For the last 10 years or so, Veterans For Peace has been working to reclaim November 11 as “Armistice Day,” a day that is dedicated to ending war once and for all.
Today, the looming threats of climate catastrophe and nuclear annihilation have been overshadowed by Israel’s horrific ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza. This year, Veterans For Peace called for an Armistice – a permanent Ceasefire in Palestine, Lebanon and throughout the Middle East.
We will not be complicit in genocide. No one is free until we are all free
