Buttons & Postcards
•••
I've been working with a very energetic group of peacemakers here in Nebraska for a couple of years now & was approached this year to help Nebraskans For Peace raise some money at their annual peace conference. You can help them in their peacework by purchasing these buttons & postcards in our TMF store.
A main focus at the conference was StratCom, located in Omaha, & space weapons in our military-industrial-corporate complex. Bruce Gagnon, who does a lot of organizing work on the subject, gave a very passionate address about the problems we face with this highly corporate, militarized madness that engulfs our communities. As we have seen in the news with Blackwater or Halliburton, the negative effects of a privatized war machine using globalization to advance an ideology of dominance is getting quite ugly.
We are a nation addicted to war & there is a shift that must take place to a culture of life. Even though war is inhuman & immoral, the military is such a large source for jobs & wealth in a community.
After a rather dire assessment, the solution presents itself quite nicely. The workforce of the weapons of (mass) destruction market needs a new reason to be proud of this country. A new clean, green economy needs a workforce.
