Yemen’s Conundrum
The dragon’s blood tree (above) is native to the Socotra archipelago, Yemen. Its name comes from the red sap which it produces.
Despite its many historical and natural wonders, Yemen is in grave jeopardy—from war on one hand to the Covid virus on the other. See The Yemeni Conundrum by Mustafa Bahran in our July-September issue.

Denuclearize the Korean Peninsula
J. Enkhsaikhan led the successful plan to make his country, Mongolia, into a Nuclear Weapon Free Zone. Now his organization proposes to do the same for both Koreas and Japan. Wish them luck!
No First Use Becomes Possible Again
Two US senators are proposing a bill that would prohibit their country from initiating the use of nuclear weapons. Metta Spencer admits that this is a far weaker measure than the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, but it’s worth doing anyhow.
Israel Jails Palestinian Children
Israel has jailed a million Palestinians since 1967, including hundreds of thousands of children and minors. Yusur Al-Bahrani and Metta Spencer interviewed a lawyer, Saleh Abu Izzah, who had spent six years of his youth in prison for being a student activist.
PressReader
We are pleased to announce that Peace Magazine can now be read on PressReader, the world’s largest digital magazine provider.
Our 32-page magazine has always been available in two forms: a quarterly print publication, and the text archive on our website, peacemagazine.org. The former costs $20 in Canada, whereas the latter is of course free—though we only put half of each issue online immediately after publication (in a text-only format), making the remaining articles available on the archive only at the end of each year. Foreign subscribers have been few, since it is costly and slow to mail print magazines overseas.
We will keep the print website available as before. But now each entire issue also will be available immediately for subscription worldwide in a digital version that contains everything (including photos, letters, editorials, and color) that appears in the print edition—at the same $20 annual subscription price. The digital version is formatted either for reading on regular computers, tablets, or mobile phones, and instant translation is available into 30 languages.
Unlike the print version of Peace Magazine, to which you will still subscribe directly through us, the digital version will be available in public libraries and by subscription through PressReader. Here is how to subscribe, either for yourself or as gifts for your friends around the world.
On a browser, go to pressreader.com and type Peace into the “search publications” space.
Peace Magazine archives
Every year on New Year’s Day, we mark the occasion by uploading all remaining articles from the issues published during the preceding calendar year. See the archive page here for more than 2700 individual articles from March 1985 to October 2020.
Video series
Peace Magazine’s Project Save the World releases a new one-hour video 5 to 7 times a week. These are broadcast on both Facebook and YouTube. You can watch on our Facebook page, or watch all recent shows right here. (The display’s layout may vary depending on your screen size.
