By David Swanson, World BEYOND War, August 29, 2024
Remarks on Canada-Wide Peace & Justice Network webinar on August 28, 2024
When NATO gathered in Washington D.C. several weeks ago, we held a counter-summit and a rally, did a bunch of interviews, wrote a bunch of articles, etc. All the videos and reports are at nonatoyespeace.org to watch and read at your convenience.

While party platforms are usually full of insincere popular promises, this year’s from the Democrats spits in the face of the majority of Democrats who want peace.

By David Swanson, World BEYOND War, August 11, 2024
On August 10, Military Times published an article demanding that NATO support the use of cluster bombs, bombs that litter the ground with colorful little bomblets that are very attractive to children during the last moments of those children’s lives or of their possession of various limbs or body parts.
The article was written by two folksy guys referred to in the credits as “John and Dan.” John Nagl is employed by the U.S. Army War College
