This list of veterans against the Iraq War are all military veterans from nations which compose the "Coalition of the Willing" who either:

A) Believe that the Iraq War was illegal, immoral, or unnecessary from the beginning; or

B) Believe that the Iraq War is being waged incompetently or immorally, and have become publicly known as critics of the war.

Note: A number of retired generals and admirals called for Donald Rumsfeld's resignation. This may be grounds for them to be listed in category B.
