Anti-imperialist protest against NATO military summit in Athens
A well-crafted report by Tony Seed on the recent NATO Military Committee meeting in Athens and the protests held against it. It’s particularly heartening to see trade unionists, women’s groups and students involved in opposition to NATO. Here in the U.S. political figures claiming to represent those constituencies voted to a one for the infamous NATO Support Act of 2019.

Thanks for reposting and adding an excellent point. I updated the article to reflect that.

In Canada agencies claiming to represent these constituencies openly endorse Canada’s participation in NATO and NORAD. Opposition to NATO is now absent from the NDP platform. A resolution presented to its policy convention for withdrawal from NATO was not even allowed to be debated. It reveals the taboo imposed by the cartel parties on any discussion about NATO whatsoever.

Ahead of the scheduled NATO and G8 summits in Chicago in 2012, sponsored by all the types you alluded to – anti-war activists who support, even agitate for war if a Democrat is in the White House, those who pick and choose who to go to war against based on ethnic and religious affinities, those who only oppose military action if it’s in Latin America (their version of the Monroe Doctrine) – I was only invited to attend at the eleventh hour, even though at the time I ran the only daily/active anti-NATO email list and website in the U.S. if not the world. Present was a representative of the NDP, who was all for protesting the G8 – a paper organization that doesn’t even have a website – and not at all NATO. He solemnly mentioned the then-recent death of NDP leader Jack Layton, and the audience nodded its head in reverence. Not me. I thought, that foul warmonger who cheered on every single act of NATO aggression – in Bosnia, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Libya – be damned. I seemed to be alone in that sentiment.
