December 15, 1930 
Albert Einstein urged militant pacifism 
and the creation of an 
international war resistance fund. 
Einstein stated in New York 
that if two percent 
of those called for military service
were to refuse to fight, 
and were to urge peaceful means 
of settling international conflicts, 
then governments would 
become powerless 
since they could not 
imprison that many people.
He struggled against compulsory military service 
and urged international protection 
of conscientious objectors. 
He concluded that peace, freedom for individuals, 
and security for societies depended 
on disarmament; otherwise, 
"slavery of the individual and the 
annihilation of civilization threaten us."
