Bring Our Troops Home is a newly-formed advocacy organization dedicated to ending the cycle of Endless Wars and the policy of automatic military intervention. <\/p>\n<p> This group of leaders and military veterans believe that supporting America&#8217;s troops is not the same as supporting a foreign policy of endless intervention in other people&#8217;s civil wars.<\/p>\n<p> Toward that end, Bring Our Troops Home is holding a series of meetings to educate and raise awareness surrounding America&#8217;s current foreign policy and defense strategy.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p> Many Americans question the objectives, cost, and accountability of generation-long wars with no end game in sight. Often, defense objectives shift to a nation-building and social science experiment. These meetings will discuss solutions to avoid the repeated mistakes and abrupt changes in military strategy that currently exist.<\/p>\n<p> Please join us and other leaders at the following events:<\/p>\n<p> November 12, 2019<br \/> 6:15 pm &#8211; Reception<br \/> 7:00 pm &#8211; Dinner<br \/> Indian Gaming Association Townhouse<br \/> 224 2nd Street, SE \/ Washington, DC 20003<\/p>\n<p> November 13, 2019<br \/> 8:30am &#8211; 11:00am &#8211; Briefings and Panel Discussions<br \/> National Press Club<br \/> 529 14th Street, NW \/ Washington, DC 20045<\/p>\n<p> Please RSVP at <a href=\"mailto:mary@bringourtroopshome.us\">mary@bringourtroopshome.us<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> Sincerely,<br \/> Dan McKnight, CEO and Founder<br \/> Bring Out Troops Home<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I would like to invite you to take part in a 2-day series of meetings and events in Washington, D.C., on November 12-13, sponsored by Bring Our Troops Home.
