Hey everyone, check out this great speech by Eric Garris, the founder and director of Antiwar.com, at the Perdana Peace Forum in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia about the difference the web has made for those who oppose the warfare state.
“U.S. politicians are confused by the Internet. They have for years trumpeted military force as the best vehicle for changing humanity. With the Internet, we see the precise opposite principles and methods in play. Whereas American politicians believe themselves to be examples for the world to follow, even as they wage aggressive war, the Internet is an example of what the world’s billions of people are capable of, when only left in peace to cooperate, exchange, and share ideas freely with one another. The Internet unites and connects and uplifts humanity in ways that the U.S. empire never could, not with all the military bases and nuclear weapons in the world.”
