Testimonianze dal video:

James Fairweather, Veterano giamaicano della 2° guerra mondiale di posta in Germania nel 1946
“Ho visto la devastazione provocata dalla guerra: donne e bambini sono le vittime principali. Se ‘fraternizzavamo con il nemico’ rischiavamo la prigione militare, ma gli davamo da mangiare lo stesso.”

Stephen Funk, marine americano, cinque mesi di prigione per essersi rifiutato di andare in Iraq
"Non sono a favore dell’entrata dei gay nell’esercito perché non appoggio l’azione militare."

Shimri Tzameret, refusenik israeliano, esentato dall’esercito dopo due anni di prigione
"Già da anni so che non farò il militare. Lo so con la stessa certezza con cui so che non prenderò mai a calci un senza tetto, non stuprerò mai una donna, e quando avrò un figlio non lo abbandonerò mai."

Harriet , rifugiata politica, evasa dall’esercito ugandese
“Mi sono arruolata perché questo mi avrebbe dato i mezzi per mantenere i miei figli. . . ma c’erano nonnismo, molestie sessuali e stupri.”

Rev. Dorothy Mackey, STAAAMP (Sovravvissute/i in Azione Contro il Personale Militare)
“Nei miei primi cinque anni nell’esercito USA sono stata stuprata tre volte, due da dottori durante visite ginecologiche”.

Alex Izett , Sopravvissuto alla Sindrome del Golfo
“Ho fatto uno sciopero della fame di 40 giorni per ottenere un’inchiesta pubblica – perché riconoscano che i veterani sono stati avvelenati dal proprio paese.”

Camilo Mejia, Sergente USA, nove mesi di prigione per essersi rifiutato di ritornare in Iraq
Piuttosto che uccidere un bambino per sbaglio vado in prigione. La prigione finisce, ma quando uccidi un bambino non te lo dimentichi più.”


Payday è una rete internazionale multi-razziale di uomini che lavorano con il Global Women's Strike (Sciopero Internazionale delle Donne). Ci organizziamo con donne e uomini di molti paesi diversi che rifiutano di uccidere e di essere uccise/i: soldati, veterani, studenti, sopravvissute/i allo stupro da parte dei militari e le loro famiglie, oltre ad altri sostenitori. Payday pubblicizza le novità del movimento e aggiorna le notizie sulla campagne nel mondo sul sito web: www.refusingtokill.net

Upshot of our Nov. 9th group discussion on current politics:

It wasn't the Russians that got us Trump. Or Comey. Or even the massive GOP election fraud. It was the DNC.*
*Dem National Committee

To learn how to stop the DNC from delivering us another Trump, read Autopsy: the Democratic Party in Crisis.

Iraq Deaths Estimator
Did someone tell you that U.S. military intervention in Iraq was over? Not true: we're at it again. This time the pretext to drop bombs is "curbing ISIS" (which was created by the U.S. in the first place, to overturn al-Malaki in Iraq and then Assad in Syria, and is now out of hand. Like what happened to "our" creature al Qaeda in Afghanistan). And the death toll continues to rise...
Write your senators and tell them: "Enough! U.S. out!! Iraq has shown it can curb ISIS by itself!"
