Dear Governor Kulongoski, I respectfully request that you uphold your oath to the Constitution of the United States by legally challenging the unlawful scheduled deployment of our Oregon National Guard into Iraq and Afghanistan in 2009. Waging aggressive, illegal wars are crimes against humanity and are in violation of our U.S. Constitution, U.S.-signed treaties, and international laws which the U.S.A. helped to establish after World War 2. The Nuremburg Principles make clear that it is the responsibility of ALL citizens to challenge illegal orders, and that complicity and silence in the face of genocide and war crimes are punishable to the full extent of national and international laws. We, the people, are standing with you to protect and support our troops, and we ask that you take immediate action to stop any further deployments of our state's people and resources into these illegal, immoral wars.
