Historic Dem victory in ‘08 over Iraq War. 8yrs of more death let Trump’s “anti-war” rhetoric propel him through the primary & general; a promise he abandoned then lost to Biden. The Gaza War proved consequential in Harris’ loss. Now, another historic swing on anti-war sentiments

Trump is reportedly planning to restart war with Iran after the election. Some of us have been briefed on the war plan. And while I cannot disclose any details, I can say this: the plan is insane. It will not achieve objectives and will set off a new cycle of escalation.

One more approval today, for yet another CO who filed a claim while deployed to the Iran War.

Just this week, two of our clients have received recommendations for approval as Conscientious Objectors; and one returned to their family after filing for CO on an Epic Fury deployment.

"Investigative and emotional, dystopian and comical. For a film about toxic waste and fossil fuel budgets, Earth’s Greatest Enemy has some unexpected reference points. Martin and Prysner name the confrontational humor of Michael Moore, Travis Wilkerson’s experimental political essay An Injury to One, and Ron Fricke’s wordless, music-led Samsara. You can see all three in the way it moves." Great review of Earth's Greatest Enemy for iN Nairobi innairobi.com/earths-greates…

One of the first soldiers to refuse Vietnam service was an Army doctor who said the war was a violation of his hippocratic oath. That spirit is alive and well—the most common job of our CO clients today is military physician. Hear from some of them here:

“Some have been in the military over 10 years, ranks up to Major, attended military academies like West Point… these aren’t people who just stumbled into the military, [but] chose the military as a career because they believed they were serving their country.”

One of our clients, a soldier in the 82nd Airborne, has just been sent home from the Middle East after a successful Conscientious Objector hearing in the combat zone. He trained alongside Pvt. Isabella Gonzales, who was KIA on July 18.
