Despite the danger of COVID 19, the US Military Continues War Practice in Europe and Pacific and plans for more in 2021

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

By  

During the COVID-19 pandemic, not only will the U.S. military have the largest maritime military maneuvers in the world, with Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) coming to the waters off Hawaii August 17-31, 2020 bringing 26 nations, 25,000 military personnel, up to 50 ships and submarines and hundreds of aircraft in midst of a worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, but the U.S. Army is having a 6,000 person war game in June 2020 in Poland. The State of Hawaii has the most stringent measures to combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus, with a mandatory 14-day quarantine for all persons arriving in Hawaii — returning residents as well as visitors. This quarantine is required until at least June 30, 2020.

Toronto to Berlin: Growing Global Resistance to NATO

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

by Tamara Lorincz

To counter NATO’s 70th anniversary celebration, I launched a monthly protest outside the NATO Asso-ciation of Canada (NAOC) in Toronto in January 2019. I made a commitment to stand with my signs “No to NATO” and “Canada Out of NATO” for one hour once a month for twelve months to oppose this aggressive, nuclear-armed alliance.

Ostsee Militarisierung – RAND Studie Rüstungskontrolle

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Nachfolgend eine äußerst informative und wichtige Mitteilung von Dr. Horst Leps   Zur gegenwärtigen militär- und sicherheitspolitischen Lage in der Ostsee gehört nicht nur, dass die gegnerischen Lager kaum noch miteinander sprechen.

Baltic Sea militarisation – RAND study arms control

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Below extremely useful and important information from Dr. Horst Leps Hamburg   Characteristic of the current military and security situation in the Baltic Sea, is not only the fact that the opposing parties (east and west) hardly speak with each other anymore, but that there are also no initiatives in this direction.   The German Foreign Office in Berlin has supported the American RAND Corporation in a study “A New Approach to Conventional Arms Control in Europe” which has now been … Continue reading →

carcinogenic foam release by US Marines in Okinawa today

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Unbelievable video of  US military poisoning in Okinawa today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNctNl4z2-o

Massive carcinogenic PFAS Foam release from the Marine Corps Air Station Futenma.. There’s nothing the Okinawans can do to stop it. One teaspoon of this foam can poison a city’s drinking water reservoir. It genetically mutates living organisms and it never breaks down. It weakens immune systems during pandemics.  For more: https://www.militarypoisons.org/okinawa.html

Pressemitteilung (21.4.2020): Kritische Studie zur schwedischen Neutralität

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Kritische Studie zur schwedischen Neutralität Die vielbeschworene Neutralität Schwedens ist Gegenstand einer heute bei der Tübinger Informationsstelle Militarisierung (IMI) erschienenen Studie. Die Autorin der Studie „Schwedens Mogelpackung: NATO (und EU) statt Neutralität“, Christina Boger, kommt darin zu dem Ergebnis, dass die Neutralität des Landes allenfalls noch auf dem Papier existiert: „Im Falle Schwedens lässt sich mit Fug und Recht von einer Fassadenneutralität sprechen: Das Land ist inzwischen so eng mit dem Militärbündnis NATO verzahnt, dass man es als inoffizielles Mitglied … Continue reading →

The Amsterdam seminar on Euromilitarism (April 2019)

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

by Jan Schaake (translation Kees Kalkman) The Amsterdam seminar on Euromilitarism Starting from a basal criticism of American imperialism that absorbs the EU member states by way of NATO, or rather from a concern about the American Alleingang and the unreliability as an ally under Trump, there is more and more a louder call to set up a European army and a separate European arms industry, so that ‘Europe’ can take care for its own safety. That call is sometimes … Continue reading →
