Bringing Russian and American citizens together in Peace since 1983.
Dear CCI Friends,
The following article by Fred Weir, Christian Science Monitor journalist for decades, warns us of the dangerous situation we are in with regard to nuclear arms control or lack thereof.
Why is it that most Americans have little to no concern about this issue? It is astounding to me!

Dear CCI Followers,
Krishen Mehta and I have been discussing the tragic dimensions of current U.S. policy.
We have been shocked that China, our chief trading partner, is being blamed for the COVID-19 outbreak and its “cover-up” while they were trying to get the virus under control. Wouldn’t we have done the same? We are also deeply concerned by allegations regarding China and other countries that are mild given our record of foreign interventions over the past decades.
The current psychological projection being used to create China as our enemy is even of greater concern since they too have nuclear weapons!
Please study the “Tragic Folly of Blame” and send to your friends and families.
Dear CCI Friends,
We sit at the most critical point in human history –– the possibility/probability of Nuclear War. Strangely, few Americans are taking this seriously … even though our scientists moved the Doomsday Clock to 100 seconds until midnight a few months ago.
Does it strike you strange that with Nuclear War a strong possibility that both Republicans and Democrats are playing ‘chicken’ with Russia, by allowing U.S. militarism and missile power to push up against Russia’s borders while enabling ISISand other known terrorist groups in Russia’s “near abroad.” What would we do if Russia did the same in our near abroad?
Natylie Baldwin provides the most striking visuals and truth available to us vis-a-vis the potential for Nuclear War in 2020. Read Natylie’s article below, take in the facts … and above all, forward, or better still, copy this article and send to your colleagues, friends and family. We need to be the Paul Revere’s of today’s world, getting information to as many Americans as possible to awaken them from sleepwalking.
Dear CCI Friends,
In our frustration to get our points-of-view to major media outlets, let’s follow David Speedie’s example below by sending “Letters to Editors” to publications that have tens of thousands of readers.
On May 12, David sent “Letters to Editors” to the Financial Times. To his surprise, his letter was printed and he has received emails back supporting his comments.
Please consider emailing “Letters to Editors” to The New York Times, Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, and Washington Post when they post articles with which you disagree … or agree. Be sure submissions are short, preferably 150 words or less.
Dear CCI Friends,
Innumerable Americans are speaking out today on the near insurmountable issues we as a nation face from 2020 forward. It’s near impossible to keep up with all of them.
One voice of considerable importance has come to my attention recently: that is former West Point graduate, 20-year U.S. military, Colonel during the Vietnam War and prolific author, Andrew Bacevich. He is now the first President of the new think-tank, The Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Remember Bacevich’s name. I believe he will be a major voice in the near future. His latest book, The Age of Illusions, has just come out.
Please watch his 12 minute video, Andrew Bacevich On America’s Long-Standing Wars, before reading the following article. After both, let us know what you think.
