Dear Jenifer, 

Just last month, Matthew Hoh resigned from his position at the State Department to protest the Obama administration's seeming determination to send tens of thousands more American troops to a disastrous war in Afghanistan. In that short time, Hoh has become one of the smartest, most compelling, articulate, and principled dissenters our country has seen against the failed Afghanistan occupation. 

If the Obama administration doesn't listen to Hoh now, his warnings of the tragedy that lies at the end of the path of escalation will come to haunt our nation in years to come. 

Obama will announce a decision on escalation within weeks. But according to news reports, he is having second thoughts about the wisdom of throwing more American soldiers into a quagmire. 

Now is the time to sign our petition to President Obama to not escalate troops in Afghanistan and share this important message with your friends. 

Yours,

Robert Greenwald
and the Brave New Foundation team
