religious hatred.
- The war is primarily a religious war between Christians and Muslims that have been slaughtering each other for thousands of years. There are also elements of theft of oil resources as the real interest behind this war.
The Church of Reality declares this war to be an unjust cause. Realists as always have a duty to make their own individual decision about the Iraq war but the Church of Reality has determined that this war is so obviously wrong that it is issuing an edict against it.
Nation-states that would draft Realists into military service against their will to fight in this war, be warned: we are not on your side. This war is so unjust that Realists should actively undermine the integrity of the fighting force you are commanded to serve in. I want to make it clear to the United States of America that you don't want Realists to be part of this conflict because Realist consider you the enemy of peace and that a Realist's first loyalty is to the Sacred Principles.
