President Bush has [made it legal](http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/07/20070717-3.html) to dispossess any person that:

>(i) [...] have committed, or to pose a significant risk of committing, an act or acts of violence that have the purpose or effect of:
>
>(A) [threaten] the peace or stability of Iraq or the Government of Iraq; or
>
>(B) [undermine] efforts to promote economic reconstruction and political reform in Iraq or to provide humanitarian assistance to the Iraqi people;

It is absolutely trivial to show that opponents of the war in Iraq – for example, the representatives who [voted to pull the American troops from Iraq](http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6896789.stm) – violate some or all of those, especially (B).

This is a grim day, and I surely hope that the Americans will not stand for this.
