the oil companies, and that is
what this war is about. Russia
and the U.S. have already start
ed negotiations on splitting up
Iraq’s oil once the war is over,”
Steed said. “There’s evidence
right there. We haven’t been
attacked and by going in there
we’ll destabilize the whole
region and open a huge can of
worms.”
Steed said he thinks the
Bush administration is not con
sidering the interests of all
American citizens.
“One-third of our nation’s
homeless are veterans, and
Bush wants to create more,
even after cutting funding to
the VA hospitals,” he said.
“Bush and Cheney have never
been in combat. Tm going to
listen to the people who have
been in combat, and right now
most of those people are
against this war.”
With current economic
problems in Venezuela mean
ing less exported gasoline to
the United States, it is estimat
ed that a war with Iraq will
cause gasoline prices to sky
rocket to as much as $3 a gal
lon in some parts of the coun
try, Steed said.
Paul Cozby, a freshman
international business manage
ment major, said he supported
the protesters after he stopped
to sign the protesters’ petition
in the plaza.
“War is the last resort, but in
some cases it can’t be avoid
ed.” Cozby said.
Steven Mitchell, a member
of the Corps of Cadets and
sophomore environmental
design major, said war is some
times a necessary evil.
“If not for war we would be
speaking Japanese or German.
(Iraq) is going to bring this war
on everyone whether we like it
or not,” said Mitchell.
Halfway through the
protest, Denita Noland, the
interim minister for the
Unitarian Universalist
Fellowship, stepped up on one
of the nearby benches and the
protesters fell silent.
“The leaders of our great
nation have forgotten the les
sons of history and war,” said
Noland, as the shadow of a flag
at half-staff fell across the
crowd of protesters.
The protesters also held a
vigil at 6 p.m. at the Academic
Plaza.
