Ava Lowery: How This Must End
January 22nd, 2007
Young director Ava Lowery has created a video to encourage people to attend the antiwar rally this Saturday in Washington, D.C. In her YouTube description she says:
Over 3,046 U.S. Troops have died in Iraq. Thousands more have been wounded and tens of thousands of Iraqis have been killed. We already know how this war must end. Now it’s time for us to stand up and do something! Join us on the streets of DC this Saturday, January 27th, to tell the new Congress: Act NOW to bring the troops home! We the people have the power to control our country’s path. It’s up to use to use that power.
How This Must End
Remember as you watch it that there are hundreds of thousands of Iraqi scenes like the American ones shown here.

I’m sure if Lowery lived in NYC on 9/11 and lost a friend or family member she would probably feel differently. I know this young generation feels invincible as far as any threats to them but remember their are young men and women in Iraq who need our support. Everyone has their opinion about violence but keeping these opinions off the streets help the morale of this country during this very tense time. All it shows the rest of the world is how not together we are as a country which makes us more vulnerable to more attacks. If we all form together to fight these enemies our war would have probably ended by now….
