King Condemned U.S. Wars
Won’t you please add your signature to that of former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark, author of the Civil Rights Act of that same year.
The KingCondemnedUSWars (.org) campaign is in memory of Howard Zinn’s radio broadcasts’ call to echo Martin Luther King's sermon, Beyond Vietnam, a Time to Break Silence. The campaign will be officially endorsed shortly by clergy related antiwar organizations already in consultation.
Condemn US Wars
Petition to Our Pastor
We the undersigned, in the name of our national hero Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ask that you forthrightly and unequivocally condemn the blowing apart of our brothers and sisters all around the world just as King condemned it.
We ask further that you condemn, as King did, the lies used to justify the murder and maiming of families in their own homes and villages, and the subversion, destabilization and destruction of their homelands in the interests of predatory investments,
Finally, just as Dr. King, in his sermon Beyond Vietnam - a Time to Break Silence, recounted to us the history of the lies, from 1945 onward, used to trick Americans into supporting the Vietnam war, we ask you to expose the lies that have concealed secret arrangements for CIA covert crimes against humanity in the Middle East, Africa and elsewhere in the world since 1953, - arrangements that always originate within a financial element that rules our society through ownership and manipulation of 99% of all sources of information.
Reverend, please repeat Martin Luther King’s, public denunciation of American homicide abroad, currently being heartlessly practiced in six Muslim nations. King cried out, “The Greatest Purveyor of Violence in the World Today is My Own Government,” “Every man of humane convictions must protest, we must all protest.” King warned us, “Silence is betrayal”
King was silenced so the imperialist wars he condemned could go on. We are no longer silent. May our clergy lead us in prosecuting those promoting war.
