Franz
Jägerstätter
- patron saint of refuseniks!
With astonishing
courage Franz taught us how to say ‘No’ to immoral promises and
immoral wars. As citizens, taxpayers, or soldiers, and above all as
Christians, the best honour we can pay him is to learn in our time,
whatever the cost, to say NO to war and to build instead a culture
of peace.”

Support
total objector
Jonas Grote:
the repeated military arrest is clearly used to force him to change
his convictions. This is unconstitutional according to the German
constitution, and a violation of article 18 paragraph 2 of the ICCPR.

Not
in a soldier's name
He
wasn't a pacifist. He'd done his military training. Franz Jägerstätter
was a devout Catholic, a peasant farmer with a wife and children. He
knew the difference between a just and an unjust war. When Hitler
attacked Russia, he said: "This is aggression. I will not
serve."
