GO BACK BUSH: KILLERS ARE NOT WELCOME HERE.

WE DO NOT SHAKE HANDS WITH THEM



We, the people of Bangalore, note with deep resentment and anguish, that the President of the United States, Mr. George W Bush Jr. is accorded a state visit to India, in the first week of March, 2006.



Mr. Bush, who would like to preside over the globe as a ruling global headman, is unwelcome to our country, as he is anywhere he goes, due to the unbridled terror that he and his government have unleashed over mankind, through military invasion of Afghanistan, US supported Israeli state sponsored terrorism over Palestinians and the threat of invasion of Iran. Above all, he is the symbol of the illegal military invasion and occupation of Iraq and the cold blooded murder of thousands of Iraqis.



It is our duty to remind Mr. Bush, our governments at the centre and various states, that Mr. Bush is not welcome and we consider it our moral duty to greet him with the message, “GO BACK BUSH”. Our parliament, barely three years ago, with rare unanimity, had condemned the military invasion of Iraq, in true acceptance of the peace loving sentiments of our people. NOW TOO WE CHOOSE NOT TO DO OTHERWISE.



We are fully aware that Mr. Bush is not coming here for any love for India or her people. While expressing our deep love for the people of America, and their growing sentiments in defence of peace, we note that Mr. Bush’s main aim is to gain greater access to the Indian market on behalf of the US corporations and to bind India as a strategic partner, in several military initiatives, euphemistically called the global war on terror. We proudly reject all these “benefits”.



We further want to send a strong signal, to those in government and outside, who succumb to their illegitimate subservience to the US global interests, forgetting the US’s heinous crimes against humanity, and our people’s steadfast role in defence of peace and independence. We thus remind ourselves of Rabindra Nath Tagore’s famous words,” And some day the invincible spirit of man in its victory march will surmount all obstacles, to win back human dignity for mankind … the vanity of power is not secure, even for the mightiest of the mighty: the day has come to show this to the world.”



We choose precisely to do that.



We greet Mr. Bush with our message: GO BACK BUSH. HANDS OFF IRAN. LEAVE AFGHANISTAN. STOP BLEEDING IRAQ. GO BACK BUSH. GO BACK.
