Iraq Veterans Against the War

Some people say that “If you don’t support the war in Iraq, then you don’t support our troops.” Try telling that to the members of the "Iraq Veterans Against the War” organization, because they obviously don't see it that way.

According to their official website, the IVAW “was founded by Iraq war veterans in July 2004 at the annual convention of Veterans for Peace (VFP) in Boston to give a voice to the large number of active duty service people and veterans who are against this war, but are under various pressures to remain silent.”

The site has a lot of useful information on it, which includes why they are against the war. It even has a page on their site titled “Resources for Active Duty Soldiers, National Guard, and Reserves” definitely worth checking out. The home page for their site is at http://ivaw.org/
