Thoughts and opinions from the Center

Center For Nonviolence Community Alliance Page – April 2022

Rulers divide the world into worthy and unworthy victims, those we are allowed to pity, such as Ukrainians enduring the hell of modern warfare, and those suffering is minimized, dismissed, or ignored. The terror we and our allies carry out against Iraqi, Palestinian, Syrians, Libyan, Somali and Yemeni civilians is part of the regrettable cost of war. We, echoing the emptying promises from Moscow, claim we didn’t target civilians. Rulers always paint their militaries as humane, there to serve and protect. Collateral damage happens, but it is regrettable. This lie can only be sustained among those who are unfamiliar with the explosive ordinance and large kill zones of missiles, iron fragmentation bombs, mortar, artillery and tank shells, and belt-fed machine guns. This [separation] into worthy and unworthy victims, is a key component of propaganda, especially in war.
