No More War Rehearsals!

Russia.

Nothing has done more to
advance the possibility of peace in Korea than the
United States ceasing what it calls "war games," but
which might properly be called rehearsals for the
bombing of North Korea.
Yet the United States, NATO, and non-NATO members
Sweden and Finland are conducting the biggest
rehearsal for a war on Russia that has been
seen in decades, and Russia is engaged in a
similarly enormous armed-rehearsal for a war on
Europe. This is madness that must be
ended.
Planning for wars has been proven for many
years to make wars more likely, and to drain resources
away from planning for peace. Nations that plan less for
war engage in less war and generate less hostility and
terrorism.

which we can demonstrate popular
support.
In May
2016, Politico reported on Pentagon testimony
in the U.S. Congress to the effect that Russia had a
superior and threatening military; the article included
an admission from a "senior Pentagon officer" who said:
"These guys want us to believe the Russians are 10 feet
tall. There’s a simpler explanation: The Army is looking
for a purpose, and a bigger chunk of the budget. And the
best way to get that is to paint the Russians as being
able to land in our rear and on both of our flanks at
the same time. What a crock."
We demand an end to war
rehearsals, and a public commitment by every national
government never again to participate in rehearsals for
war.
