Recently Iraq Veterans Against the War conducted a demonstration in New York City. Operation FIRST CASUALTY was designed to show people on the street the realities of the U.S. military occupation of Iraq.
The NYC Independent Media Center has some good pictures. And below the fold I've included some YouTube video. Todd E. Dennis, a member of Iraq Veterans Against the War from Mondovi, WI, put the video on his Facebook site and asked for people to share it.
If you are so inclined, you can contribute to IVAW.
Below the fold includes some upcoming IVAW events too.
The next video includes music by David Rovics.
The upcoming IVAW events on the website are mostly in Chicago, although Adam Kokesh is having a press conference today at Washington, DC's Union Station at 5 PM.
Chicago events:
Sunday, June 17: Operation FIRST CASUALTY
Monday, June 18: Peace Tower, Warrior Writers performances
Friday, August 3: Vietnam Veterans Against the War holds its 40th reunion.
BTW, the Chicago organizer for IVAW is Aaron Hughes. He's an artist. You can see some of his art on his web site. It's also on display at the National Vietnam Veterans Art Museum. I encourage people to visit the museum while in Chicago for the Yearly Kos. The museum is a short walk from McCormick Place, the site of Yearly Kos.
