Ban Weaponized Drones From the World

Die Arbeitsgruppe Polizei, Geheimdienste & Militär in Aktion Freiheit statt Angst e.V. fordert zum Unterschreiben der Petition gegen militärische Drohnen auf. Die Petition wurde von RootsAction ins Leben gerufen.  (RootsAction ist eine unabhängige Website unterstützt von Jim Hightower, Barbara Ehrenreich, Cornel West, Daniel Ellsberg, Glenn Greenwald, Naomi Klein, Bill Fletcher Jr., Laura Flanders, U.S. Senator James Abourezk, Coleen Rowley, Frances Fox Piven, u.a.).

Die Petition lautet:

Meticulous researchers have documented that U.S. drones are killing many innocent civilians in Pakistan, Yemen and elsewhere.  Drones are making the world less stable and creating new enemies. Their remoteness provides those responsible with a sense of immunity.

Weaponized drones are no more acceptable than land mines, cluster bombs, or chemical weapons.  The world must renounce and forbid their manufacture, possession, or use. Violators must be held accountable.

We, the undersigned organizations and individuals, urge

• the United Nations Secretary General to investigate the concerns of Navi Pillay, the U.N.'s top human rights official, that drone attacks violate international law -- and to ultimately pursue sanctions against nations using, possessing, or manufacturing weaponized drones;
• the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to investigate grounds for the criminal prosecution of those responsible for drone attacks;
• the U.S. Secretary of State, and the ambassadors to the United States from the nations of the world, to support a treaty forbidding the possession or use of weaponized drones;
• President Barack Obama, to abandon the use of weaponized drones, and to abandon his "kill list" program regardless of the technology employed;
• the Majority and Minority Leaders of the U.S. House and Senate, to ban the use or sale of weaponized drones.
