On Sept. 28, 2002, the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) marched in London to protest the impending invasion of Iraq. In the 1980s, the CND was in the forefront of the nuclear disarmament movement, which helped lead to U.S.-Soviet arms limitation treaties (now being abandoned.)
There have been no anti-war protests since of the size 0f the anti-Iraq War movement. Exactly 22 years later, on Sept. 28, 2024, a rally will be held in Kingston, N.Y. to help revive an anti-war movement in the face of two conflicts that could go nuclear.
Scott Ritter, former U.N. weapons inspector, geo-strategic and political analyst and journalist wrote the following on his Substack on Aug. 15, a week after the F.B.I. raided his home:
There is no doubt that the Kingston rally is going to be a political event–as part of the event, I am organizing Operation DAWN, an event designed to help prevent nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia by asking the following questions of American voters:
“What would you do to save Democracy, save America, save the World, by empowering your vote in November?”
Maybe the F.B.I. thought I would be intimidated by the raid, and opt to remain silent out of fear of generating unwanted attention.
But all the F.B.I. really accomplished that day [Aug. 7, when it raided Ritter’s home] was to execute a raid on peace.
Because that is what Operation DAWN and the Sept. 28 rally in Kingston are all about–promoting the cause of peace based upon good relations between nations, of preventing nuclear war through meaningful arms control.
… I believe the threat of nuclear war represents the greatest existential threat to my country today.
Four, one of the last remaining opportunities for the American people to help prevent a nuclear war is to empower their vote in November’s presidential election by making the candidates for that office earn it by articulating policies that promote peace, the prevention of nuclear war, and the promotion of arms control. …
I will be in Kingston, New York, on Sept. 28, side by side with Gerald Celente and a host of friends and colleagues, including those physically present and those participating remotely, to promote the cause of peace that constitute the core objectives of Operation DAWN.
I hope many of you who read this can join us on that day. …
Let us make happen what the F.B.I. and Department of Justice appear hellbent on stopping.
Let’s make peace, not war, a national priority.
I’ll see you in Kingston.
A message from Gerald Celente, publisher of Trends Journal, and organizer of Saturday’s rally.
