Counter-Recruitment Bring Them Home Now Tour

Keeping Our Children Home and Alive War is not the answer to America's problems. America's young men and women have more to offer the world than their bodies as pawns in the global strategy of a small elite of industrial, political, and military planners intoxicated with the idea of controlling the world. If our children are to sacrifice their lives, let it be for a truly noble cause. Military recruitment is now undertaken automatically in high schools (unless informed families "opt out" of it by requesting that their children's names not be given to the military), and even occurs in younger children's play and party places, like Chuck E. Cheese's. "Permanent war"-- the current US government program for "peace and stability" in the world -- can lead only to the soul-searing destruction and physical maming and death of more of our children. Most Americans don't want this, and in a democracy the majority is supposed to rule. A growing movement against the military's automatic recruitment of our young people is gaining momentum.
