DISARMAMENT & SECURITY .<\/p>\n

An announcement from the \u00a0international network “No to war – no to NATO”<\/a><\/p>\n

Dear Friends of Peace Around the World,<\/p>\n

We are deeply concerned, and frightened, by the threat of war that permeates the present Global atmosphere.<\/p>\n

The increasingly aggressive and expansionist actions of US\/NATO forces in violation of international law and the sovereign rights of all nations, the raging wars in the Middle East, the burgeoning arms race devastating the national treasuries, the bellicose language replacing diplomatic negotiations, the economic crises facing country after country, and the destruction of the global environment through war and unfettered exploitation, and their impact on public health, have all created crises that, unless checked by popular opposition, can lead to unimaginable catastrophe and war.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\n<\/center><\/p>\n

None of us can stop this madness alone from within our national borders. The global peace forces must come together, mobilizing the millions in our countries, and around the world, for peace. We cannot, and should not, allow our possible differences on other issues to separate us. WE MUST UNITE FOR PEACE!<\/p>\n

On the basis of our shared understanding, we have initiated a\u00a0Global Campaign Against US\/NATO Military Bases, and are inviting you and your organization, recognized as a voice of your people for peace and national sovereignty, to join this new Global Campaign by signing our Global Unity Statement. It is our sincere hope that you will accept this invitation and join in our global effort to oppose all forms of war and aggression against sovereign nations.<\/p>\n

To join the Global Campaign Against US\/NATO Military Bases, please sign our Global Unity Statement:\u00a0NoUSNATOBases.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As the first step toward launching our Global Campaign, we will be holding our first\u00a0International Conference Against US\/NATO Military Bases\u00a0on November 16-18, 2018, in Dublin, Ireland, hosted by the Peace and Neutrality Alliance (PANA). It is our sincere hope that you will help us in mobilizing the maximum level of participation in this International Conference.<\/p>\n

Additional details for the Conference, including registration and the Conference program, will be announced shortly.<\/p>\n

As you are well aware, organizing such a broad-based International Conference requires a great amount of human and financial resources, especially since we are trying to invite experts from across the globe to make presentations.\u00a0It is our sincere hope that you and your organization, based on your sense of solidarity with our common cause for peace, will make a generous donation toward covering the costs of this very important and historic Conference.<\/p>\n
