The bellicose foreign policy of the U.S. continues to fuel instability and war worldwide in misguided efforts to attain global hegemony. In Europe, the Mideast, and the Pacific, U.S. covert and overt actions are undermining political stability and endangering peace.
The webinar will explain how this process works, review the historic record, and address the dangers posed by continuation of covert and overt U.S. actions that harm other nations and threaten our own national security.
Panelists:
Matthew Hoh has been a Senior Fellow with the Center for International Policy since 2010. In 2009, Matthew resigned in protest from his post in Afghanistan with the State Department over the American escalation of the war. He advocates a foreign policy centered on diplomacy, human rights, and international cooperation, rather than militarism. He is a disabled veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps who served in Iraq.
Dr. Jill Stein was the Green Party candidate for President in 2024, 2016, and 2012. Jill advocates for cutting military spending, ending U.S. interventionist wars, and closing overseas military bases. She supports replacing militarism with diplomacy, promoting international cooperation, and respecting international law. Her approach prioritizes addressing the root causes of conflict, such as poverty, climate change, and inequality, and redirecting resources toward global humanitarian aid and development.
Daniel Kovalik, a human rights lawyer and author, is a strong critic of U.S. interventionist foreign policies. He opposes regime change operations, economic sanctions, and military interventions, arguing that these tactics often violate international law and worsen conditions in affected countries. Kovalik emphasizes the importance of respecting national sovereignty and addressing global issues like poverty and inequality through cooperation rather than coercion.
