  • Résumé

  • The Opening Session of The Merchants of Death War Crimes Tribunal began on November 12, 2023. This People’s Tribunal will hold accountable — through testimony of witnesses and documentary evidence — four U.S. weapons manufacturers which produce and sell products that attack and kill not only combatants but non-combatants as well. These four defendants— Raytheon, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, General Atomics—are representative of the entire U.S. War Industry. On November 10, 2022, the four defendants were served with subpoenas and asked to participate. All four defendants declined. This Tribunal alleges these weapons manufacturers have committed War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. The Judges of the Tribunal will hear the evidence, render a verdict, and issue an extensive report. Testifying will be Dr. Cornel West, Richard Falk, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, Norman Solomon, John Pilger, Jeremy Kuzmarov, Christian Sorensen, Jeffrey Stern, William Astore, Aisha Jumaan, Matt Aikens, Marie Dennis, Dr. Kelly Denton-Borhaug, and numerous others. The testimonies of the witnesses for the Tribunal have been video-recorded during the last year as investigative teams identified witnesses and elicited their testimony. This included testimonies from the victims of war, military and weapons analysts, lawyers, journalists, moral philosophers and theologians. Once the Opening Session concludes, the entire Tribunal will be streamed via video links over consecutive weeks examining War Crimes in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Gaza, and Yemen. The role of Lobbying, Think Tanks, the “Revolving Door,” and other means by which these predatory capitalists enrich themselves through war will be explored. These recorded testimonies will be presented to the Jurors of the Tribunal and a worldwide audience (via livestream). The first segment of the Tribunal aired on November 12, 2023. The Merchants of Death War Crimes Tribunal was recently recognized by the US Peace Memorial Foundation for its work in opposing militarism and holding United States weapons manufacturers accountable for creating needless war and suffering across the globe.

    Military Moral Injury: Dr. Kelly Denton-Borhaug
    Feb 15 2025

    A fascinating conversation with Dr. Kelly Denton-Borhaug, whose work began soon after the events of 9/11 with her investigation into what she calls “U.S. war-culture.” In more recent years, Denton-Borhaug’s focus moved to “military moral injury.” This invisible epidemic (linked to the frighteningly high numbers of servicemember and veteran suicides) springs from the intolerable moral pain and suffering experienced by too many of the 1% fighting on the front lines of our war-culture.
