A new lawsuit has been filed to get all the documents the government has withheld. There are many parallels between Leonard’s case & the war in Iraq. Both were created upon the foundation of lies. In time many of the fabrications were revealed. In both cases the government resisted releasing documents that revealed the truth. Behind both are the same reasons for what took place, the interests of multi-national energy corporations. This year our call is for: PEACE WITH JUSTICE & TRUTH! FREE THE DOCUMENTS! We need help getting the word out for this event. Please forward this and other messages we send out to web sites, blogs, e-mail lists, organizations and friends.
