The Afghanistan War is now the longest war in U.S. history. If an end-date isn’t set, we could be there forever. We want a responsible withdrawal that’s complete no later than December 2011. Can you contribute $15 to help us send a strong message that politicians will understand?

As Pentagon Papers whistle-blower Daniel Ellsberg says in our new video, “It was always a bad year to get out of Vietnam.” We need to make sure the same doesn’t happen with Afghanistan.

If we can raise $10,000.00 by Wednesday, Rethink Afghanistan and our partners at TrueMajority.org will buy a full-page in Politico telling Congress and the President that we want our combat troops out of Afghanistan by December 2011.

Can you contribute $15 to send a strong message to our elected officials that this war has gone on long enough? We’re spending $1 million per troop, per year, and we’ve already lost 1,000 people in Afghanistan. Please donate today, and watch our latest video showing why we need to end this war next year.

Sincerely,
Robert Greenwald & Derrick Crowe
