Please join Veterans For Peace as we give pause on this day of remembering the 100th Anniversary of the signing of the Armistice of 1918, ending World War 1, the bloodiest and most destructive war in the history of humankind, what we have become in this country. A country of unending war with a Pentagon that consumes over half of our tax dollars, the world’s largest arms dealer and where politicians no longer even speak of Peace and Genocide is now ok and supported by our government. Remembering that it was a day about Peace and was to be the War to End All Wars. Let us Reclaim Armistice Day and become once again a Nation and a World committed to Peace “through good will and mutual understanding.”We will gather at the monument at 44th Ave N in Minneapolis at 10:45 am and commence with our bell ringing at 11:00 am. Also some will march from 33rd and Victory Memorial Drive to the monument passing by the markers of those lives lost in WW1 beginning at 9:30am.
