Protest Convergence of War Criminals on NYC, September 2011 PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 18 August 2011 15:50

By Debra Sweet 

With the 10th anniversary of 9/11, NYC will be the destination of choice for major US war criminals, including Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and John Yoo.
 
These are the people who brought us torture, indefinite detention, and trillion-dollar wars that have claimed countless Afghani, Iraqi and US lives. They should be indicted and prosecuted for their crimes, not honored as speakers and special guests at symposia, memorials and fancy dinners. The brutality of the “war on terror”and the US wars of aggression are condemned both by the court of global public opinion and by international law, including the Geneva Conventions and the Convention against Torture.
 
People of conscience must insist on accountability for the actions of U.S. officials.

Why Do You Donate?

“The World Can’t Wait is my favorite organization because it fights for human rights wherever a fight is needed. I particularly appreciate its work to counter the vicious attacks on women’s rights to birth control and abortion. I am also an avid supporter of its fight to end torture and the wars through the We Are Not Your Soldiers tour and visible, mass resistance.”
A high school student. Northern CA

“The World Can’t Wait, since its founding, has faithfully resisted U.S. crimes of torture, illegal wars, and indefinite detention. It was on the street the day after the 2008 election, when many were sure that Obama would work a miracle, demanding No More Torture, No More War No Matter Who You Voted For. A grandmother of three, I want to be able to answer my children and grandchildren when they ask me why I allowed these crimes in the U.S. with evidence of my actions to stop them. Contributing to World Can’t Wait is one of those actions.”
Brooklyn, NY

“I’m sending you money because you guys are relentless. I mean that in a good way. You’re relentless critics of the government, and you’re relentless in trying to get the people to wake up. Thanks!”
Rhode Island
