If you heard the candidates during last night’s Democratic Party debates, you know it is time for peace and justice activists to lead!
Who spoke out forcefully for diplomacy and peace? Who condemned the ways our bloated military budget has undercut spending on critical human needs like jobs, education and addressing climate change? Who condemned the senseless and immoral wars that are raging in so many places today? These are the issues UFPJ has promoted for 13 years.
Please donate today so that UFPJ can continue this vital work.
UFPJ’s strong voice for peace is needed to keep these issues front and center during the campaign. It’s clear that the mainstream media won’t do that for us. We must do that for ourselves.
Thank you so much,
UFPJ’s National Coordinating Committee
Senator Bernie Sanders was promoting Peace!
Definitely Bernie Sanders. I hope everyone here caught at the end how Hillary Clinton replied when asked who she was proud to have as an enemy and said, “the Iranians.” After the Obama Administration worked so hard to get the nuclear deal with Iran and avoid war, despite relentless efforts of many in Congress, Israel, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere to sabotage any hope for such, that really makes my blood boil, especially since she came out in favor of diplomacy after pressure from democratic, left-leaning and pro-peace groups to do so. I guess she will say anything depending on what crowd she thinks she’s trying to please.
