War Vet Jim Baldridge Speaks Out Against Obama’s Afghan Surge
from: William Hughes
On the evening of Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2009, antiwar activists gathered in a light rain, at the War Memorial Building, in Baltimore, MD, just opposite the City Hall Plaza. The purpose of the demonstration was to protest President Barack Obama’s LBJ-Vietnam-War-like decision to escalate the conflict in Afghanistan. He has ordered 30,000 more U.S. troops to that country, which is well known as a “graveyard of imperial powers.” I talked with Jim Baldridge, who is with the “Veterans for Peace” and the “Vietnam Veterans Against the War.” He spoke out strongly against Obama’s latest war-related conduct. Activists from “The Pledge of Resistance,” “Baltimore United for Peace and Justice,” and the “ANSWER Coalition” were at the rally.
