Global Days of Action to #CloseBases

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Military bases, especially foreign ones — current and sought — generate wars. The United States has used its bases in Latin America and the Caribbean to attack Venezuela, while threatening to take over Greenland to build more bases there. Iran is bordered by seven nations with U.S. bases. The nations to the south and east of China are packed with U.S. bases, as is Europe, as is Israel. Africa has foreign bases from several empires. Russia is making more use of … Continue reading →

Μανιφέστο κατά του Παγκόσμιου ΝΑΤΟ και Έκκληση για Κοινή Ασφάλεια

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

Το ΝΑΤΟ είναι ένα αυξανόμενο εμπόδιο για την επίτευξη της παγκόσμιας ειρήνης. Δεν είναι πλέον ο Βόρειος Οργανισμός  Ατλαντικού Συμφώνου. Είναι η μεγαλύτερη στρατιωτική συμμαχία στον κόσμο, με συμμάχους και εταίρους στην Ασία, την Αφρική και τη Λατινική Αμερική. Από το τέλος του Ψυχρού Πολέμου, το ΝΑΤΟ έχει επανεφευρεθεί ως εργαλείο στρατιωτικής δράσης, ψυχολογικού πολέμου και πρόσβασης σε πόρους και αγορές, από τη «διεθνή κοινότητα» και τις παγκόσμιες στρατιωτικές και πολιτικές παρεμβάσεις. Με τις συνεργασίες και τις κοινές επιχειρήσεις, αποτελεί … Continue reading →

Manifesto: No to Global NATO – Yes to Common Security

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

NATO is an increasing obstacle to achieving world peace. It is no longer an organization confined to the North Atlantic: it is the world’s largest military alliance, with allies and partners in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Since the end of the Cold War, NATO has reinvented itself as a tool for military action, psychological warfare, worldwide military and political interventions, and accessing resources and markets; it often claims to undertake these actions on behalf of the “international community”. With … Continue reading →

The investigations uncovered a whole system of bribes obtained by Alliance consultants in exchange for arms and fuel procurement contracts.

THIS 4TH OF JULY: ALL OUT FOR PALESTINE!

 

For 9 months, we have mobilized and organized for Gaza, for Palestine and for a better future for all while the United States has continued to fund, fuel and directly facilitate the genocide on Gaza. As people of conscience, we don’t celebrate the legacy of genocide, colonialism, and slavery that the July 4th “holiday” symbolizes, but continue to struggle for true LIBERATION! 

 

This July 4th, join us on the right side of history! Together, we can forge a new just future where the U.S. no longer war mongers the world over.

Massive escalation by NATO

No to war - no to NATO Network Posted on by

With a deadly poisonous cocktail of self-righteous arrogance, radical ignorance, complete denial of reality and gigantic megalomania, NATO is war-drunk, openly and intentionally heading into a direct confrontation with Russia in full view of everyone. Not only does it want to continue the war on its behalf, it wants to directly confront its own soldiers in Ukraine vis-à-vis Russian soldiers and attack Russia with its own nuclear-capable weapons.
