I will present this resolution to my local precinct meeting next month. I will be asking people across the state to present this resolution to the Democratic party precinct meetings, and I hope to move our party in this direction. I will also be doing education/outreach this weekend at the NC Democratic Party State Executive Committee.
A resolution calling for an orderly and peaceful withdrawal of US troops from Iraq in 2006.
Whereas the Iraqi people have engaged in the political process by electing leaders and ratifying a constitution,
Whereas the US military presence in Iraq is seen as an occupying force by the majority of Iraqi citizens,
Whereas the US military does not understand the culture, religion, language or social structure of Iraq,
Whereas the presence of US troops in Iraq encourages terrorism against the Iraqi people and encourages a raging insurgency against our troops,
Be it resolved that we call upon our government to start the process of orderly, peaceful withdrawal all US troops and official personnel from Iraq, leaving behind no bases, equipment, arms or structures behind.
And be it further resolved that this process of withdrawal be completed in a peaceful, orderly fashion by the end of the year 2006.
