With a war in its 10th year, it’s time to end it.
With violence in Afghanistan still worsening a year after the military push into Marjah—the start of what some call “Obama’s War”—it’s clear military solutions won’t work. It’s time to end the war.
Leave your name, picture, and comment on why you think it’s time to end the war. We will display them on this site.
Then, on 1/26 you will vote for your favorite comments. The top comments will be used to make our next Rethink Afghanistan video and feature the people who posted them.
Press freedom is under attack
As Trump cracks down on political speech, independent media is increasingly necessary.
Truthout produces reporting you won’t see in the mainstream: journalism from the frontlines of global conflict, interviews with grassroots movement leaders, high-quality legal analysis and more.
