End the War

Anti-war demonstrators carry a flag-draped coffin by rows of flags in front of the White Hall Classroom Building yesterday. The students were taking part in a rally to protest the more than 2,000 deaths of U.S. soldiers in the war in Iraq.

Dude!

Sir,
Thank you for the work you are doing on behalf of the soldiers. I am currently deployed to Iraq. This is my second time here, and I have been stop-lossed. By the time I return to The United States, I will have served more than twelve months past my contract. I hope you continue your work to educate the public, especially now that the conservative right has Been galvanized by the election and perceives itself an unstoppable force in America. Yours is a respected (if not, feared) voice in Washington, and I hope you continue to champion our cause.

The polls don't show it, but there is a lot more dissension here now compared to 2003. More and more of us are becoming aware of the truth. As we continue to serve (whether it be as volunteers or conscripts), we will examine what our leaders say with more scrutiny. I see it happening here already. It may not make a difference now, but maybe in twenty years, when it's these men and women that are running for office. The meantime, though, is what worries me.

Daniel Paul Goetz
Much appreciated. Don't forget us.
