Iraq Vets speak out, Oliver Stone to help.

I recently ran across the story that Oliver Stone will directing a TV spot meant to help speed up the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. I guess the websites MoveOn.org and VoteVets.org have teamed up to create a project called Video Vets, where veterans of the Irag war can send in video tapes showing their viewpoints on the Iraq war. Oliver Stone is an astute choice due to his experiences as a veteran of another unpopular and questionable war in Viet Nam.

The objective is to show that despite what the current US administration asserts, being Anti-War is not the same as Anti-American or Anti-Troops.

At any rate, the videos up for viewing right now are personal, touching, and real. It's great when you get a 'inside' look at things without a media or political spin. No one is more qualified to speak about the situation in Iraq than those who have been there and participated in the war. Let's hear THEIR voice for a change. You can view all of the videos by clicking this link. It's maybe best to let them speak for themselves.
