US Army Vets Join with Afghans for Peace to Lead Antiwar March at Chicago NATO Summit

Sunday’s antiwar march at the NATO summit in Chicago was led by members of Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) and Afghans for Peace. “We’re here to protest NATO and call on all NATO representatives to end this inhumane, illegal, barbaric war against our home country and our people,” says Suraia Sahar, a member of Afghans for Peace, who marched alongside Afghan war veteran Graham Clumpner during the anti-NATO protest in Chicago. “I feel honored standing next to this veteran, Graham, because they’re now, I believe, in my opinion, doing the right thing in speaking out against the occupation and war alongside us today.” Clumpner says, “I reject any affiliation with this war.” More here.
