Sir No Sir! 12 Minute Trailer

"In the 1960's an anti-war movement emerged that altered the course of history. This movement didn't take place on college campuses, but in barracks and on aircraft carriers. It flourished in army stockades, navy brigs and in the dingy towns that surround military bases. It penetrated elite military colleges like West Point. And it spread throughout the battlefields of Vietnam. It was a movement no one expected, least of all those in it. Hundreds went to prison and thousands into exile. And by 1971 it had, in the words of one colonel, infested the entire armed services. Yet today few people know about the GI movement against the war in Vietnam.

Conseratvies create bogus myths so they will not have to deal with issues where they are in the wrong...

Soldiers returned from Vietnam to US Air bases...like Travis AFB in California...according to RIght Wing mythology...they were greeted by sandal wearing hippies who spat on them. Since when where peace loving hippes allowed on air force bases to greet the troops?

You clearly did not watch the documentary. This is an URBAN LEGEND exposed (with strong evidence) in the film. In fact, soldiers came back to military bases where it was impossible for protesters to get close enough to spit. Every protest I was in included vets and civilians who had the utmost respect for soldiers--our family and friends--and did not want to see their lives "used stupidly or carelessly or for unworthy ends" as Marine Tobias Wolff wrote in his Vietnam memoir "In Pharoah's Army."

i wish they(the robber barons) would bring back the draft...no one would go...FTA...

[david1austin]

what a wonderful demonstration of the power of solidarity, and a message of hope for a nation lost to the momentum of aggression

I recommend you see the complete documentary

search YouTube for "Sir, No Sir! (1 de 9)" to get the first of nine parts

Bc it is his farking life. He was drafted and was asked to kill gooky strangers. Oh my, how he sat there and watch a VC bled to death on that rice field, flesh and guts and yelow fluid rushed out from wounds yet still struggle to crawl out of that dung hole so he can died in dignity. No, the GI is not suppose to responsible for that. It's those losers depressive H.O. that lost the war!! And on that rice field, monsoon rains can wash it all away....guilt, hate, depression of the minds.

@Profusion55 And 9/11 ??? Really, what kind of a deaf dumb and blind man are you !!! The US was meddling and murdering overseas long before it was hit back with 9/11. What kind of a stupid justification is that !!! Don't you know about all the killing the USA has done since the second world war in countries that have not done a single thing to the USA ??? The USA has invaded and murdered innocents in countries that didn't even have an army (Panama), and you pull a 9/11 out of your arse ???

[yourshortmemory]

@pablo19852000 And rights are deteriorating pretty quickly in police state USA, along with jobs because of greedy corporations looking for cheap labour, and huge military industrial complex spending, so, you're stupid.

[yourshortmemory]

@pablo19852000 You said "we just sitting ducks for others to place upon us their will" if you disarm the army. So that obviously means the US are imposing their will on anyone they like since their army is bigger than anyone elses, which is the damn truth. But, I don't think that is what you intended to say, so, your reasoning is stupid. cobrachoppergirl didn't even say anywhere to get rid of army or police so you're stupid.

[yourshortmemory]

@Profusion55 You poor naive baby, or, you stupid brainwashed fuck. The military is not dismantling any terrorists because the US military are the terrorists (controlled by the corrupt politicians), and they are aiding in the installation of corrupt puppet governments in resource rich countries so the USA can rape those sovereign nations of their riches. In this day and age of almost unlimited information, how can you still beleive the crap that's spewed in the mainstream media !!!!

[Profusion55]

@cobrachoppergirl. You dumb fuck!! The military is controlled by politicians in the end, so blame them. Second, what our military is doing is dismantling terrorist organizations on foreign soil. We are on good terms with Afghanistan's government, obviously not the assholes trying to attack America. Have you forgotten 9/11?!
