“… we need to wake up realize that our real enemies are not in some distant land, they are not people whose names we don’t know and cultures we don’t understand. The enemy is people we know very well and people we can identify. The enemy is a system that wages war when it’s profitable, the enemy is the CEOs who lay us off from our jobs when it’s profitable, it’s the insurance companies who deny us healthcare when it’s profitable, it’s the banks who take away our homes when it’s profitable. Our enemy is not five thousand miles away - they are right here at home. If we organize and fight with our sisters and brothers we can stop this war, we can stop this government, and we can create a better world.” – Mike Prysner (IVAW)
