This Madness Must
Cease
Somehow this madness
must cease. We must stop now. I speak as a child of God and brother
to the suffering poor of Vietnam. I speak for those whose land
is being laid waste, whose homes are being destroyed, whose culture
is being subverted. I speak for the poor of America who are paying
the double price of smashed hopes at home and death and corruption
in Vietnam. I speak as a citizen of the world, for the world
as it stands aghast at the path we have taken. I speak as an
American to the leaders of my own nation. The great initiative
in this war is ours. The initiative to stop it must be ours.
