In the September 30th issue of the Israeli newspaper Ha 'aretz Congressman Tom Lantos was quoted as telling MK Colette Avital of the Israeli Labor Party, "You won't have any problem with Saddam. We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place we'll install a pro-Western dictator, who will be good for us and for you". http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=214159

Congressman Lantos denied making these and other statements but the author and the witnesses are standing by the quotes and a follow-up article has been promised. We here at the Ronald Reagan Home for the Criminally Insane applaud Congressman Tom Lantos' initial frankness and decided to place a personals style ad in three newspapers in order to help Congressman Lantos find just the right dictator. The ad ran in the Friday, October 18th addition of the San Mateo County Times, the San Mateo Daily News and the San Mateo Daily Journal. The ad will also run again in the Monday and Tuesday additions of the San Mateo Daily Journal. The ad was paid for by Citizens for Regime Change in San Mateo / San Francisco and promotes a demonstration happening at Lantos' office on Wednesday, October 23rd located at 400 South El Camino Real in San Mateo taking place between 4:30-6:30 PM. This will be the fourth demonstration at Lantos' office called for by San Mateo Peace Action, Peninsula Peace and Justice Center and Global Exchange to protest Congressman Lantos' ghoulish support for an unprovoked war on Iraq. To see the ad (if it doesn't show up on the screen or to learn more about Congressman Lantos, the war on Iraq, the anti-war movement in the San Francisco Bay Area and creative protest by the Ronald Reagan Home for the Criminally Insane check out http://www.insanereagan.com
