INTRODUCTION:
Below is a draft of the planned introduction to the panal discussion to be presented by the moderator, Juan Wilson:
Aloha to all of you, Tonight Oceans4Peace presents a panel discussion and talk story. Our subject tonight is the War on the Ocean and RIMPAC 2014. We'll focus on Jeju Island, Okinawa and Hawaii. BATTLEGROUND OVERVIEW (see below). The Pacific Ocean has been used as a sushi bar, a strip mine, a junk yard, a toilet bowl, a bombing range, and a nuclear wasteland. But underlying the gloss there are many ongoing and overlapping military activities in the Pacific that we do not see advertised and that are deeply troubling. A pattern emerges that clarifies the purpose of the Trans-Pacific Parternship (or TPP)…. It is is in effect a demand for the surrender of the Pacific Ocean to America's Asian Pivot. This downward spiral must be stopped - And being informed helps! |
