That symposium will explore how to resurrect the mission of \u201cnonviolence or non-existence\u201d to stop thermonuclear war, a mission of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Robert Kennedy, and President John F. Kennedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. King became, in the last year of his life, and in the face of clear personal risk, an uncompromising opponent, not only of thermonuclear war, but of modern warfare in any form. In his Christmas message of 1967, he said plainly: \u201cWisdom born of experience should tell us that war is obsolete. There may have been a time when war served as a negative good by preventing the spread and growth of an evil force, but the very destructive power of modern weapons of warfare eliminates even the possibility that war may any longer serve as a negative good. And so, if we assume that life is worth living, if we assume that mankind has a right to survive, then we must find an alternative to war\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It would be tragic indeed if the United States, whose last several presidential administrations, going back to at least the time of President George W. Bush, have explicitly rejected Dr. King\u2019s ideas, including his \u201ccreative nonviolent direct action\u201d in the realm of foreign policy, would now go unchallenged, when that was exactly what King demanded be done in 1967. Rather, it is the duty of all who would follow what King actually said and taught, to now rise in full \u201ctroubling opposition\u201d to the Anglo-American doctrine of \u201cforeign policy through warfare\u201d now promulgated in the trans-Atlantic nations. This is especially true as that criminal force doctrine, masquerading as \u201cthe rule of law,\u201d pertains to the present NATO proxy war against Russia in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. King\u2019s formulation, that \u201cthe choice is no longer between violence and non-violence; the choice is now between non-violence and non-existence,\u201d echoed the words of Pope Paul VI at the United Nations in 1965: \u201cNo more war!! War never again!!\u201d They also echoed President John F. Kennedy\u2019s admonition that \u201cmankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind.\u201d That formulation was accompanied by \u201caction proposals\u201d for joint work with America\u2019s \u201cmortal enemy\u201d the Soviet Union, particularly in the realm of space, in Kennedy\u2019s September 20, 1963, speech at the United Nations General Assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this symposium, however, we particularly wish to look at the international forces of violence that have been used to decapitate nations and institutions whose leaders have stood up not only in opposition to lethal, destructive policies, but in favor of economic development as the only sure path to peace. Recent revelations in the United States concerning the possible involvement of certain intelligence institutions in the assassination of President Kennedy, as well as the dissatisfaction of the King family with the official explanation of the MLK assassination, make this a particularly timely occasion to investigate these concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, it should be noted that Dr. King, not an economist, but a \u201cdrum major for justice,\u201d insisted that the plight of the poor had to be put at the center of politics, that \u201cpeople come first.\u201d He insisted, against the advice of his advisers, to conduct his 1968 Poor People\u2019s Campaign simultaneously with his assault on the war in Vietnam, in order to dramatize his assertion that \u201cnational budgets are moral documents,\u201d and that the wealth of nations should be spent on improving the general welfare, not the accuracy of weapons of mass destruction. The Schiller Institute\u2019s \u201cTen Principles for a New International Security and Development Architecture\u201d are a precise articulation of that aspect of King\u2019s great vision, which has been generally either disregarded, or little noted. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would not only have opposed the war in Europe; he would have proposed an alternative. We can honor his vision of humanity by doing no less.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speakers to include:Ray McGovern, former senior analyst, U.S. Central intelligence Agency (CIA); founding member, Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS)Garland Nixon, Veteran Radio and TV Political AnalystHelga Zepp-LaRouche, founder and leader of the Schiller Institute The Schiller Institute, in accordance with its campaign to promote discussion about the principles necessary for the establishment of a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":94398,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-94397","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-allgemein"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94397","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/25"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=94397"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94397\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":94408,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94397\/revisions\/94408"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/94398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=94397"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=94397"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2.schillermeet.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=94397"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
