Peace in Ukraine Day of Action - Hilo, HI

Join CODEPINK, RootsAction and Malu 'Aina Center For Non-violent Education & Action for the Feb. 24 anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Many scholars and scientists say the world has never been closer to nuclear catastrophe. The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists has put their doomsday clock minute hand closest to midnight since the clock was designed in 1947.  To illustrate the present closeness to nuclear war–it’s now 90 seconds before midnight. UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, called the Doomsday Clock a “global alarm clock.” Hopefully it will awaken the world from sleepwalking to Nuclear Armageddon.

The US and NATO continue to flood Ukraine with weapons and more weapons. The US alone has pumped in more than $100 Billions dollars to aid the war effort, as the Pentagon’s overall budget now approaches $1 Trillion dollars annuallyThe European news giant, Reuters, announced that Americans have been told to leave Russia. Poland is calling up over 200,000 men for military training and NATO now has ten times the number of their troops on Russian borders than last year.

Tanks, planes, missiles, and drones flood Ukraine. 100 Ukrainians are doing Patriot missile training in Oklahoma as the walk to war becomes a trot. And… U.S. destruction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.  More war is NOT the answer. Speak up for peace NOW before it is too late!

Stop the Killing! Avert Nuclear War!   Peace is a Victory for All!
