| "The greatest purveyor of violence in the world today: my own Government...I cannot be silent." – Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. |
First goal is to frighten with prosecution anyone calling for or fomenting war or military attack on an other nation in violation of International/National Law Nuremberg Principle # 6 regarding Crimes Against Peace, thus inhibiting and preventing, new wars from being created. This would include media war mongering, by serious discussions of pros and cons of a US military attack or unlawful sanctions. Simultaneously, arrest and indictment for present/past Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes
Fifteen quotes from Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr. are carved into his memorial on the Washington
Mall, but perhaps his harshest indictment of the United States is
absent: “…I
knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the
oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the
greatest purveyor of violence in the world today – my own government.”
The omission is glaring at a time when the U.S. is engaged in even more
wars than during Dr. King’s era. “Nor is there any mention that
America's wars are the cause of economic hardship at home.”
“President Barack Obama invoked the words of Dr. King – some of them – without even mentioning war.”
"US Wars Meant to Maintain Unjust Predatory Overseas Investments! Look across the seas and see individual capitalists of the West investing huge sums of money in Asia, Africa, and South America, only to take the profits out with no concern for the social betterment of the country. This is a role our nation has taken, … refusing to give up the privileges and the pleasures that comes from the immense profits of overseas investments. This is not just. " Martin Luther King Jr.
