Wed 9/9 Yemen Webinar with Kathy Kelly and Sarah Ball

KATHY KELLY and SARAH BALL of VCNV
WISCONSIN ZOOM MEETING, WED, SEPT. 9, 2020, 7 PM

In Marinette, WI, the Fincantieri Marinette Marine shipyard is constructing four LCS Combat warships for sale to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Saudis use the ships to blockade seaports and attack coastlines of Yemen. After six years of war, millions of people in Yemen are hungry, ill, destitute and acutely vulnerable.

Voices for Creative Nonviolence had announced plans to walk, in September, from Green Bay, WI to Marinette, WI. They have had to postpone the peace walk.

We still want to collaborate about ways to end the U.S. war making against Yemen and stop, once and for all, the futile, cruel “forever wars.”

“True safety and security lie in conversion to industries that prepare us against the real threats we face: devastating climate change, a global pandemic, and the corrosive shame of endless war. We must resist signing contracts with weapon makers profiting from endless misery of the Middle East and needless superpower rivalries inviting full nuclear war. Such contracts, inked in blood, doom every corner of our world to perish as a battleground state.” Kathy Kelly, “Battleground States,” June 26, 2020
