[Vision2020] iraq war protest jan 27

[Bill London]

While I had nothing to do with the planning of the Jan 27 march or the
choice of the recruitment center as a march destination, I support it.
why?
1. The Iraq war is immoral, wrong, self-defeating and unwinnable.  The war
is creating more terrorists and a more dangerous world.
2. The men and women who are considering volunteering for the US forces
would become instruments of this immoral policy and deserve to know the
folly of that decision.
3. The best way to "support the troops" is to save their lives and their
sanity, and end this immoral war.
