“This war should have been stopped long ago, but we can’t undo
history. “ said Robert Moore, the executive director of Coalition
for Peace. “We can let the government know that it needs to stop
now.”
During the vigil Moore said “$120 billion a year is being spent each year on 100,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan. This is taking money away from job creation and other urgent needs here at home.”
“We want to keep the soldiers in people’s minds,” Deckhart said. “The ultimate support of our troops is bringing them back home for good.”
