We Support the Troops Who Oppose the War This spring, Iraq Veterans
Against the War (IVAW) is revealing the reality of the U.S. occupation of Iraq
and Afghanistan. In what will be history's largest gathering of U.S. veterans
who served in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as Iraqi and Afghan survivors,
eyewitnesses will share their experiences in a public investigation called
Winter Soldier: Iraq and Afghanistan.
Truth, honesty and integrity are essential components to a functioning
democracy. Concerned veterans are taking it upon themselves to make their
experiences available to everyone who cares about the direction of our country.
Soldiers and Marines are not to blame for the suffering of the people of Iraq
and Afghanistan. These veterans stories will indicate that responsibility
belongs to those in the seat of power and the problem goes much deeper than the
atrocities of Abu Ghraib and Haditha.
This public investigation will be called the Winter Soldier: Iraq and
Afghanistan. Winter Soldiers, according to founding father Thomas Paine, are
the people who stand up for the soul of their country, even in its darkest
hours. The lives of millions of people depend on Americans having informed
opinions and acting in accordance to their principles. The lives of thousand
service members and civilians depend on you being a Winter Soldier.
