Iraq War Veterans

Iraq Veterans share their first-hand knowledge and a critical analysis of the occupation of Iraq. Their voices are unique, poignant and bridge divides across the political spectrum. The actions the Iraq Veterans are taking to end the occupation are inspiring and the leadership, strength and courage they offer to the peace movement invaluable.

Youth throughout the country, especially low-income youth and youth of color, are being targeted by recruiters and lied to about what their experience will be in the military. They deserve to hear the truth from Iraq Veterans before they make a decision about joining the military. Invite an Iraq Veteran to your community to learn from their experiences and set up a speaking event for them in your local high school!

Topics covered

  • The Occupation of Iraq: A Veterans Perspective
  • Lies My Recruiters Told Me Before I Joined
  • Counter-Recruitment
