The World is Falling Apart: From THE War Criminals to the CoVax Pushers editorials

By Cindy Sheehan People called me “crazy” when I demanded accountability for the war criminals in the Bush regime, and “racist” when I demanded the same for the Obama posers. Never stopping, we protested wars through the entire Trump business and tried to hold him accountable for his campaign promises to end the wars. Genocide Joe has escalated crimes against humanity and crimes against peace to an unprecendented new height. Why does Genocide Joe feel confident in his crimes? Because no member of the “ruling-class” has been held accountable for a very long time.

It is hard to ignore the current state of the world, from the scamdemic to the ongoing wars and humanitarian crises. What is even more concerning is the failure to hold war criminals accountable, and the pressure to take a vaccine that has caused more harm than good. As peace activists, it is our responsibility to demand justice. In this ‘Stack, we will explore the current state of the world and why we must stand up against those who push the Covid vaccine and those who commit war crimes.

Firstly, let’s talk about the failure to hold war criminals accountable. It is no secret that atrocities continue to occur in conflict zones. Not even looking to the recent, or distant past, in the ongoing Israeli genocide against Palestinians to the proxy-war in Ukraine, innocent civilians are targeted, and war crimes go unpunished. The lack of accountability undermines the rule of law and perpetuates cycles of violence. International institutions like the International Criminal Court (ICC) have been established to hold individuals accountable for crimes against humanity, yet political interference and lack of cooperation from governments have hindered their effectiveness. We must demand that those who commit war crimes be held accountable, regardless of their status and political power.

Secondly, let’s address the Covid vaccine pushers. While vaccines have had some limited usefulness in the past, the Covid vaccine has raised valid concerns. Reports of severe side effects, including death, have been reported worldwide, yet some individuals and organizations continue to push the vaccine on others. The mainstream media have been complicit in propagating pro-vaccination propaganda, while anyone who questions its safety is labeled as an “anti-vaxxer” (as if that’s a bad thing). The reality is that taking the Covid vaccine is a personal choice, and individuals should have the right to make informed decisions about their health without coercion or pressure.

Furthermore, the mandate to take the vaccine has led to more division within society. Those who choose not to take the vaccine are often ostracized and shamed, leading to further polarization. It is essential to recognize that everyone’s body is different, and medical decisions should be informed based on individual circumstances, not blanket mandates imposed by the government.

In conclusion, it is clear that the world is on the brink of a systemic breakdown in health. From war crimes to vaccine pushers, we must stand up for justice and truth. As peace activists, we must continue to amplify marginalized voices and demand accountability for those who perpetrate violence. The failure to do so is a disservice to humanity and undermines the global efforts towards peace and justice.

Cindy Lee Sheehan is an American anti-war activist, whose son, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed by enemy action during the Iraq War. She attracted national and international media attention in August 2005 for her extended antiwar protest at a makeshift camp outside President George W. Bush’s Texas ranch—a stand that drew both passionate support and criticism. Sheehan ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 2008. She was a vocal critic of President Barack Obama’s foreign policy. Her memoir, Peace Mom: A Mother’s Journey Through Heartache to Activism, was published in 2006. In an interview with The Daily Beast in 2017, Sheehan continued to hold her critical views towards George W. Bush, while also criticizing the militarism of Donald Trump.

Ms.Sheehan was the 2012 vice-presidential nominee of the Peace and Freedom Party, and received 1.2% of the statewide vote in the 2014 California gubernatorial election.
