Petition to call for the impeachment of Pres. George Bush for war crimes Dear friends, Please go to: http://www.VoteToImpeach.org to sign the following petition for the impeachment of Pres. George Bush for war crimes committed against the people of Afghanistan and Iraq. The murder of innocent civilians is a war crime under the Geneva Convention, and the aggressive wars against sovereign nations have made the United States hated and viewed as a bully by much of the world. This is a chance to show the world that not all Americans are war-mongers. These crimes against peace should be punishable by impeachment and removal from office. Peacefully yours, Nancy Hey Articles Of Impeachment Of President George W. Bush Vice President Richard B. Cheney Secretary Of Defense Donald H.
