Two extraordinary young men , Quadlisha Cahir & Tim Gray , swept up in the events of “ 911” and its aftermath. With war on the horizon and inevitable they braved ridicule, isolation and imprisonment to speak out in no uncertain terms about their opposition to injustice and the policies of the US Government. They speak with an eloquence that leaves no doubt as to their commitment and their understanding of the Geo-Political situation that confronts us all. They’re confident, intelligent and articulate. The world is now a more dangerous place with each day bringing more armed conflict between nations and these two soldiers are on the front line in every sense of the word. They represent a growing resistance in the US military. They are not alone whether inside or outside the military. In spite of all the attempts to silence them they have stood tall and strong. They must be heard.

Zwei aussergewöhnliche junge Männer, Quadlisha Cahir und Tim Gray, mitgerissen von den Ereignissen des 11. September und seinen Nachwirkungen. Trotz einem unvermeidlichen Krieg am Horizont haben sie Hohn und Spott, Isolation und Gefaengnis riskiert um in klaren Worten ihre Opposition zu der Ungerechtigkeit und der Politik der US Regierung auszusprechen. Sie reden mit einem Nachdruck, der keinen Zweifel lässt an ihrem Engagement und ihrem Verständnis der geopolitischen Situation die uns alle betrifft. Sie sind selbstbewusst, intelligent und redegewandt. Die Welt ist jetzt ein gefährlicherer Ort geworden und bringt täglich mehr bewaffnete Konflikte zwischen verschiedenen Nationen mit sich und diese beiden Soldaten sind an der Frontlinie im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Sie repräsentieren einen wachsenden Widerstand im US Militär. Sie sind nicht alleine, weder innerhalb noch ausserhalb des Militärs. Trotz aller Versuche sie zum Schweigen zu bringen, sind sie hart und aufrecht geblieben. Man muss sie anhören.

"Uncle Sam"( Tim Gray's Rap on "Hey Joe(George)"

I've had Uncle Sam on my back

for telling him that's that.

I try to tell him what's right

but he doesn’t listen.

He tries to beat and threaten me into submission.

But still I fight and I'm not going to give up

for what I think is right.

I'll fight until the day I die

to tell people the truth about you.

The more you cover-up the more I'll uncover you.

Now its my turn to take a stand and I am.

I’m willing to fight for the rest of my life

to save a couple thousand lives.

I refuse to fight a fight

for something I believe is wrong

for some land, oil, or some uranium.

When you watch your T.V.,

you see what they want you to see.

The lies and untrue facts they use to deceive.

But once we open our eyes and quit being so blind

then we will see the truth behind these lies.

I sing this song for all the soldiers out there

Who fight a war for a government that doesn’t care.

If you live or die it does not matter

as long as we keep these warlords in power.

But once we stand and refuse to fight.

Maybe then people will see the light.

Peace is in the prophecies but we must believe.

That we can make a difference that we can succeed.

I repeat I will not fight for something that is wrong.

Hopefully I save your child’s life by writing this song.
