Hawzah News Agency- The event, convened at the ABNA conference hall, featured an address by Ken O'Keefe, a former US Marine turned human rights activist and outspoken critic of Western militarism. O'Keefe, who renounced his American citizenship in protest against US foreign policy, has long campaigned against what he describes as the systematic crimes committed by the United States, ranging from the historical genocide of Indigenous peoples to Washington's ongoing interventions across the globe.
Organizers say the session aimed to draw a direct historical line between centuries of state-sponsored violence and contemporary atrocities carried out under the banner of American exceptionalism. The discussion placed particular emphasis on the Minab tragedy, framing it within the broader pattern of imperial aggression and crimes against humanity that critics argue define the true legacy of the United States — a legacy stretching from the near-extermination of Native American nations to the present-day bloodshed of innocent civilians in West Asia.
The session provided a platform for examining how the same ideology of domination that justified the slaughter of millions of Indigenous people on the American continent continues to underwrite military adventurism, economic warfare, and collective punishment against nations resisting Washington's dictates today.
