American Wars and Self-Decline
American Wars and Self-Decline
The United States already spends more on the military than the next 10 countries combined.

Does the US government actually oppose dictatorships and champion democracy around the world?
In Case You Missed It the US Provides Military Assistance to 73 Percent of World’s Dictatorships http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/49647.htm
The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists Doomsday Clock stands at two minutes before midnight. Midnight is the hour of global nuclear destruction. We all have a voice. Future generations are waiting for us to speak out now for global nuclear disarmament. It’s not just about North Korea. The USA, the world’s largest nuclear armed nation, needs to lead the way by example.

Stop RIMPAC Bombing of Hawaii!
From June 27 until Aug.2, 2018 Some 26 nations (including Israel for the first time), 47 surface ships, five submarines, 18 national land forces, and more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are expected to participate in the biennial RIMPAC war games. RIMPAC includes the bombing and shelling of the 133,000-acre military Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA) in the middle of Hawaii island.
Hawaii Island is undergoing tremendous trauma from Kilauea Volcano lava flows. Thousands of people have been displaced from their homes, farms, and businesses. We do not need to add to the trauma by RIMPAC bombing of our island home. We ask that the bombing be stopped immediately.
Mayor Harry Kim has said due to the Kilauea eruption “needs are greater than we’ve ever seen.” If the military wants to truly protect the people of Hawaii island, forgo RIMPAC 2018 and use the money for housing and other lava relief efforts.
If you would like to add your name to this statement for public release to the news media and government officials, please email Donna Grabow <meridianwoman@yahoo.com> by June 18, 2018
U.S. President Donald Trump just cancelled U.S. South Korea joint military exercises and labeled them “provocative and expensive.” The same can be said about RIMPAC!
PROTEST RIMPAC
A peaceful protest of RIMPAC 2018 is scheduled for Saturday, June 30, 2018 at the Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA) main gate from 10AM-12 noon. A RIMPAC protest is also schedule on Oahu at Pearl Harbor at the same time and date.
