Please sign the No Glory
Open Letter. Over 400 people added their names
yesterday, bringing the total number close to 6000 signatures.
This shows the growing concern over attempts to use the World War
One centenary in 2014 to revise history and re-define as "a price
worth paying" the slaughter that killed over 15 million. No doubt
we will also see politicians and generals exploiting next year's
commemoration to justify the wars they are currently waging 100
years after the "war to end all wars" .
