Should have guessed such. The “Vets for Peace” made me wonder.

I think that the Veterans for Peace are an off shoot of the John Kerry veteran supporters,formerly Vietnam Veterans, part of the Peace and Justice League which is also related to Code Pink.

These people have now taken over veterans groups, claiming that they want to help returning Iraq and Afghanistan Vets re-acclimate to society. They are led locally by a guy name, Evan Knappenberger.

Last summer, when Knappenberger was all over our local paper, I was doing some research on him and came across some posts by the Peace and Justice group at Evergreen State College (alma mater of Rachel Corrie), introducing Knappenberger to the WWU Peace and Justice group, referring to Knappenberger as the Cindy Sheehan replacement. So, I now refer to Knappenberger as the new Cindy Sheehan.
