DVD-TGT.jpg DVD: The Ground Truth
$19.00
DVD-TGT
Produced & directed by Patricia Foulkrod (2006) • 1 hour 18 minutes.

This film may well be the best feature-length documentary about recently-returned Iraq war veterans yet made. Ideally, show it in conjunction with the film, "Soldiers Speak Out" (28 minutes). Together they make a very persuasive case against war, militarism and sacrifice to a trumped-up false "noble" cause.

YNS.gif Button: Yo No Soy El Army [Spanish for I'm Not An Army of One]
$2.00 $1.00 On Sale!
YNS
(1.25" Button) The Army's latest recruiting pitch is emphatically countered in Spanish. The whole "Army of One" is an advertising catch-phrase designed to appeal to a young man's macho fantasy of personal super-hero delusion. Only the truly courageous will wear this; only those who know they're being lied to by recruiters and who can resist the bait.

PS.gif Button: Peace Sign Graphic
$2.00
PS
(1" Metal Lithographed Button) This is the Original, designed over sixty years ago in 1958 by Gerald Holtom for the English Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Inside the back of this button is a very tiny and very brief few words about the origin of the peace sign.
The last metal lithograph printer in North America went out of business in 2018, We cannot gt any more Metal Lithoigraphed buttons again. We only have a few dpzrn left. These are only available at the retail price. They are now collector's itms, and will increase in value into the foreseeable future.
We also offer the peace sign on a cloissonne jewelry pin with a clutchback secure attachment on the back. The product code for that is JP-PS58.
Both the button and the jewelry pin are union-made in the U.S. Small enough to wear with anything from the most casual to the most formal.

(1.5" Button) These words are attributed to the pacifist A. J. Muste, but he may hve borrowed them from elsewhere. Their point is that the process is the way; an end in itself. This could be quite the conversation-starter at a get-together or Twelve-Step meeting.

(1.5" Button) • It doesn't get any more in-your-face than this one from the build-up to the Gulf War, in the fall of 1990. The point is still valid: it was and still is a rich man's oil war, no matter how they tried to disguise it with lies about yellow cake from Niger and Iraq's hidden (and still unfound) weapons of mass destruction.
