Byron,

Thank you for you support. Kind words are always appreciated. In Kansas City, I stared down a corrupt element of this administration and they blinked first. Now, Iraq Veterans Against the War has the initiative. And just as we were taught in boot camp, when you have the initiative, you keep fighting. That’s what we’re going to do.

But bear in mind, our democracy has failed us. The time for protests, rallies, and demonstrations is over. It is time for the people to stop this war. It is going to take nonviolent direct action in the form of strikes, blockades, counter-recruiting, and supporting GI resistance. IVAW will lead the way and veterans are always willing to put their lives on the line for what is right. I hope that you can find a way to support us. You can start by going to my blog (kokesh.blogspot.com) and signing the pledge.

Peace, Adam
