The Cost of War
"See a running tally of the cost of the Iraq war by the National Priorities Project. See the breakdown of how much your state, and even your county, is paying for the War in Iraq"
The Granny Peace Brigade
"When a group of 18 women ages 59 to 91, many of them grandmothers, tried to enlist in the United States military on October 17, 2005, The Granny Peace Brigade was born. They asked to enlist in order to replace grandchildren who had been deployed in Iraq unnecessarily. They were denied access and were arrested and jailed. After a six-day trial, they were acquitted of all charges for their non-violent protest. That was the just beginning."
Voices for Creative Nonviolence
"Kathy Kelly, nominated several times for the Nobel Peace Prize, heads up this organization whose purpose is to nonviolently resist war. Members of Voices for Creative Nonviolence have focused on Iraq since the 1990’s, going as far as to fly into Iraq before various bombing campaigns to be in solidarity with innocent civilians who are unable to flee violence and who most often bear the brunt of war."

School of Americas
SOA Watch
Lee este articulo en español.
| "SOA Watch is an independent organization that seeks to close the US Army School of the Americas, under whatever name it is called, through vigils and fasts, demonstrations and nonviolent protest, as well as media and legislative work. On November 16, 1989, six Jesuit priests, their co-worker and her teenage daughter were massacred in El Salvador. A U.S. Congressional Task Force reported that those responsible were trained at the U.S. Army School of the Americas (SOA) at Ft. Benning, Georgia. In 1990 SOA Watch began in a tiny apartment outside the main gate of Ft. Benning. While starting with a small group, SOA Watch quickly drew upon the knowledge and experience of many in the U.S. who had worked with the people of Latin America in the 1970's and 80's. Today, the SOA Watch movement is a large, diverse, grassroots movement rooted in solidarity with the people of Latin America. The goal of SOA Watch is to close the SOA and to change U.S. foreign policy in Latin America by educating the public, lobbying Congress and participating in creative, nonviolent resistance. The Pentagon has responded to the growing movement and Congress' near closure of the SOA with a PR campaign to give the SOA a new image. In an attempt to disassociate the school with its horrific past, the SOA was renamed the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation in January of 2001." |
