All things connect." ~Chief Seattle 13:16:43 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : Why aren’t we getting the news that Raymond L McGovern is now reporting? How can we get this on PBS and major news outlets? 13:17:27 From Rachel Bruhnke to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : Q: The US govt often "deals" with non-state entities in other countries in order to foster war...Can WE American public start "dealing" with the Govts of other countries in order to foster peace?...Beyond "citizen to citizen" diplomacy...we are actually TAKING power AWAY from the U.S. State...? 13:17:40 From Leah Bolger to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : I am going through the chat and writing down all the c countries 13:17:44 From Jaskaran Gill to Everyone : ^because they are owned by corporate media with a vested interest in the military industrial complex? 13:18:37 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : Yes, but how can we override this? There must be a solution. Greta Thunberg has given us that lesson. 13:19:42 From Schecky to Everyone : Climate change science is suspect! 13:19:49 From stephanietrasoff to Everyone : Jaskaran G. you’ve nailed it. 13:20:26 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : Bravo Amy Goodman and Democracy Now. 13:21:31 From Clarke Hamel (he,him) to Everyone : Climate science is not suspect, the polluters are! 13:22:31 From Schecky to Everyone : Disagree! :))) 13:22:36 From Justin Phemister to Everyone : Agreed, a declaration of war against another significant nation would result in global financial collapse.. and things would get really bad really quickly regardless of whether anyone was nuked. The age of empire and saber-rattling and military posturing ought soon be over, or we may set ourselves on course for suffering and societal change on an unimaginable scale. 13:22:55 From David Scheidt to Everyone : What is peace? What would a responsible society look like? How can the USA be peaceful when the economic base of the economy is war [weapons and machinery of war]? 13:23:42 From Andres Barrera to Everyone : To Ray McGovern, V. Kozin.. and the rest of you at WBW: May I share with you a small piece of writing: https://syncreticstudies.com/2015/10/28/the-rise-and-transformation-of-american-militarism-and-imperialism-after-world-war-two/ I would be delighted to have your critical opinion and assessment on this short essay.

Great to see you. 13:24:13 From Schecky to Everyone : Thank you Ray!! 13:24:24 From Libby T San Mateo, CA to Everyone : Indeed, All Is One and intedependent, interrelated and interconnected. 13:24:28 From Clarke Hamel (he,him) to Everyone : Science unfortunately does not care about opinion. 13:24:50 From Ann Wright to Everyone : Thanks Ray-super overview!!! 13:24:55 From Rachel Bruhnke to Everyone : Most adults, and as a teacher I can assure you, ALL children and Youth, would much rather invest in Peace! 13:25:16 From Howard Mettee to Everyone : You haven't lost a step Ray. Keep the energy level going 13:25:18 From Rachel Bruhnke to Everyone : Prviet, Sir! 13:25:23 From Thomas H Greco Jr to Everyone : Thanks, Ray, for that excellent background and review. 13:26:32 From Peter Metz USA to Everyone : Ques to speakers: In a major speech Jan 11, 2017 Joe Biden said "If we want a world without nuclear weapons, the United States should take the initiative and lead us there." Isn't now the time to get going? 13:27:09 From Bill Timpson to Everyone : What is the economic cost that Russia pays for its military ambitions, staff, arsenal, etc.? Does Paul Kennedy's thesis of "military overstretch" as leading to economic implosion fit the Russian future as it seems to fit the US future? 13:27:24 From Steve to Everyone : how did Ray respond to Reagan rejecting nuclear disarmament because he wanted Star Wars > There is a big gap here. 13:33:02 From Paul Shannon to Everyone : slides are one behind what he is saying 13:33:07 From Peter Jones to Everyone : Western political supremacy (indispensibility) is collapsing and we have a post-Bush power elite in the US that realize their options are diminishing. The empire is trapped in its unipolar strategy. What can WBW people uniquely do to raise awareness? We have an insane war-mongering news media. Our politicians are not open to discussion, they have been told what to think. How can citizens and civil society groups best build bridges to détente in the emerging multipolar world? 13:34:14 From Justin Phemister to Everyone : Both nations have a large enough nuke arsenal to end not only one other, but the rest of the world along with us. This incredible spending on defense is done at the behest of the Military Industrial Complex (and the many powerful people becoming increasingly wealthy for it) and most additions to our respective arsenals really aren't even tactically relevant at this point. 13:35:00 From Mike S Goodmann to Everyone : However, secret services were used just as extensively during Cold War 1.0 ! 13:36:30 From Janet Kobren to Everyone : Two questions to both speakers: 1. U.S.'s evil "exceptional" twin Israel thumbs its nose at UN resolutions and international law. Would nuclear weaponized Israel ever participate in any cooperation effort? 2. Please address the new U.S. Space Force. 13:36:50 From Janet Kobren to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : Two questions to both speakers: 1. U.S.'s evil "exceptional" twin Israel thumbs its nose at UN resolutions and international law. Would nuclear weaponized Israel ever participate in any cooperation effort? 2. Please address the new U.S. Space Force. 13:37:38 From Mike S Goodmann to Everyone : No, because Israel insists that they are a necessity for their survival. they were almost deployed during the '73 war. 13:38:10 From Donald Jordan to Everyone : Will "AI" be the next danger for all? President Putin has said, whom ever develops it first will rule the world. Your thoughts? 13:39:55 From Peter Metz USA to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : How can we get a copy of both speakers' slides? 13:40:01 From Libby T San Mateo, CA to Everyone : Nuclear weapons have made all war obsolete because any war, no matter how small, can lead to a nuclear war, possibly ending all life as we know it. 13:40:30 From Jeannie Toschi Marazzani Visconti to Everyone : Thank you, Raymond McGovern. 13:40:47 From Schecky to Everyone : Thank you Vladimir! 13:40:48 From Jaskaran Gill to Everyone : Thank you Vladimir.

I'm glad there are 300 people on this Zoom and that this event is being recorded. 13:41:28 From Lois Foster to Everyone : Important point that there must be a restorative mindset going into a summit. Who is facilitating that process? 13:41:32 From Thomas H Greco Jr to Everyone : Thank you for articulating the Russian perspective. 13:41:40 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : JUNE 14 NATO Summit, what are the plans for a huge demonstration of both Russians with Europeans, hand and hand. I would love to be there but difficult for me in New Mexico (perhaps the nuke bomb production capital on our planet). 13:42:11 From Armen Gabrielian, San Jose to Everyone : Should the US stop demanding the denuclearization of NK when it still threatens that country. 13:42:18 From John Iacovelli to Everyone : It seems to me that underlying Mr. Kosin's remark stating that it would be better not to have a summit without proper preparation is a worry that the U.S. call for a summit is merely a Public Relations move. 13:42:20 From stephanietrasoff to Everyone : It would be a huge sacrifice for you, Ray, but I wish you were their President. 13:42:39 From Schecky to Everyone : Excellent. NO more gratuitous name calling! 13:42:53 From Howard Mettee to Everyone : I have two questions about nuclear weapons which are not part of the missile discussions. What about "Enriched Uranium Weapons" now in use being banned? 13:43:06 From Richard Pathak to Everyone : Thank you. The US believes the whole world must bend to its will. It's called imperialism. 13:43:31 From Schecky to Everyone : Gentlemen: please address Putin's Great Eurasian Cooperative economic project. Is it related to the One Belt 13:43:33 From Helen Young to Everyone : Vladimir, please share with us how the Russian public is reacting to the heightened tensions between the U.S. and Russia? What portion supports Mr. Putin’s position? 13:43:43 From Schecky to Everyone : One Road plan of China? 13:43:48 From Helen Young to Everyone : How do you characterize the Navalny support in Russia? 13:43:58 From Lois Foster to Everyone : Why isn't anyone facilitating that positive process of communication??? 13:44:29 From Jim Hudson to Everyone : If sanctions are off the table before a summit can take place, then how do you propose to have accountability for bad actors (no matter who they may be)? 13:45:06 From Schecky to Everyone : War Is A Racket.......a very profitable one!! 13:45:17 From Leslie Oschmann to Everyone : Not all of them clapped! 13:45:17 From Heinrich Buecker to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : do you record this? - Need to leave soon 13:45:35 From Schecky to Everyone : Ray McGovern for president!! 13:45:42 From Marc Pilisuk to Everyone : how can we bring the content of this seminar higher up in the policy process of the US and the Russian federation? How can we redistribute this seminar to others? 13:45:52 From Nydia Leaf to Everyone : Thank you, Ray -our country need to amplify your voice of wisdom. 13:46:03 From Felix Durity to Everyone : This discussion seems amazingly slanted to being anti- 13:46:27 From Jaskaran Gill to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : Can we please get that full acronym in the chat? 13:46:33 From Lamont Phemister to Everyone : Mr. Kozin, I deeply regret the behavior of the US government toward Russia. I have written Presidents Trump and Biden to rebuke them for our behavior. Lamont Phemister, Marion, Illinois 13:46:45 From James J ’s iPhone to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : For Ray- 1st priority x filibuster & pass S-1 to kill war machine choke hold? 13:47:04 From Raju Bhatt to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : what's the acronym please 13:47:19 From Donald Jordan to Everyone : The Finnish government is very pro-USA and they have done their best to backdoor NATO here despite 80% of the population being against it. If put to referendum it would lose be a landslide. What impact would it make if Finland joins NATO? 13:47:28 From Mike S Goodmann to Everyone : What about the crazy jerks in the intelligence community? That's the real danger in my opinion! 13:47:31 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : Mickey Mac= military industrial complex, media, academia…….I didn’t quite get it. Can someone write the correct one it in the chat. 13:47:45 From Howard Mettee to Everyone : Second Question: Is the "Nuclear Tsunami" a part of the nuclear discussion, by which a nuclear device is exploded under-ocean near large cities, causing a radioactive Tsunami to roll onto populated coastal areas. Shouldn't the enriched uranium weapons and nuclear tsunamis be part of the antinuclear discussion? 13:47:56 From Thomas H Greco Jr to Everyone : Yes, Ray, the cancer has metastasized throughout the entire body politic and elite "leadership." 13:48:06 From Mary Jeffery to David Swanson, World BEYOND War(Direct Message) : Please make a video copy of this program available to all participants Thank You 13:48:07 From paulhillery to Everyone : I worked at the UN for 29 years and totally agree with everything Raymond says. BRAVO. 13:48:13 From Avery Colter to Everyone : MICIMAC: Military-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-Media-Academia-Thinktank 13:48:34 From Felix Durity to Everyone : This discuaaion seems amazing skewed against USA behaviour and is ignoring P{utin's clear aggression against its neighbours and China's behaviour in the South China Sea. It seems entirely onesided. What does Russia have to do to make this a safer world. Do we disconnect citizens freedom? 13:48:35 From Kenneth Mayers to Everyone : Military-industrial-congressional-intelligence-media-academic-think tank 13:48:49 From Raju Bhatt to Everyone : MICIMAC: Military-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-Media-Academia-Thinktank 13:49:24 From Mercer to Everyone : exactly 13:49:31 From Jean Stevens to Everyone : Thank you for MICMAC! 13:49:35 From Thomas H Greco Jr to Everyone : Yes, a people's summit 13:49:36 From Jaskaran Gill to Everyone : Thank you Kenneth and Raju. 13:49:43 From Schecky to Everyone : Excellent idea! 13:49:46 From Clarke Hamel (he,him) to Everyone : Yes a People's Summit!!! 13:49:55 From Rachel Clark to Everyone : what a magnificent idea! 13:49:56 From Maureen Ellis to Everyone : Has Ray published, or whose academic research would he recommend? 13:49:58 From Dennis Wong to Everyone : Does the Military Industrial Complex and Military want a nuclear war? 13:50:04 From Marsha Hunt Greenwood, Arkansas USA to Everyone : I would sign on to that. 13:50:11 From Richard Denton DGN 7010 Canada to Everyone : WE would like Rotary, Int'l committee of the Red Cross to do this type of conference 13:50:13 From Gregory Slater to Everyone : A People's Summit that pre-empts the leader summit - I LIKE iT! 13:50:22 From Stephen Paulmier to Everyone : RUSSIA AND AMERICA An Interpretation by W.

A Red Cross & Physician for Social Responsibility Summit for the prohibition of nuclear weapons! 13:52:21 From Ann Batiza to Everyone : Shawn Henry of Crowdstrike, Dec. 5, 2017 - saw no "exfiltration" of emails from the DNC by ANYONE 13:52:25 From Astrid Jarvis to Everyone : Thank for this informational program. From Astrid Jarvis, Douglaston, Queens, NY USA 13:52:54 From Veronica to Everyone : Can someone pls answer Felix’s Durity’s question re: Russia and China’s aggression? How does Citizen’s Freedom play into all this? Does it even matter? Will the World be ‘safer’ if Citizens are all imprisoned and silenced? 13:53:02 From Jaskaran Gill to Everyone : Aaron Mate does great journalism on Russia-gate. 13:53:26 From Mercer to Everyone : The Summit can address that as well 13:53:46 From Justin Phemister to Everyone : Digital warfare could just as easily become the medium for end of civilization as nukes, and is quite profitable in its own right.. 13:54:15 From Lamont Phemister to Everyone : Let us make the declaration and others will follow. 13:54:24 From Rick Staggenborg to Everyone : If Felix hasn't done any independent investigation of what Russia is really doing, the issues are too complex to answer here. 13:54:49 From Ann Batiza to Everyone : So what did Mr. Henry say about “evidence” during testimony under oath on December 5, 2017? It’s important to remember that James Comey testified to Congress that the FBI never accessed the DNC servers – that they relied on CrowdStrike to provide all the evidence from the servers - even though Mr. Comey admitted best practice is to access the data themselves. (I saw him say this myself on C-Span.) Here is the teaser. Representative Chris Stewart of Utah asked the muskie, “You said something and I want to restate it -- and tell me if I’m wrong … talking about the DNC computer, you had indications that data was prepared to be exfiltrated, but no evidence it actually left.

Is this the way to run a nation? Imagine if Trump was in power until 2034? 1) Putin's support never drops below 60%. This is legitimate percentage. It has been confirmed by independent countries polling. 2) Before USA's FDR, Presidents could run for office as many times as they want. Many other countries allow elections of presidents as many times as they want 3) In America, congressmen and Senators can run for office as many times as they want. 14:15:35 From Jane Clark to Everyone : Question for McGovern: Does CIA have "Nazis" in it (or their sons) from the Operation Paperclip and other programs after WWII?

That 14:17:31 From ellenetaylor to Everyone : Do you have a sense of what Russia’s interests and concerns are presently with regard to Afghanistan?

Tulsi Gabbard and Rand Paul are theonly 14:20:15 From Schecky to Everyone : ones promoting peace today and even they are limited! 14:20:30 From justin paglino to Everyone : Dennis run for office! 14:20:54 From Avery Colter to Everyone : Some have suggested Tulsi is a pawn of Modi. 14:21:16 From Schecky to Everyone : She is CFR which is also suspect. The situation is bleak 14:21:29 From Schecky to Everyone : Lets face it. This discussion is preaching to the choir. 14:21:36 From Mike S Goodmann to Everyone : ...and it's not likely to change. 14:21:48 From Dennis Wong to Everyone : To Schecky. You say … Because no one who thinks like us can get elected Dennis. Then perhaps we should address this problem. 14:21:51 From bluewombat to Everyone : To paraphrase Everett Dirksen: A trillion here, a trillion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money. 14:21:56 From Steve to Everyone : no first use is good as far as it goes, but in case of a nuclear accident it would be hard to determine first use. The Treaty to Ban Nuclear Weapons should be the starting and continuing thrust. 14:21:56 From Kurt Krueger, SuccessSystemsInternational.net to Everyone : How about using your creative genius? OR Collaborate with friends/neighbors and experience the synergy and more likely find an answer to this query, “What is the mystery of peace and justice, that when we were to discover and embrace, our realization of it would be faster and easier.” When you have any ideas that could bring peace in any manner, anywhere, anytime, please apply it and then share it ~ with us too… When we take some responsibility for being the Peace where we are, we are then models for others to follow ~ the ripples begin with us! OtherNetworks.org/Peace_LAB Connect with me via SuccessSystemsInternational.net 14:22:12 From justin paglino to Everyone : I appreciate ray pointing out the nonsense of russiagate. A whole bunch of propaganda over nothing and Americans ate it up. 14:22:13 From Helen Young to Everyone : Please respond to the argument that adopting a No First Use policy by the U.S. will force our allies like South Korean who depend on the nuclear umbrella, to develop their own nukes. 14:22:17 From Mike S Goodmann to Everyone : That's exactly the problem; Only the "usual suspects" participate in these activities! 14:23:12 From Rick Staggenborg to Everyone : Romney used the same argument in 2012 14:23:29 From stephanietrasoff to Everyone : I don’t understand how No First Use serves to defend anyone. 14:23:37 From Dennis Wong to Everyone : Why is everyone on the other side of the question stupid and rich? 14:23:47 From Schecky to Everyone : This is a very old conversation with very few people under 14:23:59 From Schecky to Everyone : 60 participating.
