As we battle to slow down and reverse the outrageous juggernaut for missile defense, let us try to point out that it's not about defense--its about "dominating and controlling the military use of space to protect US interests and investments"--in the words of the US Space Command's Vision 2020 document. You can print it out at http://www.spacecom.af.mil/usspace/index.htm (click on Vision 2020). I urge that you forward copies of it to your elected leaders and ask them if this is what they think America should be about in the 21st Century. Also, does anyone seriously believe that we won't have competition in space from Russia and China? Do you think they will give us free reign to rule the world? That's the same kind of thinking that thought we could monopolize the secret of the bomb--we all know how long that lasted!! Let's prevent an arms race in space. Keep that last frontier for peace--and don't let them get away with calling it "missile defense". Alice Slater Subject: The Nader Campaign and the Future of U.S. Left Electoral Politics Complete article at http://www.monthlyreview.org/201editr.htm The unlikely postelection contest between Al Gore and George W. Bush, which ultimately led to the anointing of Bush as president by the Republican majority on the US Supreme Court (despite the fact that Bush received fewer popular votes than Gore both in the United States as a whole and most likely in Florida as well--the state that gave Bush his electoral college win), has tended to erase all other developments associated with the election. But all of this should not cause us to forget that the Ralph Nader Green Party campaign for the presidency was arguably the most extraordinary phenomenon in US left politics in many years. On election day he drew nearly three million votes, representing about 3 percent of the vote. Even former Vice-President Henry Wallace did not fare so well in his third-party run for the presidency in 1948, the last progressive third-party presidential campaign of this nature and magnitude. Although exit polls show that Nader received few racial minority votes (a major weakness of his campaign), he nonetheless drew his strongest support from those without a college education, those with incomes less than thirty thousand dollars a year, and those without full-time employment. Until the intense scare campaign instigated by the Democrats in the final two weeks before the election, Nader was getting as much as 7 percent in some tracking polls. Nader ran quite far to the left on issue after issue; this was no warmed-over version of mainstream liberal Democratic politics. The Green platform was an antineoliberal progressive platform that any socialist could support openly. At the same time, Nader enjoyed tremendous and enthusiastic crowds on the campaign trail, often appearing before paying crowds that ranged from ten to fifteen thousand with hardly any advance work. Were there no public opinion polls, one who merely watched the size and nature of crowd responses to the candidates on the campaign trail might have thought Nader the likely winner or at least a strong contender for victory. Moreover, these crowds were dominated by young people. Such a response would have been unthinkable one or two decades ago. Nader was the best-suited and arguably the only feasible candidate to make a progressive third-party run in 2000. He came of age in the 1960s when progressive political figures had some opportunity to gain exposure in the media culture; he has long been a household name. (As Nader notes, with the rightward shift of our political landscape and the hypercommercialism of our media culture, serious progressive critics of the status quo have had far less opportunity to gain national exposure in the past two decades, unless they are political humorists like Michael Moore or people who become celebrities for other reasons and then discuss politics, like Susan Sarandon.) He is also highly regarded for a list of accomplishments in the public interest that is nothing short of stunning. Nader turned to electoral politics only when it became clear that the degree of corporate domination over both parties made the sort of public interest work he did nearly impossible to pursue with any hope of success. Nader is not a socialist, but he is a principled democrat who has the courage to call for sweeping reforms in the political economy when it is apparent that corporate domination and class inequality are undermining democracy. Nader spoke brilliantly in plain language to everyday Americans from a range of backgrounds about the need for sweeping structural reform, a lost art among many on the left. The issue that was the foundation of the Nader campaign was his opposition to the World Trade Organization (WTO), North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the entirety of the global procapitalist trade, investment, and regulatory system. Unlike nationalist opponents of the WTO like Pat Buchanan, Nader's opposition was on democratic grounds: these agencies were not subject to popular control in the United States or elsewhere and were therefore illegitimate. Moreover, Nader was and is arguably the world's foremost expert on exactly how these institutions of global capitalism are generating disastrous results across the planet for workers, consumers, and the environment. Nader and the Greens also favored deep cuts in the US military budget and apparatus and opposed US material support for reactionary regimes and policies around the world. Nader, who drew 19 percent of the total Muslim vote (72 percent of which went to Bush), declared that there will be no peace in the Middle East "without justice for the Palestinians." In sum, Nader and the Greens offered a progressive and nonimperialist foreign policy that was decidedly outside the "bipartisan consensus" that is almost never debated in the US electoral arena. This is a point that merits consideration because the discussion of the Nader campaign, even on the left, has focused almost entirely on his critique of the domestic imbalance of power, giving very slight attention the international aspects. The United States is the dominant imperial power in the world and this is the central unspoken truth of our times. In the global capitalist order, the US state has a number of responsibilities: to keep the system functioning; to control the underlying populations; to safeguard the United States as the center of the international financial system; to maintain the United States (and, specifically, US capitalists/corporations) in the top perch in the imperialist pecking order; and to prevent countries from breaking away from the system of global controls. For these reasons, in addition to domestic pressure from the military-industrial complex, the United States maintains, by a very wide margin, the world's largest military, though it has no rival whatsoever in any traditional sense. Although the wider foreign policy implications of Nader's campaign were almost never reported in the media, they clearly represented a threat to the global status quo. Indeed, Nader the candidate never got the opportunity to communicate these or any other positions to the great mass of Americans because his campaign was absolutely butchered in the news media. Nader's coverage in the New York Times resembled, in some respects, the coverage Andrei Sakharov got from Pravda and Izvestia back in the 1970s. This should be no surprise but it was sobering nonetheless. Without gobs of money to purchase TV advertising--the lingua franca of US politics--or, better yet, without the sort of massive grassroots operation that could overcome the media blackout, many citizens never had any idea that Nader was running vigorously or what his positions were on the issues he was addressing. (If the winner of the election were determined by who spent the least for each of their votes or who received the least amount of news coverage per vote, Nader would have won in a landslide.) Most of the media attention Nader did receive was obsessed with how his candidacy would affect the fortunes of Democrat Al Gore. This was true even on the left and among progressives. Numerous leftists who supported Nader on the issues opposed his candidacy, often with startling bitterness, because it would take votes away from Gore, the "lesser of two evils"--which became a mantra to a greater extent than any time since 1968. The 2000 race highlighted again how the US electoral laws have a deeply conservative and undemocratic bias that increases dramatically the degree of difficulty for both third parties and progressives. In our view, the Nader campaign was the electoral side of the mass organizing that produced the extraordinary demonstrations in Seattle in 1999 and in Washington, DC, and at the two national political conventions in 2000. As with those demonstrations, there is no guarantee that this upsurge in activism will produce a sustained movement capable of fundamentally changing the existing order. But we believe the evidence suggests that there are new openings for popular left organizing in the United States, and that the chance to organize for progressive electoral candidates is better than at any time in memory. It is possible that a left electoral movement can, within a generation, become a dominant political force in the nation. It may not be an explicitly socialist movement that will invoke the icons of the left that MR readers cut their teeth on but it will be a progressive anticorporate movement by any measure. There is an important and necessary role for the socialist left in this movement. The implications of these developments go well beyond the United States, in view of the US role as the dominant global capitalist power. If a viable prodemocracy, anti-imperialist movement can emerge here, it will improve the possibilities dramatically for socialists and progressives worldwide.

That's in nine days. There is not much time to influence him before he goes. High on the list of topics they talk about will be NMD/Star Wars. The position of the UK is absolutely vital for NMD/Star Wars to proceed, as it requires use of the Fylingdales facility, and the new SBIRS (Space-based infrared Satellite) facility at Menwith Hill. There is a possibility that Blair may cave in to Bush's demands to make use of these facilities for NMD. You are therefore urged to write/fax prime minister Tony Blair (especially if you are in the UK), asking him to strongly oppose national missile defence during his visit. (Fax number +44-207-925-0918) A sample letter is below. Please rewrite/shorten this creatively. If you are in the US, you are urged to write to President Bush,(Letter below), asking him not to proceed with NMD/Star Wars. (Sample Letter below, also on http://www.abolition2000.org/action/saynotostarwars.html) The letter to Tony Blair is based on one on the BASIC website, to all non - US governments. You can adapt that letter if you live outside either the US OR the UK. That letter can be found on: 1) SUGGESTED LETTER TO TONY BLAIR Send this if you are outside the US, especially if you are in the UK - Please customise it creatively To: Prime Minister Tony Blair, +44-207-925-0918 Re: Please Convey Opposition to Missile Defence Scheme Dear Tony Blair, I am writing to you in view of your forthcoming visit to President Bush on Feb 23-24. I urge you to express as strongly as possible the opposition of the UK to any NMD system, and to refuse use of the Menwith Hill and Fylingdales facilities and any other UK facilities for this purpose. The deployment of NMD and TMD (Theater Missile defence) will have serious implications for the proliferation of nuclear weapons. Russia and China have made it clear that they will increase their own nuclear offensive capabilities in order to counter NMD. This will set back attempts to reduce nuclear weapons severely and may lead to another nuclear arms race. Serious developments in this direction are already taking place. China has additional concerns over the possible use of theatre missile defence in Taiwan. In addition, the deployment of NMD will either completely destroy or fundamentally weaken the Anti- Ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty, seen internationally as the cornerstone of international arms control. This will have serious consequences for maintaining and strengthening other international agreements such as Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). NMD has been opposed by a wide range of organisations and groups, ranging from 354 major NGOs representing millions of people worldwide, to 50 of the US Nobel prize-winners in physics, to generals and church congregations. It has also been opposed by every major international grouping represented in the UN General Assembly. For all of these reasons, I urge you to use all the diplomatic influence at your disposal, particularly in your forthcoming visit, to impress upon the incoming Bush administration the UK's opposition to the NMD system. I also urge you to make clear to the Bush administration that your government will refuse to cooperate in any way with the NMD scheme, and that the use of The SBIRS facility at Menwith Hill,Fylingdales, and other UK facilities will not be permitted for it. NMD is a scheme that is unlikely ever to work, against a threat that may never materialize and that, in any case, is better dealt with in other ways. It will cost billions better spent elsewhere, and will make further progress toward the total and unequivocal elimination of nuclear weapons - an objective to which the United States as well as all other governments are committed - much more difficult, if not impossible. I therefore urge you to impress on the US government the importance of not proceeding with NMD, but rather of proceeding with the Bush administrations other major committments in nuclear arms control , namely deep cuts in warhead numbers, and of reductions in alert status of strategic weapons systems. (Signed) (Your name) (2) SUGGESTED LETTER TO BUSH, POWELL, RICE, RUMSFELD Send this if you are in the United States - Please customise creatively Customise and adapt/rewrite this creatively please. TO: GEORGE BUSH, PRESIDENT, 1-202-456-2461, 1-202-456-6218, 1-202-456-6201, COLIN POWELL, SECRETARY OF STATE, +1-202-647-6047, CONDOLEEZA RICE, NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISER, 1-202-456-2883, DONALD RUMSFELD, SECRETARY FOR DEFENCE, +1-703-695-1149, RE: PLEASE CANCEL MISSILE DEFENCE SCHEME Dear President George Bush, Secretary for Defence Rumsfeld, Security Adviser Condoleeza Rice, and Secretary of State Colin Powell, I am writing to you to convey my dismay that your administration may proceed with an enlarged version of the ill-concieved 'National Missile Defence' ('Star Wars') scheme. The deployment of NMD will make it much harder, if not impossible, to achieve vital arms control objectives. Russia and China have made it clear that they will increase their own nuclear offensive capabilities in order to counter NMD. This will set back attempts to reduce nuclear weapons severely and may lead to another nuclear arms race. National Missile Defence in its current form, has failed two out of its three operational tests and has been critiqued by the US scientific establishment as fundamentally flawed. More importantly, Russia and China as well as the US's own allies have made it clear that they regard the preservation of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty as paramount. The ABM treaty cannot be modified in a way that would allow the deployment of NMD, and the US should not walk away from it. NMD has been opposed by groups ranging from 354 major NGOs representing millions of people worldwide, to 50 of the US's Nobel prizewinners in physics, to generals and church people. Non-US governments worldwide, including close US allies, have strongly opposed NMD. NMD is a scheme that is unlikely ever to work, against a threat that may never materialize and that is in any case better dealt with in other ways. It will cost billions better spent elsewhere, and will make further progress toward the total and unequivocal elimination of nuclear weapons - an objective to which the US as well as all other governments are committed - - much more difficult if not impossible. I therefore urge you to drop the NMD proposal and to focus your efforts on the vital objectives of deep reductions in warhead numbers, and reductions in the alert status of weapons, to which you committed yourself during your campaign. (Signed) (Your name) 3) March 1999 Press release re Menwith Hill SBIRS facility PRESS RELEASE HMG [Her Majesty's Government] and the United Sates Government are pleased to announce that the European Relay Ground Station (RGS-E) for the new Space Based Infra-Red System (SBIRS) will be established at RAF Menwith Hill. The RGS-E will provide additional relay capility of SBIRS, and its establishment at RAF Menwith Hill will capitalise on the existing infrastructure. HMG welcomes the opportunity to strengthen US/UK co-operation in this field. SBIRS is the world-wide satellite-based system providing early warning of ballistic missile launches. It has been developed to upgrade the ageing US Defense Support Program (DSP) satellite system. Construction will include a one-storey 10,000 square feet concrete and steel building adjacent to and architecturally blending with the existing building. Up to four new radomes approximately 60 feet in height and similar to the existing radomes [there are now 29] will also be required. Local planning consent will be sought in the usual way.

"The time has come for scientists to pledge themselves to renounce work on weapons of mass destruction," declared Dr. Joseph Rotblat, the Nobel Laureate and physicist who left the Manhattan Project for reasons of conscience. Rotblat is one of the initial signers of the Scientists' and Engineers' Pledge. "I fully endorse your campaign... At a time when science plays such a powerful role in the life of society, when the whole destiny of mankind may hinge on the results of scientific research, it is incumbent on all scientists to be fully conscious of that role and conduct themselves accordingly. I appeal to my fellow scientists to remember their responsibility to humanity," Rotblat wrote to the four organizations launching the pledge campaign, echoing his 1995 acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize. The Pledge sponsors will be staffing a booth at the AAAS meeting in San Francisco. The organizations originating the Pledge campaign are: Natural Resources Defense Council (Washington, DC), Los Alamos Study Group (Santa Fe, NM), Tri-Valley CAREs (Livermore, CA) and Western States Legal Foundation (Oakland, CA). "This is part of a multi-faceted, international campaign to discourage people from working on nuclear weapons," explained Greg Mello, director of the Los Alamos Study Group, which monitors the Department of Energy (DOE) nuclear weapons design labs in New Mexico. "The so-called 'Stockpile Stewardship' program at the labs is nuclear weapons work, no matter how it's disguised," Mello added. "Scientist and engineers today need to know that the U.S. nuclear weapons laboratories are busy developing new, destabilizing nuclear weapons, including earth penetrating 'mini-nukes' and re-designed, more accurate long-range warheads," said Marylia Kelley, executive director of Tri-Valley CAREs, a Livermore, CA-based "watchdog" group that monitors activities at the DOE's nearby Lawrence Livermore National Lab. "The effort of these labs to recast their work on nuclear weapons as 'nuclear weapons science' does not change the essential fact that these institutions are continuing to develop nuclear weapons," declared Christopher Paine, senior researcher for NRDC's nuclear program. The groups originating this Pledge campaign will combine educational activities to raise awareness of the guises under which nuclear weapons work hides, including in the U.S. through its "Stockpile Stewardship" program, with a clarion call to spark the consciences of scientists and engineers. In addition to the Pledge, the campaign will utilize giant billboards and direct outreach to University and laboratory researchers. Dr. Julian Borrill, an astrophysicist at DOE's Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and board member of the Western States Legal Foundation in Oakland, CA, summed up the moral responsibility of today's technical professionals: "As scientists and engineers, we are in a unique position to bring about the demise of weapons of mass destruction. These weapons cannot exist without us -- we design them, we manufacture them, we test them, we maintain them and we deploy them. We make them possible, and, if we choose to, we can make them impossible." Dr. Borrill will be speaking at the press conference Saturday. Other scientists joining the public interest groups in person at the press conference Saturday morning include Dr. Charles Schwartz, Professor of Physics Emeritus at U.C. Berkeley and Dr. Andreas Toupadakis, a nuclear chemist who left the DOE labs last year upon the discovery that his research was being used for weapons. Dr. Zia Mian, a prominent research scientist at Princeton University, will join by phone. Initial signers of the Pledge include, Dr. Joseph Rotblat, Nobel Laureate; Dr. Michio Kaku, Henry Semat Professor of Theoretical Physics, City University of New York; Dr. Charles Schwartz, Professor of Physics Emeritus, University of California, Berkeley; Dr. Andreas Toupadakis, former Staff Research Scientist, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory; Dr. Pervez Hodbhoy, Visiting Professor, Theory Group for Quarks, Hadrons and Nuclei, University of Maryland; and, Dr. Zia Mian, Research Scientist, Princeton University. -- 30 -- A copy of the Scientist' and Engineers' Pledge to Renounce Weapons of Mass Destruction will be posted on the sponsoring groups' web sites.
