Ehren Watada: "Soldiers Can Choose to Stop Fighting"
Dahr Jamail recites and comments on the powerful speech Lt. Ehren Watada presented to the Veterans for Peace National Convention on Saturday: "The only thing Watada said that I would disagree with is that he claimed that he is not a hero. He is a leader, yet again, by taking this stance. Today, it is up to the anti-war movement to make sure his leadership touches as many soldiers' lives in Iraq as possible. As he [Watada] said, if more American soldiers in Iraq know that they, along with their families, will be supported if they stand up against this illegal occupation, countless more will follow, and this repulsive war will end."
