Mỹ có thể chuyển giao tên lửa hành trình Tomahawk tầm xa cho Ukraine, có thể thay đổi cục diện cuộc xung đột kéo dài hơn 3 năm với Nga. Với khả năng tấn công chính xác từ xa, Kiev sẽ tăng cường sức mạnh phòng thủ và phản công, nhắm vào các mục tiêu chiến lược của đối phương.

@PeterRu My family in Vietnam lived/lives that fugly reality. One of my uncles was blown up in pieces from leftover #USAmilitary #munitions. 3 kids in our Indigenous village are disabled from buried landmine explosions. 36 villagers were blown up by a leftover USA bomb in 1984.

You will, maybe, understand more, about why so many people in #Vietnam fully support #FreePalestine much more. I feel like #Palestinians are resistance brothers & sisters. I'm far from alone with those feelings, across the globe. Especially with fellow survivors of #USAMilitary #bombings on our peoples, villages & cities.

USA military and laws for a draft...

> A federal district court has ruled that male-only draft registration is unconstitutional. Contrary to popular myth a draft does not decrease the chances or duration or extent of wars.

Repeal the U.S. Military Selective Service Act - World BEYOND War

PARTNERS IN THIS EFFORT: World BEYOND War, RootsAction.org, On Earth Peace, Stop Recruiting Kids Campaign, The U.S. government is going to either expand draft registration to young women (signing them up to be forced against their will to kill and die) in the name of “equal rights,” or it is going to end this outdated […]

14 Points Against Draft Registration - World BEYOND War

By Leah Bolger, World BEYOND War 1. Wrong question. The argument that extending the Selective Service registration requirement to women as a way to help reduce gender-based discrimination is specious.  It does not represent a move forward for women; it represents a move backward, imposing on young women a burden that young men have had […]

.> the Pentagon is the single largest consumer of energy in the United States— and probably in the world.4 The US military maintains vast fleets of vehicles, ships, and aircraft, and many of these consume huge amounts of fossil fuels. A non- nuclear aircraft carrier consumes 5,621 gallons of fuel per hour; in other words, these vessels burn up as much fuel in one day as a small midwestern town might use in a year. But a single F- 16 aircraft consumes a third as much fuel in one hour of ordinary operations— around 1,700 gallons. If the plane’s afterburners are engaged, it consumes two and a half times as much fuel per hour as an aircraft carrier— 14,400 gallons. #AmitavGhosh in #NutmegsCurse on #ThePentagon #USAmilitary and #FossilFuels #F16 #AircraftCarrier #F16FuelUse #MidWesternTown #USAmidWesternTown
