Location Details:

Our anti-war movements have a clear stance: from veterans, to families of service members, to young people considering enlistment - we will not fight or die in US wars for imperialism and zionism. There is no flag large enough to cover the shame of killing innocent people in this utterly depraved and criminal US war against Iran, Lebanon and Palestine. Young people are organizing against enlisting in the military knowing full well that they will be used as expendable cannon fodder in these illegal wars. The crisis of our current systems causes extreme poverty, lack of education opportunities - creating a poverty draft and pipeline that funnels the desperate into uniform to die for the profits of foreign occupation of the US elite and war profiteers, especially exploiting Black, brown, migrant and Indigenous poor communities. U.S. veterans who have carried out America's wars from Vietnam to Iraq are campaigning to resist this dangerous and illegal war against Iran. There are legal mechanisms to request conscientious objection, and organizations that can guide those who decide not to participate in acts of war. Soldiers are already coming back to the US draped in American Flags in coffins. Veterans organizations are preparing and calling on GI's to resist illegal orders from Minneapolis to Tehran.

Hear from activists: GI's resisting illegal orders, Conscientious Objectors, Mothers Against the War and Anti-war Youth organizing counter recruitment speaking out against the war on Iran. Historically, these voices together in the anti-war movement have played a critical role to grow the popular dissent against US wars. Let us learn from these lessons and unite to Resist U.S. Endless Wars today!
