That's pretty rad.

I honestly felt there was going to be a troop mutiny back a few years ago after we invaded Iraq and there was talk of Iran and Syria. There's been record AWOL's since the war began. I mean, what could send a stronger message to the people if the troops won't fight the war? I know people talk about leaders ending the wars, but the leaders aren't the ones who fight them. It would be amazing if there was a large, collective effort on the part of those who serve to stand up against the complex...but damn, I can understand why they don't. Yet, power in numbers, it could send a strong enough message.

But this is a good step, nonetheless.
