Message from Italy - Prepare for peace

Letter from Italy

Hello Bruce, how are you?

I hope well and that we can continue in the struggle for Peace.

I wanted to update you on my interest in the geopolitical situation, and as you know, in Europe there is the wretched arms race. And the Italian government is becoming the most warmongering of all other European states.

Under the pretext that the U.S. and Italy have always been allies (all things considered, the American and Italian peoples have always been on good terms), so they try not to create diplomatic friction, but when there is war, then Italy has become the strategic nation in the Mediterranean because it has the largest number of NATO bases in all of Europe. You know that I am extremely anti-arms and if I could I would dismantle NATO anywhere in the world.

Recently our Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, in order to enhance her policy (which I think is dangerously bellicose), wanted to justify 5 percent of GDP in military spending by quoting the famous Latin phrase: SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM.

All our rulers make themselves look good when they visit the Pope and praise him because He fights for Peace, but when they leave the Vatican they go back to talking about war.

So I decided to make a provocation. I managed to register a meaningful web domain, this one:

https://www.sivispacemparapacem.it/   

(If you want peace prepare for peace)

And I am sending it to everyone I know, especially also to those institutional politicians who do nothing for Peace.

It would be very useful and important for all pacifist groups in the world to organize to make coalition (with each other).

So that the People taking to the streets would be in unison more representative and more incisive. ​

Thank you for your kind attention.

Best Regards.​

Domenico Varacalli
