The co-founder of Iraq Veterans Against the War knows firsthand why the United States' mission in Iraq is the wrong war.

Mike Hoffman
Interviewed By Eva Steele-Saccio

October 11, 2004




Corporal Mike Hoffman knows firsthand why the United States' war in Iraq is the wrong war. Deployed with his Marine Corps unit in February 2003, Hoffman fought in both Tikrit and Baghdad. Though he had his doubts about the war from the start, he saw going to Iraq as a matter of professionalism and loyalty. But it soon became clear to him that the U.S. occupation was doing more harm than good -- to both Iraqis and Americans. "The hardest thing,” he says, "is knowing what we’ve done to the kids there."

After returning home with an honorable discharge last August, Hoffman decided to do something. Teaming up with a small group of fellow soldiers, Hoffman co-founded the organization Iraq Veterans Against the War, to push for an end to the Iraq occupation and advocate for the rights of returning soldiers. Hoffman has spoken at hundreds of antiwar events, giving voice to the concerns of soldiers who've returned from Iraq, and those who are still there and have doubts about the war but are nervous about speaking out.

Hoffman recently spoke to MotherJones.com by phone from his home in Pennsylvania.

...who will instantly want to start slandering this guy...

Sign the fuck up or shut the fuck up. Your choice.

"Sign the fuck up or shut the fuck up"

Think I'll clean it up a tad and make a bumper sticker.

... or even smaller stickers that people can leave in malls, restrooms, benches.... shopping carts...

I know we have to try not to alienate or offend people, but "Sign the heck up" doesn't quite have the same... punch to it? :)

he is a pretty good rallyer.

he's doing the right thing.

over 6000 active duty military have LEFT bush* wars, with the legal advice and underground railroad from OUR VERY OWN VETERANS...

the revolution has begun....


:toast:

That's awesome. :) Thanks for telling us about that.

These are great pictures. Also, I appreciate all of the work you have done posting other pix on other threads.:yourock:

Oh yeah, nominated!

thanks...

There was a discussion a while back on this. I said there were two kinds here in NY; yellow, and red, white, and blue. Ok, so yesterday I was at the Mall early, waiting for one store to open and had time to kill. I went around the parking lot looking at those stickers up close. Yep, I was right. One side of the yellow ribbon stickers said, Support our troops. The OTHER side of the ribbon said, "BRING THEM HOME." The red, white and blue ones also said, Support our troops, but the other side said, "God Bless America." Yellow stickers were in the definite majority. Only a handful of the red, white, and blue.

I just love this BLUE State. Thank you, neighbors!

Thanx! A well-deserved kick!

Thanks for the cool pictures from Fort Bragg. We had three actions here in Las Vegas on Saturday and the last one (on the Strip) ended in unfair arrests. Indymedia links in the following:

from my standpoint overseas, on a military base.

The best tactic we have is to get behind these anti-war groups started by veterans and soldier's groups.

They will be listened to as the tree-huggers will always be mocked and never taken seriously.

Offer them support in whatever way you can. This is our biggest hope of making any impact.

They're great. :) I like the third one. The policemen just hanging out watching instead of arresting. :)

:kick:

I live in NC- a "red state", and these pictures make me feel like my town is not alone. I'm always reassured when I see photographic evidence pointing out the huge numbers of people who have some sense.

Hats off to vets for seeing through * lies.

thankee

I can't connect to the URL and the photos aren't loading. I really want to see them. Any suggestions?

re-boot? Or just turn the thing off and let it rest for a couple minutes and then come back.

run an offshore software development company in Kathmandu (sorry, i know outsourcing/offshore are politically incorrect).

i cannot access indymedia.org. everything else is fine. can't figure it out.

I live in Nepal where a royal coup took place on Feb 1. The press is censored and I'm now certain that my ISP has been told to block access to this site. It must link to the Maoist website in some way. Amazing... my first real experience of what it would/will be like when the Bushies take over the Internet. VERY SCARY.

Good post. :kick:

I was there at the Fayetteville demo as well. The strength of it was not in numbers, but in the large contingent of military families and veterans that made the trip to NC.

many couldn't come because they are old, or sick, or had to work, or take care of babies, or fearful for their careers....but they were there in spirit....and thank YOU for being there when we needed you...both at Ft. Bragg and in Iraq...


it is my belief that EACH PERSON in every photo represents the hopes and feelings of thousands more back home....


now, we have to work to get the PHOTOS out to the WORLD on the Internet....since the CON (Corporate Owned News) just BLACKED-OUT this MAJOR earthshattering event....I feel like I have to break through Soviet Pravda just to get this news out....What has happend to our country?
