Radical Leftists Nuclear Ban Rally at NYC Library

January 20, 2023 – Noon- a protest on the steps of the well known, Fifth Ave NYC Library.

Statement from Peace Action NYC :

“We will gather to celebrate the second anniversary of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and then march to the U.S. Mission (1st Ave & 45th St) to deliver the message that the U.S. must join the Treaty”

They also stated, “It’s been quite a year for Peace Action New York State! From advocating for peace in Yemen and Ukraine, to holding our leaders accountable for our nation’s excessive military spending, our growing network is organizing a strong and impactful peace movement across New York State!” https://www.icanw.org/

Excerpted speech re the Nuclear Weapons Ban Treaty,

“… what we are celebrating …  if you don’t know about the U.N. Treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons, you are to be forgiven. In all of the media coverage on international war and brewing dangers we have not seen much mentioned that the only realistic solution for nuclear weapons – nuclear weapons which pose the greatest existential threat to humanity – including for posing the most acute existential threat to our climate (and global food supply) The solution is the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. [… ] It is the first and only global treaty that categorically prohibits … everything to do with nuclear weapons; also providing a framework for their total elimination.

It is historic … in seeking to prevent future harm, but to to address past harm. […] If you don’t know about it, why do you think that is. […] True experts on international security, science and health care calculate that the the (… ) policies have slept walked humanity into the highest risk ever … higher that at the height of the cold war. And it will get worse quickly, without a major shift. That shift is this treaty, the treaty on the prohibition on nuclear weapons. It is our best hope. Our only hope.”

.(the video continues … with claims of nuclear racism) NYrs find a way to support this treaty….after all it was here where nuclear weapons began. (…) and many NY communities, primarily in  black and brown and under served NYC communities continue to suffer from the radio active legacy of that program  … many NYrs not knowing this. […] many do not know that NYC, prior to 1980’s legislation, was surrounded by Nuclear Missiles [… ] that made NYC more of a target [….] Thank you for your support … (let’s) see the rest of the world join is.” [End Video]

Like the 1960s where the radical students were actually backed by the Russians, just like the recent couple of years the rioters were actually backed by the CCP, we see more of the same. Too many Americans have no clue about real strategies. They think playing football gives you something. None have read Sun Tsu’s Art of War.
It’s not Trump that’s connected to the Russians and Chinese, but the Democratic Party. The USSR was never recognised until FDR was elected and it is a cousin of FDR, Clinton Roosevelt, who is the probable author of the Communist Manifesto. His book had a blueprint for the New Deal as well FDR’s NRA.
