SAN FRANCISCO — Anti-war veterans group Iraq Veterans Against The War announced today that they would be changing their name. In a combined protest and press conference, IVAW leaders stressed the importance of the name change and how it will help further their goals.

IVAW Spokesman Roger Miller, an Army veteran, believes that the name change will mark a new era for the organization.

"When this first started, we wanted to stop the Iraq war. Now that it's basically over, we either needed to change our name or get actual jobs."

In a dramatic unveiling on San Francisco's Market Street, IVAW members unveiled a new banner and showed off their new look. Their new name, "War Veterans (and/or Non-Veterans) Against All Wars, Wall Street, Big Banks, Globalization, Corporations, The 1%, and for the Furthering of Socialist Objectives", took up an an entire 20 foot length of banner.
