The continued occupation of Iraq by US coalition
forces is the most recent stage of a long standing racist war agsinst
the Iraqi people. The Iraqi people will never be free as long as
foreign occupiers remain in their country. Instead of preventing the
deteoration of Iraqi society, the US military presence is actually the
driving force behind the death and destruction ravaging the region.
Alongside escalating military operations
in Iraq come escalating recruitment efforts to fill the military's
shrinking ranks. In order to pay for their war on Iraq they are cutting
spending on education, job training and disaster relief. Young people
are watching educational opportunities in their schools diminish while
recruiting efforts intensify. We refuse to stand by quietly as our
generation gets signed up for endless war.
