Here is the summation of the future anti-militarism in part since the first war to end all wars. NUREMBURG TRIALS (1945-46 )
The U.S. judge who chaired the trials wrote into international law that the planning and doing of aggressive war is the supreme international crime on the planet earth, as it actuates all other crimes high, low, big, and small. He further says that it is the supreme international crime whether Germany does it or the U.S.A. does it. The Kellog-Briand treaty signed on to by 63 countries in 1922, says that aggressive war must be banned as foreign policy,as the weaponry is so destructive that other methods must be found to settle disputes between nations. The founding of the United Nations and its source Charter says that the UN is for the ending of aggressive war, and that the entire United Nations is for the making of war just a long distant memory to the future generations. This shows that the United Nations Security Council, controlled by the Imperialist-Camp has betrayed the Charter which is the majority General Assembly and allowed aggressive war to be the way forward as the United Nations foreign policy. As evidenced by its wrongheaded destruction of Libya, in which tens of thousands were killed and hundreds of thousands wounded, while the society was reduced to rubble. Dismantle NATO. Workers of the world, unite!!
