Founded in July 2004, Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) seeks to "give a voice to the large number of active duty service people and veterans who are against this war, but are under various pressures to remain silent." The organization "supports all those resisting the war, including Conscientious Objectors and others facing military prosecution for their refusal to fight." It calls for "immediate withdrawal of all occupying forces in Iraq"; "reparations for the pillaging and destruction of Iraq so that ordinary Iraqi people can control their own lives and future"; and "full benefits, adequate healthcare (including mental health), and other supports for returning servicemen and women." In Soldiers of Peace we hear from a handful of vets about their experiences first hand.
