There is going to be a protest in Washington DC by Iraq War Vets called "Winter Solder". It is a repeat of the protest called "Winter Solder" held by Vietnam Vets held in 1971. * http://www.wintersoldier.com/ * What do you think the modern version of the "Winter Solder" will accomplish?

I hope that whatever it achieves it is not the vilification of the US military that we saw after the Vietnam War. Soldiers go where they are sent, it is the Governments that send them and that is where the blame should lie. I make no secret of the fact that I am not a fan of this war on Iraq and the subsequent incompetency caused by poor planning. I believe that we have been lied to by our politicians for their own nefarious reasons. I am passionately pro our service personnel though. If Winter Soldier delivers just one thing, it must be that brave men and women are fighting a war that cannot by justified and cannot be won.
