Voices for Creative Nonviolence is initiating a nationwide Peaceable Assembly Campaign which seeks an end to the U.S. wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan and an end to U.S. support of the continued occupation of the Palestinian territories. Beginning in September 2009, and continuing for the next ten months, we will engage in lobbying efforts, urging Representatives and Senators to stop authorizing and funding wars and occupations.
The Folly of the Present Policy
At the zenith of its growth in the last half century, the United States of America has the most powerful military forces in all of human history. But this has come at a terrific cost: extravagant demands for resources, trillions of dollars of national debt and the incalculable destruction, displacement, and death that is caused by war.
Projecting military power around the world is extremely costly for all of us.
