"The Salvador Option"
Newsweek recently reported that the Pentagon is considering a
new plan for Iraq, known as "The Salvador Option," modeled on
U.S. support of paramilitary "death squads" in Central America
in the 1980s. In El Salvador and Guatemala alone such groups
assassinated or "disappeared" well over 150,000 civilians.
The invasion of Iraq was sold to the American public as a
necessary means to stop terrorism and to promote democracy. Two
years later, the United States is on the verge of initiating
death squads. Urge your elected officials to oppose "The Salvador Option".
