Save Your Soul, Your Conscience And Your Sanity.
Stop the bombings!

Author Ann Wright served 29 years in the U.S. Army / Army Reserves and retired as a colonel. She also was a U.S. diplomat for 16 years and served in U.S. embassies in Afghanistan, Grenada, Kyrgyzstan, Micronesia, Mongolia, Nicaragua, Sierra Leone, Somalia and Uzbekistan. She resigned in March 2003 in opposition to the Bush administration’s war on Iraq. She is a member of Veterans For Peace and is the co-author of “Dissent: Voices of Conscience.”

Popular Resistance published this article, directed at active duty personnel in the U.S. Armed Forces, on July 23. It can be read in its entirety at: Stop bombing Iran.
