The continued occupation of Iraq by US coalition forces is the most recent stage of a long standing racist war against the Iraqi people. The Iraqi people will never be free as long as foreign occupiers remain in their country. Instead of preventing the deterioration 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.
