John Bolton is gone but the advocates for war against Iran have been dominating the mass media in recent days.
Trump announced that the United States was "locked and loaded" for a potential war against Iran.?
Make no mistake about it, a U.S. military strike against Iran will initiate a regional war and create mass suffering and chaos in the region and around the world.
The ANSWER Coalition is part of the upcoming "People's Mobilization to Stop the U.S. War Machine and Save the Planet", which is holding a demonstration in New York City near the United Nations on Sunday, September 22 starting at 2:00 p.m.?
Both the Trump White House and the Democratic Party leadership in Congress are allies in the ongoing U.S. global war drive that threatens not only Iran but Venezuela and other countries and peoples who seek independence and self-determination.?
In addition, the demonstration Sunday will also demand that the United States sign the nuclear weapons ban treaty, rejoin the Iran nuclear agreement and Paris climate treaty, disband NATO and close bases and outposts around the world.
If you can't join us in New York but would like to make a donation to help pay for the transportation costs of those traveling to NYC, you can make an urgently-needed donation <[link removed]>.?
