anti-American protest/boycott in BELGIUM: bush* the KILLING master (PHOTOS
Edited on Mon May-31-04 09:04 PM by amen1234

George W. Bush master of ceremony for Iraqi killing fields

Gent, Belgium, May 28 2004 - The sun is blazing near one of the main railway stations in Belgium. A bride and groom sit still on a chair with red stained blood running down their white face. They are death. Thirty corpses with white masks wrapped in blankets lay around the just-married couple. Many travellers at the Gent railway station know immediately that this street-theatre is referring to the innocent Iraqi civilians killed during a wedding party by the occupying U.S. forces in Iraq during the night of May 19th 2004.

A recent opinion poll conducted by NOP World shows that U.S. brands are currently suffering around the world due to Bush foreign policy. With the boycott, support, and increase, this shift away from U.S. products.
