In These Times | Union Yes, War No The AFL-CIO charts a new course for labor by opposing an attack on Iraq
The late February statement did not oppose a multilateral war against Iraq under all circumstances, nor did it reject unilateral military action "in defense of our national security." But it represents a break in a long tradition of American unions backing the president on foreign military policy. And it marks a further step toward a more internationalist perspective by a labor movement that historically has been quite nationalist.
