The only true antiwar group in the US who wasn't a front for DNC or other groups like MoveOn .
They are hated by both republicans and democrats who are more loyal to Israel than their own country.

از جنگِ بی‌شکوه
احساسی اندک دارم
اما آن‌چه به تمامی درمی‌یابم
عشقی‌ست که آرزوی همه‌گان است.
از کشمکش‌های دائمی
احساسی اندک دارم
اما آن‌چه به تمامی درمی‌یابم
آرزویِ باهم بودن است.
از جنگ برای آن‌که فقط جانی به در بَرَم
احساسی اندک دارم
اما آن‌چه به تمامی دریافته‌ام
چیزی‌ست که در این بازیِ نهفته.

Today in Labor History September 12, 1918: Eugene V. Debs, Labor leader and socialist, was sentenced to 10 years, under the Sedition Act, for opposing World War I. While in jail he received one million votes for president. In the late 1800s, he led several railroad strikes and helped found the American Railway Union. In 1905, he cofounded the IWW, along with Big Bill Haywood, Mother Jones, Lucy Parsons, James Connolly, and others. He ran for president as a socialist five times in his life.

Sutherland used his rising profile to become a prominent anti-war activist, which made him a target for the US establishment. In 2022, Kiefer Sutherland told The Independent: “Because of my father’s politics, they felt he was a Social Democrat, a socialist, who believed in nationalised healthcare and large government, and those were not necessarily ‘American values’.”
He didn’t let this unwanted attention deter him from speaking out. In 1971, Sutherland starred in Alan Pakula’s thriller Klute opposite Jane Fonda, a fellow anti-war protester with whom he had a two-year affair as his marriage to Douglas fell apart. In 1972, he co-wrote and co-produced an explosive anti-Vietnam-war documentary titled F.T.A., working with Fonda once again.
Sutherland went on to work with the great Italian directors Bernardo Bertolucci (playing a Fascist in 1900 in 1976) and Federico Fellini (as a made-up Lothario in Casanova, also in 1976), but also found time to play a dope-smoking college professor in John Landis’s college comedy Animal House in 1978. The same year, he starred in Philip Kaufman’s sci-fi horror Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
In 2015, at the age of 80, he told the BBC while promoting The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 that he was determined to keep working right to the end. “It’s a passionate endeavor,” said Sutherland. “Retirement for actors is spelt ‘DEATH’.”

The occupation army announces the confiscation of millions of shekels from money exchange shops in the West Bank. According to a statement by the #Israeli police, its Unit 443 raided money exchange shops on suspicion that this money fuels “terrorism,” as it described it. The Monetary Authority issued a statement in which it confirmed that money exchange shops are subject to its supervision and that it It refutes any allegations or pretexts put forward by the occupation authorities to justify its actions in targeting the #Palestinian banking sector and considers that the continued attack on entities subject to the supervision of the Monetary Authority represents an act that violates all international norms, laws, charters and agreements, and aims to undermine confidence in the #Palestinian banking and banking sector.
In the mean time, the cowards and complicit in crime world leaders standing idle and watch Israel destroy the lives of millions in #Gaza and occupied #WestBank without any meaningful reaction and instead working hard to silence and punish those who condemn and expose those crimes.

Titled Voice of a Child, video features images of extensive destruction in Gaza, the life of palestinian children images from and pro-Palestinian/Anti-Wad protests around the world.
It's really sad that YouTube have decided to age restrict the video even though it doesn't have anything violent or graphic to disturb the younger generation, and much less than what they see on TV shows, movies and Video games

A major Israeli news site says Israel’s foreign affairs and diaspora affairs ministries are behind the operation.
As worldwide protest escalates over Israel’s genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, academic freedom and free speech are under all-out attack on university campuses in the United States, not just from university administrations and pro-Israeli groups, but now directly from the highest levels of the Israeli state. In a story that has been largely ignored in the Western press, the Israeli news website Ynetnews, one of the largest media outlets in the country, reported that the Israeli government has launched what appears to be a wide-ranging covert campaign to harass and intimidate students, faculty, and administrators into silence.
According to the report, the Foreign Affairs and the Diaspora Affairs ministries have established a task force to carry out “shaming and pressuring” operations at U.S. universities. The task force, chaired by Foreign Minister Eli Cohen and led by senior government officials, drew up a multifaceted “action plan,” according to Ynetnews, involving political and psychological operations against its critics. The plan aims at “inflicting economic and employment consequences on antisemitic [read: pro-Palestinian/anti-genocide] students and compelling universities to distance them from their campuses.” The plan specifies that actions taken “should not have the signature of the State of Israel on it.”

The antiwar movement may differ on whether to call February 24 an invasion, an incursion, or a special military operation to protect ethnic Russian regions of Ukraine under attack. But unity has been forged that the solution to the conflict is a negotiated settlement and that the US/NATO project of “winning” the war is a threat to world peace.

People act like the antiwar movement in the 70s was a progressive and anti imperialist movement.
But only a small fraction of the movement were truly antiwar and against criminal actions of the US.
Just like the Antiwar movement during and after Iraq invasion that almost completely died when Obama became president, the Antiwar actions were all part of the ridiculous, stupid and disgusting 2 party politics of the country and those who were loud under Bush and Trump, turned into war mongering supporters of Obama and Biden policies.
It's really sad to see people not having any moral grounds and their compass changes after who the freaking president is.
I'm sorry I'm ranting, but I just so disgusted by silence and compliance of the majority of the liberal and "centrists" people in almost all western countries.
EDITORIAL NOTE: Further reason to use FOSS4G? This report is uncorroborated, but seems to square with Environmental Systems Research Institute Inc's policies.
Throwaway account--trying to post in a few subs because I think this is important.
For those who don't know, ESRI creates Geographic Information Systems software. This software is used for making maps and spatial analysis, among other things. If you work in GIS, or use maps, you've probably used this software. Now for the important part.
On Monday, December 11, 2023, an employee posted in the HR Teams channel to ask the question: "Is the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) using ArcGIS to help with the current bombings in Gaza?" The employee went on to explain that they had reached out to HR with this question and was told that "the specific information you are requesting is not going to be supplied to you. We would need permission from a distributor or customer to provide specific information about products sold or used and we don't have said permission."
The employee went on to explain that they thought it was important for ESRI employees to know this information. The employee also inquired if others were concerned and wanted answers. The employee also pointed out that ESRI had taken a political stand previously with regard to Ukraine and Russia and provided a screenshot of an official ESRI statement that said: "Esri stands in solidarity with Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. Our software is not and will not be deployed in any military or intel organization in Russia. Esri distributor CIS is curtailing sales in Russia. We are actively supporting the humanitarian efforts in Ukraine, and we continue to work with many European countries, as well as NATO, the United Nations, and the US State Department. Esri will do everything we can to help Ukraine and its people."
The post garnered a lot of attention and support from other employees. Several responded that they were concerned that ESRI is providing software for a genocide. The specific word "genocide" was used a few times. There was one dissenting comment.
On Wednesday, December 20, 2023, another employee commented on the thread to say that the original poster had resigned on Friday, December 15, 2023, due to "lack of answers from the administration."
Later that day, an email was sent out about a new policy with regard to the digital environment and appropriate business conduct.
Today, December 21, 2023, the entire thread and all of the responses were deleted, presumably by HR, since they manage the channel. An HR team member replied and said that "there were many posts involving sensitive topics and comments that were not appropriate for a business setting. I have received numerous inquiries and employees stating that they feel uncomfortable with the messaging and tone in these posts." Meanwhile, a separate post in the same channel, made on October 15, 2023, titled "Condemning the terrorist attacks in Israel" stayed up. It would seem that ESRI is not concerned with the discomfort of their Palestinian employees.
I am an ESRI employee and I am furious. ESRI talks about their commitment to making the world a better place while shutting down conversations by their employees about genocide. I don't think it's a secret that ESRI operates this way, but I wanted to share what's happening on the inside. Many of us are angry and we won't be silenced.

Quakers in Britain have joined other faith and civil society groups calling on the Russian and Ukrainian governments to respect the rights of conscientious objectors.

(From the Article [Linked]): As the founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth, I’ve been collecting architects and engineers for the last 18 years. 3,600 in all. But I’ve never come across a structural engineer who’s also a professor of physics and an explosion expert - and who was willing to speak the truth about 9/11. Well we just found one in Germany.
Maximillian Rupert, professor at the Technical University of Ingolstadt, came out of the 9/11 closet this month on Markus Langemann’s public platform “Club der Klaren Worte” — “Club of Clear Words.”
My own editorial: Many experts have questioned the official narrative of 911, which has served as the "casus belli" for the most destructive series of wars in the 21st century. None of them, however, have the specific military technical qualifications and resume of Dr. Rupert. That he supports dissenters against the state-sponsored terroristic conspiracy is remarkable; even more remarkable is his confession and his explanation of why he has remained silent for so long.

Dozens of #remembrance events involving white poppies took place around the UK on Remembrance Day and Remembrance Sunday - the highest number in at least five years.
There were white poppy events in Bath, Bradford, Brighton, Edinburgh, Ipswich, Leamington Spa, Leeds, Oxford, Peterborough and many other places. In several towns and cities, such as Leicester, white poppies have become an established part of official remembrance events.
The National Alternative Remembrance Ceremony in London had the highest turnout in recent years, with around 200 people gathering in front of the memorial stone for #ConscientiousObjectors in Tavistock Square.
Those attending heard powerful speeches by Pat Gaffney from Pax Christi and Richard Kuper from Jews for Justice for Palestinians. Isabel Kelly read a deeply moving message of grief and hope from the Parents Circle – Families Forum, a joint Israeli-Palestinian organisation of families who have lost loved ones to the ongoing conflict.
Her story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandra_Skochilenko
On 16 November 2023 she was sentenced, in a St. #Petersburg court, to seven years of imprisonment for replacing supermarket price tags with #antiwar slogans in 2022. In her final statement to the #court, before the verdict was announced, she told the presiding judge: "Your honour, you have a unique opportunity to show an example to society with your verdict ... You can show how to resolve conflict with the help of words and compassion."
Anyone who thinks that Russia is an evil #autocracy should know that even in the West, people who tell horrible truths are locked away, like Julian #Assange.
