The Conscientious Objectors
Restored
Chapter 12 of YOU, YOU & YOU! The People Out of Step with
World War II (Pluto Press,
1981) at http://petegrafton.wordpress.com.
Includes
material from Joe Jacobs and Philip Sansom.
Extracts:-
“It was three and
a half years of the war before I worked around from wishy-washy, simple
personal opposition to the war to sewing all these things together, in terms of
what I now see as the pointlessness of objecting to war without objecting to
the state which depends upon war.”
“I wrote ‘As a socialist I have pledged myself to oppose
to the utmost of my ability any war started by the capitalist class in the
interest of the capitalist class’.”

Among suggestions put forward as possible subjects for future RaHN meetings we
have : “Conscientious objectors and war resisters, and the role of people drawn
into war in modern times”.}
