Please spread the word and please join us to discuss the recent Israeli and American attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities and military leadership, and how these events are likely to further unfold in the weeks to come, and what it all portends now regarding the prospects for nuclear catastrophe and the goal of abolishing nuclear weapons. We hope to come away with a clear action agenda of what progressive peace patriots MIGHT ACTUALLY DO going forward, in order to de-escalate the latest war and to avoid nuclear war. 

We will be joined by the Honorable Melissa Parke, based in Geneva. She is a longtime international lawyer with the United Nations in Kosovo, Gaza, New York, Lebanon, and Yemen, a longtime Australian Labor Party parliamentarian, and today the Executive Director of the 2017 Nobel Peace laureate International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN). 

 Joining us as well will be Seth Shelden, based in New York. He is a longtime private practice attorney and law professor, a Fulbright Scholar, and today the General Counsel and United Nations Liaison for ICAN. 

 Our moderator will be Dr. Tad Daley, based in Los Angeles. He is a former advisor to Congressman Dennis Kucinich, Congressman John B. Anderson, Congresswoman Diane Watson, U.S. Senator Harris Wofford and U.S. Senator Alan Cranston, author of the book APOCALYPSE NEVER: Forging the Path to a Nuclear Weapon-Free World from Rutgers University Press, and today President of the Americans for Democratic Action Foundation of Southern California.

 Let’s abolish the nuclear abomination. Let’s cast war onto the rubble heap of history. Let’s bring about Peace on Earth.
