Bring Them Home Now is a network of concerned Americans who wish to protect our men and women in uniform. We believe that the proposed war on Iraq is unnecessary and immoral. Under such circumstances the only way to be pro-soldier is to be anti-war.

President Bush equates war against Iraq with preventing terrorism, but absolutely nothing indicates that invading Iraq would make us safer. Quite the opposite.

The atrocity of September 11 should have changed the way we think about national security forever. It did, but we appear to have learned the wrong lesson.

The horrible fact of 19 methodical fanatics armed with box cutters murdering more than 3,000 Americans should have taught us the difference between deterrable and undeterrable enemies.

Suicide bombers are not deterable. Dictators — like Saddam Hussein, who clawed his way to power and wants to keep it — are deterrable.

Al Qaeda has much stronger ties with Pakistani and Saudi government officials than it has with people in the Iraqi government. Bush's war would be a massacre of civilians with no connection to September 11.

Furthermore, if we're concerned about weapons of mass destruction — and we should be — let's not do the one thing that will provoke Sadaam into using them: invade his country.

The slaughter of thousands of Muslims would beget hatred which would beget more violence.

The promise of America harbors a real solution. The spread of prosperity, hope, civil rights, and democracy through peaceful means will win us allies and isolate the terrorists, making their apprehension more likely.

Peace is not naive, and it's not mere moralising: it's sensible and it's patriotic.

We support our troops. That's why we want them kept out of a pointless war that would only serve to make America less safe and less secure.

Bring Them Home NOW.
