Stop the War in Ukraine! Russian Troops Out! No to Nato Expansion

BFP Team
Thursday, April 14, 2022
Uncategorized

What role is the U.S. playing in the war in Ukraine? How dangerous is this war for those not immediately impacted by the bloodshed? What’s the risk that this could escalate to nuclear war?

Check out these recent articles:
Pentagon Asks Top 8 US Arms Makers to Meet on Ukraine
Ukraine and International Law: Precedents of Permissibility 
The Military Situation in the Ukraine—An Update
Noam Chomsky Warns: Most Dangerous Point in Human History Looming 
Why non-Western countries tend to see Russia’s war very, very differently

Actions you can take:
Save the Date: Saturday May 7 for next internationally coordinated actions to stop the war!
Contact the White House! Call 202-456-1414 or write using this form. Let President Biden know that you believe a ceasefire in Ukraine is urgently needed. Despite the obstacles, US policy should prioritize diplomacy, a rapid withdrawal of Russian troops in a negotiated process, and relief from sanctions.

Write letters to the editor of our local papers. Join “Writers for CODEPINK Congress” for encouragement and support in writing letters to the editor. Letters to the editor can be a powerful way to educate the public and influence public opinion. Keep your letter short and to the point. Write in response to a recently published article. Email marcy@codepink.org to get connected, and email us at bfp@brooklynpeace.org for list of local publications.

If you missed our recent Forum “Russian Invasion of Ukraine and US Policy: Challenges for the Peace Movement,” you can see the full-length recording here or Highlights, Part One.

Check out the recording of Saturday’s "War Is Not Green" event here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jT8rzK5_tQ4 Speakers addressed how militarism and climate change are creating a crisis at the border, COP27, the rising threat of nuclear warfare, the importance of fossil fuels in the war in Ukraine, how the U.S. military contributes to environmental catastrophes, and more.We are living in the midst of a climate and ecological emergency. Instead of responding to this emergency by investing in community needs and transitioning away from fossil fuels, the U.S. government is investing more in militarism to maintain imperial control over a dying planet. Militarization must stop. We cannot allow our government to prioritize power over people any longer.

Just over a year since its last horrific attack on Gaza, the Israeli government launched yet another round of catastrophic bombings, massacring Palestinian families. This is the fifth attack by Israel of this magnitude since it placed Gaza under a crippling blockade of land, air and sea 15 years ago.We’ll hold this 30 min online space each day as long as we need to, to take collective action in solidarity with Gaza. We’ll call our electeds to demand that Israel stop its attacks and end the brutal military siege of Gaza, as well as make demands of other key institutions complicit in this murderous regime.Please share widely and invite others to join. May our heartbreak and rage lead us towards collective action. Register at jvp.org/actionforgaza
