Nonviolently confronting, disrupting, interrupting, and holding personally accountable at their public appearances can be a very effective tool for changing the behavior of war profiteers and the elected or appointed officials who do their bidding.
That’s why a World BEYOND War member recently confronted the Canadian war minister, and a World BEYOND War Advisory Board Member confronted the Canadian foreign minister and questioned the minister of the environment and climate change. We’re also planning to attempt a citizen’s arrest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the earliest opportunity.
In line with our ongoing efforts to stop the arms trade, to protest war profiteering, and to support holding war criminals to the rule of law, including through the International Court of Justice and through the Merchants of Death War Crimes Tribunal, we are launching an effort to train, facilitate, and encourage the direct verbal confronting of war profiteers and their servants everywhere they go. Here are a couple of videos of WBW executive director David Swanson confronting former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and current U.S. Senator / former Vice Presidential candidate Tim Kaine.
