An Open Letter to the U.S Senate: “The United States is Toying with Nuclear War”

Global Research News published an open letter signed by over 30 U.S. peace and civil activists, calling upon U.S. Senators to reject S. 452, the bill to provide lethal weapons to the Government of Ukraine.

They warn:

“Expanding NATO to Russia’s border and arming Russia’s neighbors threatens something worse than disaster. The United States is toying with nuclear war.”

Nuland’s role is targetted, as is the Ukrainian fascist element:

“U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and U.S. Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt played significant roles in orchestrating the political crisis that led to a violent coup overthrowing Ukraine’s elected President. Nuland not only exclaimed ‘Fuck the EU!’ on that recorded phone call, but she also seemed to decide on the new prime minister: ‘Yats is the guy.’

“The Maidan protests were violently escalated by neo-Nazis and by snipers who opened fire on police. When Poland, Germany, and France negotiated a deal for the Maidan demands and an early election, neo-Nazis instead attacked the government and took over. The U.S. State Department immediately recognized the coup government, and Yatsenyuk was indeed installed as Prime Minister….

The letter concludes:

“We routinely recognize the financial corruption of the U.S. government in domestic policymaking. We shouldn’t blind ourselves to it in matters of foreign policy. There may be a flag waving, but there is nuclear war looming, and that’s a bit more important.”
