US War Veterans Toss Medals Back at NATO

In the shadow of the NATO summit, under the watchful eyes of a phalanx of full-black-clad riot police, dozens of former servicemen and women in uniform, veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, threw away their medals, with apologies.

“I have only one word for this global war on terrorism decoration, and that is shame.” 

"Instead of liberating the people, I was liberating their oil fields." 

"This is a rejection of the so-called war on terror."
