How are you G.I. ? It seems to me that most of you are poorly informed about the going of the war, to say nothing about a correct explanation of your presence over here. (lemmy.ml)

Nothing is more confused than to be ordered into a war to die or to be maimed for life without the faintest idea of what’s going on.

Defect, G.I. ! It is a very good idea to leave a sinking ship. You know you cannot win this war.

Isn't it clear that the war makers are gambling with your lives, while pocketing huge profits?

G.I., your government has abandoned you.!

They have ordered you to die!

Don’t trust them.

They lied to you, G.I.s, you know you cannot win this war.

Black GI, is it fair to serve more than the white Americans who sent you here? You are only 11 percent of the U.S. population, but among U.S. troops in Vietnam you are 32 percent

American GIs don’t fight this unjust immoral and illegal war of Trump’s.

Eyes Left podcast: A Guide to Getting Out of the US Military (Now) w/ the GI Rights Hotline

It's much easier than the Pentagon wants you to think. Whether you're in the military or know someone who is, this is the definitive guide to walking away. And as Biden's support for genocide spins out into new US wars across the Middle East, from the Red Sea to Iraq, now would be a good time to walk away.

Featuring special guest Maria Santelli, longtime counselor with the GI Rights Hotline, which provides secure, free and expert support to any service member who wants to leave the military.

CALL the hotline anytime at 1-877-447-4487 for advice, or visit them online at https://girightshotline.org/

Maria is Executive Director of the Center on Conscience and War: https://centeronconscience.org/ GI Rights Hotline
