"Appeal for Redress"
Story aired: Monday, April 09, 2007



More than 1,800 members of the armed forces, have signed a statement called "Appeal for Redress From the War in Iraq," which calls for U.S. troops to leave the country.

Boston University professor Andrew Bacevich says this new "soldiers lobby" signals a dangerous movement.

The retired Army colonel's essay warning of the consequences of more "politically assertive" armed forces personnel appears in the May issue of the Atlantic Monthly.
