The Alliance "aims to provoke thoughtful and penetrating conversation on national security issues including the possibility of conscription, the war against terrorism, our foreign policy, and the real consequences of war".

“I feel a sincere wish indeed to see our government brought back to it’s republican principles, to see that kind of government firmly fixed, to which my whole life has been devoted.
