Actress Fonda Plans to Speak Out on Iraq

SANTA FE, N.M. (July 25) - Actress and activist Jane Fonda says she intends to take a cross-country bus tour to call for an end to U.S. military operations in Iraq.
"I can't go into any detail except to say that it's going to be pretty exciting,'' she said.

Fonda said her anti-war tour in March will use a bus that runs on "vegetable oil.'' She will be joined by families of Iraq war veterans and her daughter.

They plan to return to the Santa Fe area, where she was promoting her book, "My Life So Far'' on Saturday.

Prompted by a question from the audience, Fonda said war veterans that she has met on a nationwide book tour have encouraged her to break her silence on the Iraq war.

"I've decided I'm coming out,'' she said.

Hundreds of people in the audience cheered loudly when Fonda announced her intentions to join the anti-Iraq war movement.

"I have not taken a stand on any war since Vietnam,'' she said. "I carry a lot of baggage from that.''

Fonda incited controversy in July 1972 when she was photographed sitting on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun while on a tour of the country to drum up support to end the war.

I'm sure Jane Fonda will have a fresh, new and exciting anti-war perspective. You know, like Bono.

Funny, you would think if so many veterans supported her, her publishing company (or at least her agent) would be getting camera crews interviewing and getting them on TV as positive publicity.  The only veterans I recall in the news when she went on her book-signing tour was the guy who spit in her face.

For the record, I assume the 'treason' comment refers to her Vietnam stunt and not this new Iraq thing, right?  Your comment, Wolfala, isn't clear on that point.

Time for a companion Veterans with Surplus Saliva and Stored Urine Tour.

I'm sure we can arrange a suitable delivery system.

Oy

I guess her ego is too big for her to realize that her supporting the cause does far more harm to the cause than good.

of course, maybe, she just wants a bunch of pissed off people to buy her latest movie DVD release so that they can burn it :)

Take note the article said "Veterans families" not veterans themselves.

Good catch Dreidok. Veterans' families prefer their vets at home, usually.
