Veterans Day is traditionally a time to honor the fallen and those who have served in the US military. We're breaking with tradition, this year, to honor those who have yet to fight, but will almost certainly make the ultimate sacrifice – unless we can stop the next war before it starts.

But we can't do that without your help. For 18 years we've been debunking the War Party's lies – with the invaluable assistance of our loyal readers and supporters. We couldn't have done it without you – and we still can't. That's why we're making this appeal for your financial help to keep this web site going.

The Veterans of Future Wars – who may yet be spared – will thank you for your tax-deductible donation to Antiwar.com. Please make your contribution today!

Contributors of $100 will receive Patrick Cockburn's latest book, The Jihadis Return. To take advantage of this offer, email here.
