David Swanson,
author of “War Is a Lie” and co-founder of warisacrime.org says the City Council
of Charlottesville, Virginia has voted for a resolution opposing the launching
of a war on Iran.
“We think it was
the first city in the United States to officially pass a resolution urging the
Congress and the president of the United States not to engage in any military
actions against Iran,” Swanson told Press TV's U.S. Desk in an interview on
Wednesday.
“I've begun
hearing from quite a few towns and cities around the country from citizens in
towns and cities around the country that they want to try to do the same thing,”
he said.
“We certainly
hope that it helps and we hope that people in Iran as well as in the rest of the
world hear the news and understand that many of us do not want a war,” Swanson
concluded.
