SUMMARY:UKRAINE WAR:  Negotiate\, Don’t Escalate and Risk WWIII
DESCRIPTION:Retired Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatowski of the Eisenhower Media Network will discuss the critical stage that the Ukraine War has reached\, and the urgent need to end it with painful but realistic concessions now before Ukraine loses far more soldiers and territory in the near future\, and before possible US/NATO escalation to help Ukraine avoid total defeat leads to the precipice of nuclear war with Russia. \nLt. Col. Karen U. Kwiatkowski is a retired U.S. Air Force officer whose assignments included duties as a Pentagon desk officer and various roles for the National Security Agency. After retiring\, she became a noted critic of the U.S. involvement in Iraq. Kwiatkowski is known for her insider essays denouncing a corrupting political influence on military intelligence\, especially leading up to the 2003 Iraq War. In 2012\, she challenged incumbent Bob Goodlatt in the Republican primary for Virginia’s 6th district in the U.S. House of Representatives. \nWhile in the Air Force\, she wrote the books Africa: African Crisis Response Initiative: Past Present and Future (2000) and Expeditionary Air Operations in Africa: Challenges and Solutions (2001). She contributed to Ron Paul: A Life of Ideas (2008) and Why Liberty: Personal Journeys Toward Peace and Freedom (2010). She has been featured in several documentaries\, including Why We Fight (2005). She has written for LewRockwell.com since 2003 and her work has appeared in Salon and The American Conservative. She has an MA in Government from Harvard\, an MS in Science Management from the University of Alaska\, and a PhD in World Politics from The Catholic University of America; her thesis was titled Angola\, A Case Study of the Implementation of the Reagan Doctrine. She is a founding member of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity. \nRegister to attend:
