Democratic presidential hopeful Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio said the thinking that produced an Army school blamed for human-rights abuses in Latin America is the same type that led the U.S. to war in Iraq and could cause it to raid Iran.
Kucinich was speaking to a crowd police estimated at 10,000 at the 18th annual protest of the school at Ft. Benning that trains Latin American soldiers, police and government officials.
One of his first acts as president if elected would be to close the school, he said.
