Courage to Resist. March 9, 2016
Courage to Resist is proud to once again support the 2nd annual Shut Down Creech, coming up on March 27-April 2 at Creech Air Force Base, Indian Springs, to demand the end of killer drone operations.
Veterans for Peace states, “Last year, nearly 150 activists joined us from 20 different states across the country, including over 50 veterans.
We know that under President Obama, the drone wars have continued to escalate, and this election year, we must take an even bigger stand against these killing machines. We must educate the public so they understand the fallacy that these machines keep us ‘safer’. We know that drones create more terrorists, through killing innocent civilians and terrorizing entire communities.”
Join daily vigils during rush hour commute, teach-ins, workshops. Also happening that week, Veterans for Peace will sponsor a symposium on Drone Warfare, Inside Drone Warfare: Perspectives of Whistleblowers, Families of Drone Victims and Their Lawyers.
VFP members will also attempt to deliver a letter to drone operators and base personnel, informing them of their options and welcoming them to our community of veterans and allies who are opposed to endless war. View the complete program schedule here.
Join us this spring in an historical united front at Creech Air Force Base, calling for an end to the violence and injustice inherent in U.S. global terrorism, endless wars and drone killings.
“In a society like the US where virtually every foreign intervention, everywhere, is grotesquely illegal and criminal, the most effective resistance is from the soldiers themselves…”
As a german living in Uruguay I still feel guilty for millions of death und wounded both military and civilians victims caused by german nazi world war II.
Therefore I strongly believe that never there should be any military actions from Germany or german territory against whomever.
Military drone warfare operation from US base in Germany must be stopped immediately
God bless you guys and our comrade sisters. I wish I could come to the Creech thing. Wish I could send some financial support. Maybe at pay day. I am wholeheartedly behind your efforts. Myself, I am planning a move to Cuba, where I can protest the Guantanamo prison and military base (which is on their land illegally). I was a conscientious objector in 1973, but got booted out with a U.D.
We don’t need more killing machines. End all warfare!
Dear Courage to Resist,
I’m Nancy from Argentina. I’ve known you for a long time now. I just wish to tell you I’m grateful for all you do; for your hard work and your courage to tell the truth no matter what. I’m proud of Bradley (Chelsea) Manning. She’s a blessing for humanity.
