What are Vets for Freedom’s primary stances on the Iraq War?
-Vets for Freedom unequivocally believes that premature withdrawal (failure) in Iraq will damage American national security for decades to come. Period.
-Vets for Freedom believes that the War in Iraq is much bigger than party politics and petty, partisan one-upsmanship. Vets for Freedom seeks to reshape the debate in terms of long-term success in Iraq, acting in the best interests of our nation security.
-Vets for Freedom believes that United States decision-makers have a moral obligation to its troops, to the democracy of Iraq (and its people), to the world to fight terror wherever it may be and to fight for freedom in Iraq. Vets for Freedom believes that the missions in Iraq and Afghanistan are worth fighting.
-Vets for Freedom believes that there are achievable, clear objectives that will allow for a gradual drawdown of troop levels as these objectives are met. Vets for Freedom rejects the idea of timelines for troop withdrawal.
-Vets for Freedom understands that supporting the troops and supporting the mission are one and the same. It has become fashionable for some to say they support the troops but not the mission. Vets for Freedom rejects the premise of this statement.
-Vets for Freedom recognizes that Operation Iraq Freedom has suffered significant setbacks due to inadequate planning and management of the Iraq War. While Vets for Freedom demands accountability and corrective action for all mistakes, it does not look to these setbacks as reasons to quit! Vets for Freedom is a forward-looking organization focused on overcoming obstacles and winning the endgame and not harping on past mistakes.
I couldn't have said it any better. The website is well done, explains how you can contribute, and profiles some heroes that the mainstream media has mostly ignored.
