I support #DraftDodgers if they're doing so because they don't believe in wars & want to work at creating more peace.
I don't support draft dodgers who don't work at creating peace & send others to sacrifice their lives for dirty, illegal wars - like the current PedorapistPOTUS.#USpol #geopolitics #WarSurvivorsForPeace #AntiWar #ProPeace #MilitaryDrafts #DontDieForCorruptGovernments #SayNO #RefuseDeployment #ConscientiousObjectors

I highly recommend watching this #documentary to understand how young #Israeli #dissenters / #ConscientiousObjectors feel & the consequences they face for trying to stand for justice. They're in the minority in Israel & are often called traitors by Zionazis. I know some former Israelis in BC who have been ostracized from their families; who refuse to stop being bigoted Zionazis & support more violent land thefts from Palestinians. Dissenters don't get support from a society that has been brainwashed to hate all Arabs - they usually face abuses/harassment for taking moral & ethical stands against occupational forces/violence.
This #DocFilm was made well before Oct 7.
Like all Israeli youth, Atalya is expected to become a soldier. Unlike most, she questions the practices of her country’s military, and becomes determined to challenge this rite of passage. Despite her family’s #political disagreements and personal concerns, she refuses #military duty and is imprisoned for her dissent. Her courage moves those around her to reconsider their own political positions and power to effect change. Objector follows Atalya to prison and beyond, offering a unique window into the Israeli - #Palestinian conflict from the perspective of a young woman who seeks truth and takes a stand for justice.
This documentary was produced by Buried Seed Productions and directed by Molly Stuart. It was first released in 2019.
I Refuse to Fight for Israel

„Israel: Solidarity with refusers in prison
In July, a group of Israeli teenagers publicly declared their refusal to serve in the Israeli military, protesting against the genocide in Gaza and the ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories. With their refusal, these conscientious objectors have called for an end to the war in Gaza and urged others to resist conscription (...).”

„This coming Sunday, August 17, at 10:00 a.m., at the Haifa enlistment camp, Yona Roseman, a 19-year-old from Haifa, will refuse to enlist in protest against the #genocide in Gaza, and will probably be tried and sent to prison. Activists from the #Mesarvot network will accompany her outside the draft office in a demonstration.“

„A growing number of Israeli reservists are choosing not to report for duty, putting further strain on an overextended military amid an ever-widening war.“

I'm proud to share that I was quoted in this story from #CounterCurrents about the recent statement by #VeteransForPeace in support of #Israeli conscientious objectors who are refusing to fight in the wars in #Gaza and #Lebanon.

#OTD in 1943 five #ConscientiousObjectors began a hunger strike at the United States Northeastern Penitentiary in #Lewisburg Pennsylvania, they were soon joined by a sixth.
Forced feeding of the religious and political #pacifists refusing to fight #WWII began October 22nd as they persisted to oppose what they felt was unjust and unconstitutional "Totalitarian" control of their lives. The hunger strike ended in December 1943 when the head of the Federal Bureau of #Prisons, ended the #censorship of their mail but retained the right to read #PrisonerMail. The men were released after the conclusion of World War II.
One of those #LewisburgPrison #HungerStrikers was a theological seminary student named #DaveDellinger who had been educated at Yale and Oxford before joining the Divinity School of NYC Theological Seminary. Dellinger had already learned as an ambulance driver in the #SpanishCivilWar that "whoever won the armed struggle, it would not be the people". Dellinger later worked with the Berrigan brothers, Daniel Ellsberg and helped organize the 1967 protest march that encircled the #Pentagon. Dellinger would later end up as the oldest member of the #Chicago7 protesters, who was acquitted in a show trial alongside Abbie Hoffman in the late 60's. He made trips to Japan to protest #AtomicWeapons, and went to China and North Vietnam, securing the release of captured American servicemen, acting as a go-between with North Vietnamese leader #HoChiMinh.
