This is my soap box speech from the Park Street demo, Sat. Feb. 21. Thankfully it was not so cold as it is today!
The global situation is careening out of control
Every country the U.S. and/or NATO have bombed is in a state of chaos: Libya, Iraq, Yemen, Syria, Somalia, and Afghanistan. US warmongers are not satisfied with all that chaos, they are sparring with Russia over the Ukraine – playing a very dangerous game with a nuclear armed power

Feb. 21, 2015-Boston Common:
About 20 anti-war protesters held a speakout against Obama's request for authorization to use military force against Iraq and Syria.

On January 22, 2015 the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the hands of the doomsday clock two minutes closer to midnight.
"This is about doomsday; this is about the end of civilization as we know it," said bulletin executive director Kennette Benedict. "The probability of global catastrophe is very high, and the actions needed to reduce the risks of disaster must be taken very soon," she said.
Time for the global superpower to rise again!
Submitted by tpaneth on Thu, 01/22/2015 - 6:54pmToday the doomsday clock was moved forward to three minutes to midnight. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists said in a statement today: "World leaders have failed to act with the speed or on the scale required to protect citizens from potential catastrophe. These failures of leadership endanger every person on earth."

Submitted by tpaneth on Wed, 01/14/2015 - 6:54amLast night members of Arlington United for Justice with Peace went to see the timely movie Selma that just opened at our hometown movie theater, The Capitol.
The actors give rather understated performances in a slow-paced film punctuated by violence. The bombing of the Birmingham church is set squarely at the beginning and although I knew what was coming I jumped at the horror of it: Cynthia Wesley, Addie Mae Collins, Carole Robertson and Denise McNair.

Vermont Yankee Closed
Submitted by tpaneth on Mon, 01/05/2015 - 12:44pmAfter decades of protest, radioactive tritium leaks, a collapsed cooling tower and about 3000 spent fuel rods "temporarily" stored on the roof in spent fuel pools, Vermont Yankee powered down on December 29.
Vermont Yankee was one of the GE Mark I reactors - the same design as the three Fukushima reactors that melted down in the 2011 earthquake disaster in Japan.
