Review:
The Silence of the Security Council in the
1990s
Excellent study by Virgil Hawkins on why the UN failed to
engage in the most serious conflicts - and what must be done
to change that fact. Important for the discussion about UN
reform.

Från
patriarkal maktutövning till mänsklig
säkerhet och demokrati
Idag, den 25 november är det den "Internationella Dagen
För Avskaffande Av Våld Mot Kvinnor".
Generalsekreterare Kofi Annans budskap förra året
var: "Könsrelaterat
våld är kanske den mest avskyvärda
kränkningen av de mänskliga rättigheterna.
Så länge det fortsätter kan vi inte
hävda att vi gör några riktiga framsteg mot
jämlikhet, utveckling och fred."
Här relaterar vi
det könsrelaterade våldet till frågan om
mänsklig säkerhet och tankar om en ny typ av
försvarspolitik. En rad ledande tidningar i Sverige har
tackat nej till att publicera artikeln.

Meeting
the Russell-Einstein challenge to humanity

In 2005, when the Russell-Einstein Manifesto has its 50th
anniversary, we will be 60 years into the Nuclear Age and
the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) will commemorate
the 35th anniversary of its entry into force. In April 2005,
the 189 parties to the NPT will meet at the United Nations.
The meeting promises to be contentious and disappointing...

Civil
resistance and prevention of state
crimes
An absolutely essential article on prisoners of conscience
(or political prisoners) in the US and on this: "American
citizens possesses the basic right under international law
and United States domestic law, including the American
Constitution, to engage in acts of civil resistance in order
to prevent, impede, thwart, or terminate ongoing criminal
activities perpetrated by U.S. government officials in their
conduct of foreign affairs policies and military operations
purported to relate to defense and counter-terrorism.
This same right of civil resistance extends pari passu to
all citizens of the world community of states. Everyone
around the world has both the right and the duty under
international law to resist ongoing criminal activities
perpetrated by the Bush Jr. administration and its foreign
accomplices in allied governments. If not so restrained, the
Bush Jr. administration could very well precipitate a Third
World War."

to Griffin's "The New Pearl

David Ray Griffin has written an extraordinary book. If

Kerry
pledges to give nuclear terrorism top
priority
Neither Bush nor Kerry has set forth a plan to fulfill US
obligations for nuclear disarmament under Article VI of the
Non Proliferation Treaty. This is a major omission
since the nuclear disarmament requirement of the treaty is a
foundational element, and without US leadership to achieve
this obligation it may be impossible to prevent nuclear
terrorism.

Fredsstøtte

Fredsskabelse i en organisation ledet og organiseret til

Forsvarets
udsendte anklaget for
racisme
Militærsociolog Claus Kold har lavet et feltstudie og
en ph.d-afhandling om de udsendte danske soldaters
opfattelser og holdninger til deres opgave. Han er
overbevist om, at der findes udbredt racisme mod de lokale,
som de danske soldater er sendt af sted for at
beskytte:
"De danske soldater er
gode til at slås, men de bærer også
frøene i sig til at begå overgreb, som ligner
dem, et ukendt antal Irak-udsendte amerikanske og brit iske
soldater har forarget verden med de seneste uger," vurderer
han.

State
Terrorism/Terrorism, USA/Iraq, Israel/Palestine Right
Now
War is a two-way street as Anglo-Americans and Israelis with
their punishment expeditions and military intervention
against peoples unable to hit back are now learning. Today
they hit back, military and civilians against military and
civilians; USA-UK killing by far most. Terrorists possess
less destructive force than the state terrorists, but their
societies are more vulnerable.

The

As matters of fact and of law, the gross and repeated

against Israeli war crimes and Israeli war criminals, both
military and civilian.

replacing reliance on police and military lethality for
prevention and resolution of violent conflict (especially
communal conflict).
