About Us

  "If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever" - George Orwell declared in 1948 from the pages of his novel "1984", and to this day, nearly 80 years later, this truth remains unrefuted. We see daily, if not hourly, how even democracy - the highest manifestation of freedom and humanity - is being imposed worldwide using this very same pattern: someone's boot, typically the boot of the stronger, stamping on the face of whoever has been designated, for whatever reason, as a dissident.
People fight for territories they will never possess, for resources that will be divided among others - those who unleash wars for their own selfish interests - for ideas that have suddenly divided the population of this planet along national lines, and for religions, each of which, at its core, calls us to tolerance and humanity.
  If we analyze the period covering the last hundred years, from 1926 to 2026, we can conclude that during this timeframe, the number of days - not years, but specifically days—in which humanity did not engage in wars or local conflicts is zero. Even after the end of the terrifying Second World War, remembered by the world for its colossal human casualties and inherently inhuman, senseless war crimes, peace did not prevail on this planet, which shows that we have not learned the lesson. The world plunged into a series of local military conflicts - the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Arab-Israeli wars - as well as dozens of bloody wars of independence and civil conflicts in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
  Today, the strategy of resolving all disagreements - whether political, economic, or even social - exclusively through military means, by exercising the right of the strong, has become an accepted norm. No one is surprised anymore when missiles and bombs are deployed first, and only later, if the objective is not achieved, do politicians decide to sit at the negotiating table. The war between Russia and Ukraine, the conflict in the Middle East - unleashed by the US and Israel, but which rapidly engulfed a number of countries and caused severe damage to the global economy - and the attempt to drag Taiwan into a war with a disproportionately more powerful China: it is highly unlikely that all of this is being done to raise the standard and quality of living for the population and to establish world peace.
  Statistics clearly indicate that no military conflict, even a victorious one, has brought any dividends to the citizens of the countries whose politicians initiated the clash. All that ordinary citizens receive as a consequence of such controversial decisions is the news of the deaths of their relatives and loved ones - who typically lay down their lives for someone else's interests and fabricated ideals - along with the additional tax burden that almost invariably accompanies any military conflict. But tell me, has a single politician or a single military leader ever asked the people, on whose behalf a military conflict is launched, whether they actually need it and whether they are willing to participate in such a thing?
  At present, we are the citizens of various countries who have established the "Global Citizens Against War "1984"", do not call upon you to oppose the current authorities within the borders of the states where you reside. Our shared objective is to convey our will to those in power: the time has come to stop the arms race and redirect the freed-up resources toward constructive goals. Today, weapons systems - most of which are strictly offensive in nature and are highly unlikely to be used for defensive purposes, despite attempts to convince us otherwise - are developing at a far greater pace than technologies aimed at the progress and service of humanity.

  We, and we alone, have the right to demand that those to whom we have delegated the authority to govern our states reassess their priorities. We must demand an end to the cultivation of senseless and inhumane conflicts that yield profits solely for the corporations of the military-industrial complex, which reap colossal profits from human misery. We have no one to fight. We live within the borders of our countries, on our own land; no one is attacking us, no one is encroaching upon our property, and no one is attempting to eradicate our culture or rewrite our history. We do not want to go to war with anyone, if only because no one is striving to go to war with us. Furthermore, we are opposed to democracy being imposed through mass murder. Every individual has their own path and their own values, and provided these values pose no threat to the rest of the population of planet Earth, we have no right to dictate how they should live, what language they should speak, or what words they should use to address the Almighty.
  Yes, today there are not so many of us, and the voices of those who advocate for peace - against all wars, conflicts, and acts of aggression - do not yet sound as loud as we would like. But everything is changing, and in the very near future, we will be heard. We will be heard, and they will no longer be able to ignore us. Because we are the sole source of power in any country. We are the people, and we cannot be ignored, because it is the people who are the foundation of any state.
«Being in a minority, even a minority of one, did not make you mad. There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad» - George Orwell, novel "1984", 1948
