heroes

american veterans of the wars in iraq and afghanistan lead the largest peace march so far at the 2012 NATO summit.   the march culminates in a rally whereby the veterans introduce themselves, one by one, then hurl their war metals in the direction of the summit, and over a police barricade - returning the metals, so to speak.

an overview from real news:



below, extensive coverage of the veterans' ceremony from democracy now! the video includes veteran scott olsen, who was brutally injured as a peaceful demonstrator by oakland police during the occupy oakland demonstrations.
