“Non-violence is not a weapon of the weak. It is the strength of the courageous. It is the power to resist injustice without hatred, confront oppression without cruelty & build peace through dignity, not domination.” -- UN Secretary General António Guterres

The leaders of the civil rights movement demonstrated the power of non-violence, both as a tactic and as a guiding moral principle. As we celebrate the International Day of Non-violence, let us carry forward their enduring wisdom in the continued struggles for justice today.

It's not just Iran. Somalia has gotten remarkably little media attention, even as the Trump admin has dropped 2x more bombs than the Bush, Obama, and Biden administrations *combined* in just 20 months. After decades of failed military approaches, it's clear more bombs won't bring peace.

Amid profound national grief, those at FCNL warned: "War will only compound the tremendous assault on humanity that has already occurred. War is not the answer.” Today, we can honor this anniversary by reckoning with the legacy of the post-9/11 wars, and by working to build a more peaceful future.

President Trump's boat strikes are illegal, immoral, and ineffective. And as @seharrison7.bsky.social explains, they are a dangerous component of America's decline toward authoritarianism. ⬇️ www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Trump’s boat strikes are a fitting example of a tyrannical government’s actions. The power he claims has no limiting principles. He is declaring groups—including fake ones—as enemies and adding them to a classified kill list; he has commanded the summary execution of hundreds of people; and the U.S. military has acted at his direction.

Such is a blueprint to go after his perceived enemies at home.

This should be a national scandal. Along with the U.S. military's boat strikes, the CIA is also secretly murdering and disappearing people in the waters off South America. The families of the victims deserver answers, and Congress has a responsibility to stop this senseless, illegal killing.
