CLICK HERE FOR MORE TEXT INFO: IVAW members seize National Archives Building on March 19th, 2008 in front of hundreds of surprised museum visitors. Response from visitors including teachers, students, vacationers was highly positive though there were a few horrified faces in the crowd. IVAW read the terms of our Citizens Arrest Warrant and stood their ground for 90 minutes. They were allowed to leave without being arrested in one of the most spectacular CD events I've ever witnessed. Next stop was the Justice Department where the call for Bush and Cheney arrest was repeated, and then the White House where similar demands were made. This action comes on the heels of IVAW's Winter Soldier Investigation: Iraq and Afghanistan, held at the National Labor College in Silver Springs, M.D. on March 13-16, 2008, where these and many other vets from the Iraq and Afghanistan war testified about their experiences. Those testimonies may be heard by visiting their link here: http://www.ivaw.org/wintersold... videos of this days spectacular events may be seen by clicking on the owners profile, or this link: http://www.youtube.com/user/Go... support your local IVAW, VeteransForPeace and VVAW chapters.

"I affirm that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States from all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same."It's an oath, not a cliché.

Theyre entitled to their opinions and have a right to speak out, especially considering the fact they know first hand what the war is like. However, I do not agree with what theyre saying, and I am enlisting in the Marines still. These guys don't bother me really, they did their service to their country, and now they believe they still are.

These vets have been fucked over big time by our govt, I want my tax dollars to bail each and every Vet out , NOT these fucking wall-street CEO's. Excuse my French, but what this country has done to lie these military personnel into an illegal war is criminal. CONVICT BUSH AND CHENEY NOW!!!

Freedom of speech. It's our American right, and is our duty to America. Its our responsibility to keep the government in check... I don't blame the military for being so angry and feeling abused... Our country has made it so our adult children can only have a job if they enlist in the service. This is wrong. I do hope who ever gets elected that they follow through and create new jobs for our young. I also hope ther isn't reverse prejudges towards whites.

Veterans coming home against the war and then waving upside down flags really gives me hope and makes me very happy. I may be totally against war and fighting and killing, but i will respect a man or woman who has come back from the war i am against fighting to end the war. i really wanna meet up with some of these vets to talk. and to those that ignore our vets, and say their just fucked up in the head, and are not doing shit for them after coming home from war, all i can say to you is FUCK YOU

It warms my heart to see the barracks taking a stand against this war and against this ugly regime propped up by stormtrooper police. God knows the liberals weren't gonna get shit done.IVAW ALL THE WAY! And if things get ugly and the police resort to force to repress our veterans we'll be right along side the war vets to fight the donut patrol.
