Tuesday, March 11, 2008 — We just got this message from Tom Jackson, at Joe Public Films:
“Last weekend I had the honor and privilege to march with (and film) the Philadelphia chapter of Iraq Veterans Against the War from Constitution Hall in downtown Philadelphia, to Valley Forge. The group wanted to draw attention to the upcoming Winter Soldier: Iraq & Afghanistan events coming up this weekend in and around DC. The events run from March 13-16, and include veterans from the Iraq conflict, as well as active duty soldiers.”
“This is the first of a series of short videos for IVAW. This one focuses on Winter Soldier. Future shorts will focus on other major points that IVAW wants to bring to the people of this country. Please have a look, [go to YouTube to] make a comment if you wish, give a rating, and if you feel so inspired, please send the link on to as many people as you can. For those of us who want to see an end to the occupation in Iraq, and see our troops come home from there, it is essential to get the message of IVAW out as far and wide as possible! Thanks in advance for your help!”
