    UUAA Veterans for Peace Annual Report 2020-2021 Group Leader: Michael Muha UUAA Veterans for Peace is part of a larger organization, Veterans for Peace, which is a global organization of Military Veterans and allies whose collective efforts are to build a culture of peace by using our experiences and lifting our voices. We inform the public of the true causes of war and the enormous costs of wars (including physical, psychological, emotional, environmental), with an obligation to heal the wounds of wars. Our network is comprised of over 140 chapters worldwide whose work includes: educating the public, advocating for a dismantling of the war economy, providing services that assist veterans and victims of war, and most significantly, working to end all wars. We didn’t do what we anticipated because of not having the usual social contact. Along with our parent organization, Veterans for Peace Chapter 93, accomplished the following: • Martin Luther King Day presentations EMU, UM, and Ann Arbor Public Library, with the theme “Beyond Militarism: Where Do We Go From Here?” (https://aadl.org/node/575155) • Ann Arbor’s Veterans Park on Veterans Day, and Detroit’s Grand Circus Park on July 4, erected a memorial for military members from Michigan killed in Iraq and Afghanistan - to remind people of the costs of war • Awarded scholarships to student who will pursue studies in a Peace Studies program or other program that actively promotes the study of global conflict resolution or issues of peace and justice. • To fund our scholarships, hosted a virtual John Lennon Birthday Concert with local musicians, and created a CD: https://www.vfp93.org/john-lennon-concert-cd We definitely relate to the Sixth Principle: The goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all, as well as the First Principle: The inherent worth and dignity of every person, and the Seventh Principle: Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

  • VVAW's December 2005 Letter
    VIETNAM VETERANS AGAINST THE WAR, INC PO Box 408594, Chicago, IL 60640 - (773) 276-4189 www.vvaw.org [email protected] Dear Friend of Vietnam Veterans Against the War, What a difference a year makes! Not only have the American people turned against the war, but Vietnam Veterans Against the War has been able to make a bigger contribution to changing people’s minds about the war than ever before. At our late October National Meeting, the best attended in many, many years, we resolved to further deepen our participation in the national anti-war movement. We heard local representatives talk about their speaking to high school classes, raising funds for the My Lai Peace Park in Vietnam, representing veterans at local anti-war demonstrations, offering personal support to returning Iraq vets, attending local vigils on the night of the 2000th U.S military death in the Iraq war, and engaging in civil disobedience at the White House. Ray Parrish, our military counselor, regularly makes a real difference in the lives of individual veter- ans and GI’s. Ray tells me that some vets who call him want to deal with their Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder symptoms in a political rather than a clinical setting. One vet he talked to had done two tours in Iraq. After the first tour, John didn’t really want to go back, but he didn’t talk to anyone in the GI counsel- ing movement because he was hearing from military commanders that people who opposed the war didn’t support the troops. He told Ray that, between tours, “he and Johnny Walker became best friends.” John got out of the military after his second tour.

  • Voices of Conscience: Antiwar Opposition in the Military
    Voices of Conscience: Antiwar Opposition in the Military Photo: Paul Richards (Estuary Press) May 22-24, 2018 Welcome Welcome to the “Voices of Conscience” conference, the first major academic conference ever held on military antiwar movements. Never before have scholarly and activist communities come together at a major academic institution to probe the impact of soldier and veterans’ antiwar movements and their importance for the strategy of peace. This gathering is historic in another sense. It takes place 50 years after the Vietnam War, a war in which many of us fought and resisted, and 15 years since the invasion of Iraq when others of us spoke out for peace. We gather as the United States continues an endless “war on terror,” conducting combat support operations in 14 countries and launching air strikes in seven, all without constitutional authority and with few citizens aware or concerned. We will address many vital questions during this conference. What was the role of the GI and veterans’ movement in helping bring an end to the U.S. war in Vietnam? How did the collapse of the armed forces affect the Pentagon’s ability to continue waging war? What was the relationship between the military and civilian antiwar movements? How was the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq affected by antiwar opposition? How did dissent within the ranks affect public opinion on ending the war in Vietnam? What can veterans and military service members do today to counter militarism and war and build support for peace? The historic campaigns we examine in this conference are linked to the movements of today, especially to the students and community activists organizing against the scourge of gun violence in our schools and on our streets, just as we march to prevent war and armed violence abroad.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the Veterans for Peace UK (INR0067)
    Written evidence submitted by the Veterans for Peace UK (INR0067) Introduction to Veterans for Peace UK Veterans for Peace UK (VFP UK) was founded in London in 2011. Veterans For Peace UK is a voluntary and politically independent ex-services organisation of men and women who have served in conflicts from World War 2 through to Afghanistan. As a result of our collective experiences we firmly believe that “War is not the solution to the problems we face in the 21st century”. We are not a pacifist organisation; we accept the inherent right of self-defence in response to an armed attack. We work to influence the foreign and defence policy of the UK, for the larger purpose of world peace. Summary Given that many of the institutions, legal frameworks and skills necessary to increase international understanding and facilitate global co-operation are already in place, our submission focuses on some foreign policy areas where we believe that more effective use could be made of these existing tools. It is vital to strengthen such resources if we are to achieve peaceful co-existence. The starting point for this Review must be a careful re- evaluation of what is needed to provide genuine and sustainable security. The following are our responses to some of the questions listed in your call for evidence. THE PROCESS OF THE INTEGRATED REVIEW The efficacy of the Review’s process 1. ‘What is Security?’ At present there is no established or agreed answer across government departments and policy makers. What does the state want to ‘secure’? From what, from whom and who for? Once these questions are answered we can then determine how we use our resources: human, industrial, technological, financial, to achieve a secure future and incorporate them into developing FCO priorities.

  • Resolution 2011.4.5
    Honor the Dead, Heal the Wounded, Stop the Wars ABOLISH NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS Resolution 2011-4, to be approved at the National Convention of Veterans for Peace in Portland, Oregon, August 3-7, 2011. This resolution has already been approved by the East Bay and San Francisco Chapters. Whereas, the nuclear disaster at Fukushima has shown once again that nuclear power plants are, next to nuclear warheads themselves, among the most dangerous devices that our species has ever created, and that, along with nuclear weapons, the construction and proliferation of nuclear power is, as Patrick Moore states in Assault on Future Generations (1976), “the most irresponsible, in fact the most criminal act ever to have taken place on this planet,” and Whereas, as an educational and humanitarian organization dedicated to the abolishment of war and the elimination of nuclear weapons, Veterans for Peace understands the importance of linking nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons with the entire military industrial complex, the same destructive machine that gave us the wars in Vietnam and the Middle East, and Whereas, in addition to the serious health, safety, environmental, and economic issues involved with nuclear power plants, and the inherent risks of nuclear proliferation and terrorist attacks associated with nuclear power plants, the mulitple links between nuclear power and nuclear weapons make it impossible to abolish nuclear weapons as long as nuclear power plants continue to operate, and Whereas, control over fossil feuls and nuclear energy have been and continue to be a major focus of the wars that have plagued our species in the Twentieth and Twenty-first Centuries, and Whereas, there are alternative energy sources, such as wind and solar, that are safe.

  • Veterans and Military Families in the Anti-Iraq War Movement
    472 Armed Forces & Society 42(2) Because the critical variables, as we are informed, are military resistance to change and national policy maker attention and determination, what does it mean to say ‘‘peacekeeping’’ succeeded or failed? Is the link between peacekeeping and these supposed effects more correlative than causal? Admittedly these overlapping issues are largely semantic, but semantics can bedevil clarity and, as with this book, lessen the strength of one’s arguments, especially supposedly causal arguments. Finally, how exactly does democratization per se affect outcomes? How does it really fit in beyond the fact that many new peacekeepers were democratizing states? Is a polit- ical leadership’s desire, for instance, to undertake international signaling or to change its military organically linked to the democratization process? Would it make a difference if a mature democracy or an autocracy also resorted to peacekeep- ing deployments to further its prestige or change its military? This writer would ven- ture to say no. None of the issues raised above lessen this book’s heuristic value. Sotomayor per- forms a valuable service by looking at peacekeeping through civil–military and IR lenses. Decision makers need to mull his conclusions. So too should IR and civil– military relations theorists since Sotomayor points out the limits of their theories when exposed to peacekeeping practices.

  • Sign on Letter
    Sign-on letter organized by the Climate Crisis and Militarism Working Group, Veterans For Peace Dear Honorable John Kerry: On behalf of Veterans For Peace and other peace and climate champions, we congratulate you on your appointment as Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, thank you for returning us to the Paris Agreement, and applaud your efforts to lead the Biden administration’s clean energy revolution. Let us put militarism at the center of this conversation on climate. We are pleased that the Biden/Harris Administration has created this position, as a reflection of the seriousness of the climate crisis, and we are pleased that the person with that position is you. It is approaching 50 years since you, as an anti-war veteran, delivered to Congress a lengthy, articulate and devastating critique of the Viet Nam war. Some of us were already anti-war veterans or soldiers, and you spoke truth to power for us. You have had many positions of power since that time; in your present position, we ask that you summon the courage and clarity about war and militarism that you expressed to Congress in April 1971. You posed the question, “How do we ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?” Now the question we pose is, “How do we ask millions of people to die as a result of a climate catastrophe fueled by endless war and militarism?” To thwart climate catastrophe, we present the following requests: 1) Please implement the inclusion of military emissions in all reporting and data on Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions.
