Iraq War Resisters to Get Boost from Veterans Group


Members of a leading Iraq war veterans' organization voted this weekend to launch a campaign encouraging U.S. troops to refuse to fight.

The decision was made at the group's annual membership meeting, held this weekend in Saint Louis, Missouri alongside the annual convention of the Veterans for Peace organization.

At least 3,707 U.S. soldiers have died since the Iraq war began four years ago. Some 20 percent of soldiers have suffered brain trauma, spinal injuries or amputations; another 20 percent have suffered other major injuries such as blindness, partial blindness or deafness, and serious burns.

Hundreds of thousands have already submitted disability claims with the United States Veterans Administration.
