People’s Mobilization to Stop the US War Machine Save the Planet

20/09/2019 - 23/09/2019

People’s Mobilization to Stop the US War Machine Save the Planet

INTERNATIONAL PEACE & CLIMATE JUSTICE WEEKEND!

The US War Machine is out of control, causing chaos throughout the world and fueling the climate crisis. People power will stop it. That’s why we are organizing a series of actions in New York City from September 20 to 23 while the United Nations General Assembly meets.

When all of the world leaders gather, we will say we’ve had enough of the US War Machine.

We demand the US be held accountable for its lawlessness. It’s time for the US government to obey the United Nations Charter by stopping regime change operations, ending the use of unilateral coercive measures (aka sanctions) and ceasing military threats and attacks.

We demand the US sign the nuclear weapons ban treaty, rejoin the Iran nuclear and Paris climate agreements, disband NATO and close bases and outposts around the world.

We demand an immediate transition to a peace economy that uses our resources to meet human needs and protect the planet.
