Ekhulumela lezi zinhlangano ezinhlanu, u-Edward Horgan weVeterans for Peace ubuze umbuzo: “Yikuphi ukuthula okuzuzwe nguJohn Kerry futhi kuphi?”
“Ukuklonyeliswa kwemiklomelo yokuthula kufanele kusekelwe eqinisweni, ubuqotho kanye nokuthethelelwa” kuqhuba uDkt Horgan. “Ngeshwa, akunjalo ngaso sonke isikhathi. INobel Peace Prize iye yaklonyeliswa esikhathini esidlule kubantu abambalwa ababenecala lokuqala noma lokuba nesandla ezimpini zobudlova nokuhlukumeza amalungelo abantu. UHenry Kissinger uyisibonelo salokhu. Esinye isibonelo nguBarack Obama owaklonyeliswa ngendondo yakhe yeNobel Peace Prize ngaphambi nje kokuba agunyaze ukubulawa kwabantu okuhloswe ngabo nokuqhunyiswa kwamabhomu okwabulala izinkulungwane zabantu abangenacala.”
"UJohn Kerry kanye ne-United States of America bathi bavikela umhlaba ophucuzekile kumaphekula nobushiqela bamaSulumane" kusho uJim Roche we-Irish Anti War Movement. "Kodwa iqiniso liwukuthi i-United States ibulale izinombolo eziningi ezibulawa amaphekula amaSulumane kulokho okubizwa ngokuthi i-War on Terror. Izimpi ezaziholwa yi-US eKosovo, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya naseSyria zonke zaqalwa ngaphandle kwemvume ye-UN futhi kwaba nemiphumela eshaqisayo.”
"Izenzo zobuphekula ezenziwa ngabanye abantu, iqembu labavukeli kanye namasosha azikwazi ukuvunywa, futhi nezenzo zobudlova zezifundazwe ngeke zikwazi ukuvunyelwa," kusho uRoger Cole we-Peace and Neutrality Alliance. “Uhulumeni amele uJohn Kerry unecala lobushokobezi bombuso. Kusukela ngo-1945 i-US isiketule ohulumeni abangamashumi amahlanu, okuhlanganisa nentando yeningi, yachoboza izinhlangano ezilwela inkululeko ezingaba ngu-30, yasekela ubushiqela, futhi yamisa amagumbi okuhlushwa kusukela e-Egypt kuya eGuatemala - okuyiqiniso elivezwe yintatheli uJohn Pilger. Ngenxa yezenzo zabo inqwaba yamadoda, abesifazane nezingane baye baqhunyiswa ngamabhomu bafa.”
"Lokhu akulona uhlobo lukahulumeni i-Tipperary Peace Convention okufanele inikeze umklomelo wokuthula phezu kwayo" kunezela uMnu Cole.
"Yize ubushokobezi bombuso, kanye nokuhlukunyezwa kwamalungelo abantu kungagcini e-US, yibo abasebenzisa i-Shannon Airport ukulwa nezimpi zobudlova eMpumalanga Ephakathi," kusho uJohn Lannon waseShannonwatch "Siyaphikisana nokusetshenziswa kwezempi yase-US eShannon futhi thina. siphikisane nezinqubomgomo zase-US eziholela ekungqubuzaneni kunokuba sizixazulule, ngakho-ke kubalulekile ukuthi sibonise ukuphikisa kwethu zonke izinhlobo zokusekela okuyiphutha kwalezi zinqubomgomo lapha e-Ireland."
