Bring. Them. All. Home
Stop the U.S. government from continuing our military actions in the Middle East! These wars are for power, control & greed, not democracy! 15 years now, thousands of young Americans lives lost or ruined, no plan to leave. Vietnam deja vu!
Why is this important?
I know the tragedy of these wars because as a therapist I have tried to help young vets with PTSD. They struggle every day to forget the things they did and witnessed. More vets have committed suicide during or after these wars than even Vietnam. There are no clear objectives or they change sporadically, it's almost impossible to distinguish between innocent civilians & Muslim extremists. We aren't shown how bad it is there, we aren't told how horrifically our soldiers are tortured when they're captured, we don't know how traumatized they are about the things they were ordered to do. And they will never be the same.
