Howard Dean calls on US to protect Camp Ashraf, provide medical care

NCRI – Howard Dean who was the Democtatic National Committee Chairman from 2004 to 2009, called on the U.S. government to protect Camp Ashraf.

In an interview with Politico on April 10, Dean said: “if we send the American troops in, [the Iraqis] will leave.” He called “on the U.S. to evacuate the wounded, turn the water back in the camp, and provide hospital care to the survivors of the raid.”

“We owe them and we promised we would protect them,” he said. “…These are obviously not terrorists. The former chairmen of the joint chiefs of staff will obviously not be consorting with terrorists,” he said.

In another part of his interview, Dean said that the reason for his support of the Iranian resistace is that: “…I’m for the underdog. These guys are getting a bad rap and they are getting killed for it.”
