“War is a Racket”
Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler
“War is a Racket.” True in 1935, and true in 2023. I highly recommend reading the book entitled “War is a Racket” by General Smedley Butler, a two-time Medal of Honor recipient. In his 1960 farewell address to the nation, US president and another former General, Dwight David Eisenhower, warned of the growing danger of the US MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX (MIC). That danger has continued to grow. Today, 65 cents of every federal tax dollar goes to the US War Machine. That leaves only 35 cents of every tax dollar for everything else. The world is now facing possible human extinction from the growing threats of nuclear war and climate disaster. The US War Machine (MIC) is the elephant in the room fueling both existential threats to life on planet Earth. There seems to be no limit to what the US Empire will do in its attempt to maintain global domination. It is up to “we the people” to step up and act now before it is too late! Never give up! Every action matters!
Defuse Nuclear War & Climate Catastrophe!
‘The World Is at Stake’: Defuse Nuclear War Kicks Off Nationwide Week of Action
Demilitarize Hawaii – one of the most militarized places on the planet.
Compost the Military Industrial Complex (MIC), also labeled the
Military-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-Media-Academia-Think-Tank complex (MICIMATT) by former CIA officer Ray McGovern.
1 . Mourn all victims of violence. 2. Reject violence & war as solutions. 3. Defend civil liberties.
4. Oppose all discrimination: anti-Islamic, anti-Semitic, anti-Hawaiian, anti-Black, anti-Asian, anti-Russian, anti-LGBTQ, etc. 5. Seek peace through peaceful means and work for justice in Hawai`i and around the world.
