American Veterans Honor Memorial Day as a Struggle for Peace

Memorial Day is a day of remembrance. We honor all those who lost their lives in war: soldiers,
civilians, journalists, aid workers, and countless innocent people whose names history may
never record. As veterans, we know the weight of war not in the abstract, but as lived
experience. We carry its memories, its losses, and its consequences long after the battles end.

Today, the world stands at a dangerous crossroads. Wars rage in Ukraine, Gaza, Iran, and other
regions too often ignored by global powers and media alike. Military budgets continue to balloon
while hunger, displacement, climate catastrophe, and economic inequality deepen across
nations. Political leaders speak more easily of escalation than diplomacy.

On this Memorial Day, we reject the idea that endless war is inevitable or patriotic. The truest
way to honor the dead is not to create more of them.

We believe the world urgently needs a renewed international peace movement one rooted in
solidarity across borders, races, religions, and political systems. Ordinary people everywhere
share a common interest in survival, dignity, and justice. Veterans, workers, students,
communities, and human rights advocates must unite to demand ceasefires, diplomacy, nuclear
disarmament, and human needs over militarism.

War is a racket, we know that war enriches the powerful while devastating ordinary families. We
know that every bomb dropped abroad leaves wounds at home as well. And we know peace is
not passive; it requires courage, organization, and moral dedication.

This Memorial Day, we mourn the fallen by working for the living. We recommit ourselves to
building a world where future generations no longer have to sacrifice their lives in wars of
aggression, domination, or profit.

Another world is possible, but only if people everywhere rise together to demand it.

Peace is patriotic.

Party of Communists USA Honors Memorial Day as a Day of Struggle for Peace

On this Memorial Day, we honor the lives of working people sent to fight and die in wars driven
not by the interests of humanity, but by the interests of empire, profit, and domination. We
remember not only the soldiers lost in battle, but also the countless civilians across the world
whose lives have been devastated by decades of U.S. intervention, occupation, sanctions, and
militarism.
The ruling class wraps itself in the language of patriotism while funneling billions into endless
wars, military expansion, and weapons contractors, even as workers at home struggle with
putting food on the table, inadequate healthcare, crumbling infrastructure, and attacks on labor
rights. Memorial Day should not be used to glorify war or silence criticism of imperialism. The
greatest tribute to those who died is to fight for a world where future generations are not
sacrificed for geopolitical power and corporate profit.
We reject the bipartisan consensus that treats war as inevitable and military supremacy as the
foundation of peace. U.S. imperialism continues to fuel instability and suffering around the
globe.
We stand in solidarity with workers and oppressed people in every country who seek peace,
dignity, self-determination, and liberation from exploitation. The struggle against imperialism is
inseparable from the struggle for socialism.
This Memorial Day, we demand:
● An end to endless wars and foreign interventions.
● The closure of overseas military bases.
● Solidarity among working people across borders, not hostility between nations.
● A world built on peace, cooperation, and social justice instead of militarism and empire.
Another world is possible, one where human life is valued more than profit, and where
remembrance means building a future free from war. Forwards ever, backwards never!
