IVAW - MN Chapter

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

The Minnesota chapter of Iraq Veterans Against the War.We are looking for people that agree with these three points. (1)-Immediate withdrawal of all occupying forces in Iraq; (2)-Reparations for the destruction and corporate pillaging of Iraq so that ordinary Iraqi people can control their own lives and future; and (3)-Full benefits, adequate healthcare (including mental health), and other supports for returning servicemen and women. To be a friend of this myspace site, you do not need to be a veteran. We are looking for anybody that agrees with the three statements above.
