THEIR VOICES JOIN THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN OUT AGAINST THE WAR IN IRAQ:

Pablo Paredes:
“…if there's anything I could be guilty of, it is my beliefs. I am guilty of believing this war is illegal. I'm guilty of believing war in all forms is immoral and useless, and I am guilty of believing that as a service member I have a duty to refuse to participate in this war because it is illegal."

Captain Ian Fishback:
"Despite my efforts, I have been unable to get clear, consistent answers from my leadership about what constitutes lawful and humane treatment of detainees"
