Dear Mr President

I do not remember having to write a letter fuelled by as much
anger, frustration and sadness as this one.

The United Nations, backed by many countries, under the
leadership of the United States of America, took steps to crush
the petty territorial ambitions of a vicious and barbaric
dictator.  At last we could smell the winds of change and we were
promised 'a new world order'.

But for the Kurds, it seems that this 'new world order' is not
only as bad but even worse than the old world order.

Kurdish mothers and children are dying of cold and starvation,
huddled together fearing constant attack by the Iraqi forces with
helicopter gunships closing in behind them intent on carrying out
Saddam Hussein's policy of genocide against the Kurdish people.

I join my voice to the hundreds of thousands, nay, millions, of
others who wish Your Excellency to take as appropriate the
necessary measures to stop Saddam Hussein from committing further
massacres against the Kurdish people in Iraq and to reverse his
merciless aggression against them.

Yours sincerely,
