[Peace-discuss] IVAW at DNC

[Jenifer Cartwright]

AWARE Friends,
WHAT is the Dems rationale for expecting Iraq to pay for repairs to their own country necessitated by destruction from the US's unprovoked attack(s)?? We broke it, but THEY have to fix it because they have billion$ in surplus (and the US is in hock to China from spending all that money destroying Iraq's country and population)? Please clarify the Dems position for me (you do NOT have to agree w/ their position, just explain their thinking to me). I'm mystified. Thanks!

IVAW members were in Denver on Wednesday leading a march of ten thousand to 
the Democratic National Convention where they delivered a message to the Obama 
camp in a meeting with senior campaign officials. IVAW called on the Democratic

nominee to endorse the three main goals of IVAW: Immediate withdrawal, full 
veterans benefits, and reparations for the Iraqi people.

Jeff Key, a former Marine from Salt Lake City, and Liam Madden, a former marine

from Boston, were then escorted into the convention where they met with Phil 
Carter, head of veterans affairs for the Obama campaign. IVAW is now waiting
for a 
formal response to their request address the delegates from the podium.
