Oliver Stone: Alan Grayson is a Warrior for Peace

In 1967-1968 I went to Vietnam as a combat infantryman. I wanted to go, I volunteered, and I saw a good deal of action. I didn't understand exactly what I was fighting for. Certainly it took me years to understand. Now I do.

I support Congressman Alan Grayson because he supports peace -- and I'm asking for you to support him.

I thought we had woken up from the nightmare of war, but we didn't. And we kept going back to wars in my lifetime. The Cold War became the War against Terrorism, and it continues. Two wars in Iraq, one in Afghanistan.

The world is becoming more and more militarized. We need clarity. Congressman Grayson speaks out for the people who are trying to analyze and see through this morass. And he is a strong voice, he doesn't back down, he doesn't change his tune. He says it no matter what pressure is brought to bear on him; he sticks to his points, and his guns.

Join our movement for peace by contributing $35 to Rep. Alan Grayson’s re-election campaign by tonight's critical deadline.

He's the kind of guy I like, because he's not just a warrior, but a warrior for peace.

Courage,

Oliver Stone
