Moratorium to End the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq

Washington, October 15, 1969 - Demonstrations against Vietnam war


October 15 is an important date in the history of the anti-war movement. On October 15, 1965, the National Coordinating Committee to End the War in Vietnam burned a draft card in public for the first time.

Four years later, on October 15, 1969, there were large protests across America against the Vietnam war organized by the Moratorium to End the War in Vietnam. Millions of people participated, and not just in America, but all over the world. Check out this article by Jeremy Larner called "The Moratorium - A View" that was published at the time in Life Magazine.

George McGovern, who later ran for President in 1972, gave a speech at the demonstration held in Boston on that day in front of 100,000 people, but I can't find the text of his speech on the internet.

Obviously, the Moratorium wasn't successful because the Nixon administration continued the war for four more years. People didn't take the next step, which required millions of people to actually shut down the gears of society, and shut down the government. That type of action is what needs to happen today to end the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. So far, no peace organization has called for such action.

There is an organization/campaign called the War Moratorium that opposes the war in Iraq but they're silent on 9/11 truth so the group is toothless, and won't change the course of history.

Stop The War Coalition
is another anti-war organization. They do a lot of good stuff. This week they held a music festival for Palestine in London. Like other peace organizations, though, they have not publicly called for a new 9/11 investigation.

It is a shame that all these peace activists are trying to end the war without using the weapon of truth. In July I emailed my article "Rethink 9/11: A Letter To Peace Activists" to over 70 peace groups worldwide, and only one responded, saying that they don't have an official position on the 9/11 attacks. I was so disappointed. Maybe they didn't check their emails.

As long as peace groups remain silent about the true origins of the 9/11 attacks their efforts will produce nothing. You can't create an age of universal and permanent peace without attacking the 9/11 lie that serves as the foundation for the wars in the Middle East. The entire argument for the War on Terrorism must be destroyed, and a new 9/11 investigation will do that, which is why it is so important to raise public awareness about the falsity of the official story. A new investigation will identify by name our global civilization's true enemies, the true terrorists.

The enemies of humanity are not radical Muslims, or any kind of extremists, but the state terrorists in America, England, and Israel who are criminally waging wars, oppressing people, and starting needless conflicts in the Middle East, and Central Asia.

We will only reach peace through the truth. I hope all the peace and anti-war organizations realize this now. It is urgent that we protest the wars with the force of reality behind us.

If you continue to buy into the false narrative that militant Muslims attacked America on September 11, 2001 then you can forget about any hope for world peace in our time.
