complete. week. when i came home it was amazing i was honestly one of the best ones of my life i thought i was going to pass out i was so happy. there was my wife and my daughter that i had seen her here and it was just almost too good to be true it was going to

. at the same time there was only so wonderful because i'd spent the last year away from them in iraq which was terrible and so when a t.v. camera man came up to me and asked me some questions i told about it's a i'm really glad to be home i'm proud of my service but i am against the war in iraq and i know that some family members and some friends weren't pleased that i said that i thought it was maybe an appropriate time but if every soldier comes home and they just say that they're glad to be home the moans and the the truth about what's going on in iraq. it's. just. that it's puts

a. slight listed things in it maybe the support is absent that states will be in place in the man who could get someone so famous people want to be a one hundred plus the two senior miss you know maybe it was. a. little sleep. in the middle east sun. if. he. pleases. and it. seems like. a. lot of. my whole life and whatever i've tried to do i've tried to unite the will of the spirit of the work of the flesh and that's a spiritual journey myself spirituality which all of us have to. have to deal with

with it call it that or not call it conscience i was never an aft in this to never mind letters because i didn't think of how and then i died after casein have been. killed for about three weeks my daughter ran a crime and you know the last couple of hindsight if we the people let them continue another mother will be i would do that so it's the least you know tell people my story. that's the guys are stuck really are you you know couple so they all go back there it's they're fine for us so we ask for. their house. people i know if i didn't object to some obvious injustice i couldn't live with myself i thought well i can't make a difference unless i'm going to try at least some of the damage on my deathbed and say at least i tried to make it up. when i thought we were getting deployed we live

in ohio so we just threw everything in a band of track so now everything's kind of settled and i'm getting out of the army . and i have to go through all this crap and figure out what's the stuff i keep what's the stuff i turn back to you know. so i can get out without paying for much money. i'm going to do the things. i have back from iraq on july twenty fourth that's the big celebrates its statehood and so you know there's that kinds of fireworks parades and things like that it was a bad day victim who was a soldier as well it sounds when it's really didn't want to look i'd look up and i don't think you'll stick around. i think he called me one night. he said when i come home i have to do something how many of us are spending the year in iraq as a military journalist i saw so much waste going on with u.s.

contractors i saw so many soldiers not having a clear mission they're just kind of wasting their time trying not to get killed for a year and then i talked to some iraqis and they said they wanted the u.s. presence gone you just watch the movie i guess born part fly and he told me to go watch it so i kind of understand some of the feeling seals probably from i don't connection to run cooking you know he was this special you've been protesting war for decades you know and i photo i was following him his footsteps i heard you correctly we are right now horses are just crazy are here and there and there. well there may be adversaries really i just said i'm going to spank him it's hard because protesting is kind of a paradox you need to do something crazy enough to get the media and people to pay attention to you at the same time it can be so crazy that people think you're insane you lose all credibility you kept thinking of these ridiculous ideas.

right. places going on a hunger strike and then finally it came to me i thought i'll walk the length of you thought it would be about five hundred miles i do it takes me about twenty seven days and we're going to publicize it and have people invited to come up with us i think to hopefully speak with people started to bait have a dialogue instead of just. chance you know slogan or waving signs from space and i figured walking it's pretty normal i think people walk every day right to possess are not going to do this you're right up. right on to something there is there were such non-controversial if you ever. look. this is again raised and during the vietnam era when the

peaceniks were a bunch of weird people they were hippies and and into drugs and that kind of stuff and i just didn't want my son to be associated with that kind of thing. he really felt. yeah. except. the read a statement he should have the highest approval ratings for bush and for the war and it's my home state so i think this is the best place to do it and marshall is of utah he said of the predominant piccies he's he looks like a normal utah he's not on the fringe he's not being mean. state of utah as a whole i think is extremely conservative and by that term i mean resistance to change the time still really like george bush and like him as a guy who might have a glass of milk with him or if there are that kind of time i support president bush totally with sending all the people out to fight for our country because that's

what it's all about our support bush. and others because of the republicans. this is because if you remember the turkey and one of the one of the news that her band had one of the new now don't know how good it. can attain are sad eight hear them vog don't know which one it is but one of them shady things liberalism and disease . and i won the fight that we thought about right ted i disagree with name is not does age isn't good net effect cunt disease as can be cured. i mean you're starting out you want to spread the word but you have no budget no influence no connections to the. citizenry here's. a. little.

look at the top. players. load it up. for. it along. the same press releases we've got a website a network types like food invited politicians from both parties i talked to an orthopedic doctor i talked to the physical trainer he publicized that we got permits to walk over protesting the statins tell my family and friends together they all chipped in everyone can see that user towns in your abilities will keep treating this free moment but i also went to local food you'll see. what's the meanest thing anybody's ever said private by your mother it took

a couple of pretty bad going to come along now and we're going to libel them a couple of days on other person all day and look at it like it is very important like the president leave it there every weekend like cleveland. heights and some gang look look look. look look look look look look look look look look look look at all. look look look look look look look look look look look look look look look. but there are still. not completely obama pushing him knocking around her. clothes they haven't been there because no one looks like they are they don't think i'm going to look what i've been on the ground i thought i've heard her. but there are miracles why we're

here. i just think there's some communication i need to take it we can go longer or we don't support the troops. but i wish that you would he make. amy goodman is the host of democracy now it's a really popular news program and she was coming to town to do a book signing she's going to start with three people independently one of them told her hey while you're here in salt lake you should interview this army surgeon and she calls of that night when we were expecting to have the next day we were down and saw a way to interview me goodman is going to announce. today democracy now exposed to army reservist marshall thompson dispensing year in iraq working as a military journalist the son of a former you time they are now plans to walk across his home state the red in the nation to protest for at this point it doesn't matter why we go into the war and

what the partisan politics are about matters is the two soldiers dying every day on a bench and any anyway that we can in this war one day soon as two lights it and i would walk five hundred miles for that i would walk a thousand miles from there. some people said some terrible things not never to my face you know but in the e-mail they got this electronic bravery and they would really say some crazy things one guy wrote in and he said that he hoped that i got run over by a truck i'm going to walk. a lot of people said i just hope i keep walking to mexico or you leave this country went on here. and one gave and said that he wished that i had died in iraq because then i would have been on the ruble. so i was about to go speak at utah state to help promote the walk in right before we go in a phone call from the utah department of transportation and they told me that if i was going to walk they would arrest me for trespassing on the state highway and

suddenly it was political suddenly he was against it suddenly he needed a permit. for no other reason than that it was a peaceful but you. he told me that i would be arrested if i try to look good i shan't believe but what if someone's walking around we don't know where they're walking and you just arrest them and check he says that i can't walk on the sidewalk myself because i have a reason for one side more who would like you to do this could you tell your superiors to do we can't just arbitrarily decide to meet me didn't sharon's policy from other people. i'm. so old enough to keep. but i'm. i'm sorry and i was just you just the previous muslim like what. you're trying to arrest me yeah seriously you're asking. for what you believe in the american press to walk the street hearing way over our heads we

don't know what we're doing luckily my father in law is a lawyer and so so he got in touch with e.c.l. you together they were able to convince the attorney general of the time that. it was in fact my right as a u.s. citizen and an iraq war veteran to walk down the street with i've been arrested. and fishies it took it for a movie and i've been proven kemah backed by underwater walkie talkie so for bring co-parents and then calories like trail mix or getting gator and k. that is a good start. it's the morning of the walking. and everything's pretty much ready i was hoping for good weather if nothing else this walking me through better make me feel like i'm doing my best right so nobody shows up i just washed in the rain all day really thought about was.

not saying. the same planets on the bank. sounds just like running does in the cold coming in behind this funny or whether they're. getting together. the sun is the way things get out there with me and love to get on the sheets without the sound the same spiel that it's a good looking to sing of things. but by the time we are to the point where people are going to walk with me three become stuck with the scum the first test of this crazy stuff is going to work going around that corner and there is a big you can i could imagine there's probably one hundred fifty people which response comic will get that's a lot. that was amazing that has been so good i feel at that moment i thought i

could finally come home everybody. it's just wonderful to see so many people here who want peace thanks so much. tony. i asked her walk up that. the line says something the six then and i say no get up stand up. stand. he said get up stand i'm too good to some sound good love those give up the thought i. never thought i. might just on strong morning and i came down from oregon i heard any goodman on her program mark now say marshall was going to do this loft and so i come from

a long history. in this during the civil rights movement on. vietnam. and saw the income. we're going to true home world around. what more can the world can't survive with with this corps going on and on no this has to happen it's our lives to be. there is a changing tide in america and you're part of it today we're sending a mandate from the people to the government of the united states and to the representatives of utah especially the utah does not support a war we support peace it was a total plan for iraq. because more needs to become real to the american people the military is a war america is not and then needs to change. to

get them here because my my payout is immediate on bad and the way they were affected him. made for. them to. he says that violent childhood in my house and so i hope that this on the place for some sense of unity about finding another way i see as being like gone he's. gone he's walking is walking the see this is a big deal i think it will call attention to the fact that a lot of people feel similar you know similarly to the way he feels deep down inside but maybe they're afraid to voice their opinion even just a small demonstrations going to make the community aware that hey we exist i think it will help people think. when somebody from the u.s. military a soldier. sees what's going on over there and can tell you exactly

that there's no good that's coming out of iraq. it's a people listen to that they listen to a soldier i think his opinion isn't really indicative of what most soldiers think i think most soldiers think this right here you know that. that really we ought to stay the course we've got state we've got to put together we got to fight smarter we got to fight harder but we don't just give up and run away we can't leave these people we commit ourselves now i'd rather not we are for the you know being committed or not we're there now and we need to get committed to the cause but i would much rather die for a cause then for to just die in vain i mean we've got right now all those people died in van all it's time for us to pull up to ourselves up by the bootstraps and. i mean come on wake up america we got it we got to win this thing.

for about a mile or so canyon starting then and this is dog oregon a better. america in honoring his willingness to speak out community about this that's why i came down i know you're on the air. yeah you know the word nightmare. over there i'm sorry don't laugh me don't laugh at me you know whacked because you are and you know when you better start paying attention to president bush and what we want you we are over there. we have found. that distraction and whatever and you know what my loved one came home and you know what you have to get back to work your five children may not support you what on earth are you going prancing around you wanted and why did we want one of the mother more than you when you know what. for the country over there i don't think i had

a mother i prayed for president bush and why he doesn't even start. you when you know what my opinion of this guy walking i think is crazy i think there's an easier way to get a point across the more across the state of utah in the one nine hundred sixty s. to be an activist an anti-war activist was considered generally. sort of disreputable and not really ethical thing to do and i think that's still true today people are. protesting this is this is this is what i hear from people i talk to them if you know the people who protest or if you use their you know their dead ender is there in your pot smokers. or demonstrators protest your ass or not your. estimate of.

a couple. state. space and. she said it's. tough. from this list. to see the. list of. the.

seats. in the military they tell you that the people protesting the war in the smiths rachel tell you the same thing that this one should be some of the. more you learn against the troops what fun is that it's exactly the opposite i mean think about the leaders in the peace sarek actions against the war it's veterans for peace it's military families speak out it's gold star families for peace these are four organizations that are the leaders of the peace movement that are all surrounded by the military part of military families speak out that's true. they're worried that if. i open my door at eight o'clock. and there was a military order. for. it like this.

i realize it a little. bit too many more families are. going to fight. i am. sitting. on the survivor i'm looking good thank you thank you so much yeah i must see both of you i'm. the democratic candidate for congress in the first district i was honored. except the invitation to be part of. my name st gosh down i'm running for u.s. senate for utah and i'm here to support marshall because of what he's going to the great name is larry tanenbaum and so much so that i just got out of the army myself to the army for five years one of the rank of

a sergeant i'm here to support arsenal i've really support the cause enough to leave the people you know people need to be aware of what's going on the world right now great majority of the active duty army supports this and they want more of this they don't want to put it you know send packages or post their gun or car or they want you to do this supporting the troops supporting the change. missions three cretaceous three times four charges free. range from three. three stooges three. mostly blunt you know splitting videos for your media projects a street medio got a hard time.
