D'accordo. Facciamo dunque il 20 marzo 100 manifestazioni in 100 città in
solidarietà con gli "altri Usa, di pace". La manifestazione sia solo la punta
visibile dell'iceberg del lavoro quotidiano di ricerca, educazione,
azione.
Ciao!

CONCORDO con te ma, per una
volta almeno, non facciamola a roma!
non sprechiamo energie
inutilmente (i cortei in questo momento non sono dei mezzi
efficaci)
facciamola nel locale così
potremmo dedicare le energie a realizzare vere forme di coinvolgimento e
Mobilit-AzionI possibili
e concretamente incisive da proporre alla gente comune.
credo sia l'unica occasione di
risollevarsi per questo movimento sempre più lento e stanco...
quando nel 2003 uscì la
campagna fuori la guerra dalla spesa la gente la recepiva con molto favore
(ed ancora qualche mese fa tutti prendevano il volantino dal
banchetto)
è stato un errore enorme non
investire energie per sostenere quella campagna che era validissima ed aveva
ottime probalità di "sfondare" di ottenere risultati concreti
adesso io non so se si può
riproporre la stessa aggiornando le ricerche su cui si basava o se
prepararne una simile restringendo l'obiettivo a meno aziende compromesse
con la guerra (magari individuando le imprese italiane che ne traggono
profitto) di sicuro credo che da qui a marzo ci sia il tempo per
prepararla.
scusami se ti rispondo in
privato, ma non riesco ad inviare posta alle liste di
peacelink nonostante mi sia iscritta facendo più tentativi

Bisognerebbe aderire dall'Italia, o fare una manifestazione
parallela.

Emergency Anti War
Conference
Calls for United March on Central Park
to End the Occupation
"Central Park Belongs to the People--March on Central Park on March
20 to End the Occupation!"
This call for a united effort of
antiwar forces came from organizers and activists at the December 4
Emergency Antiwar Conference in New York City. It was greeted with
thunderous applause and a renewed determination to be in the streets to
fight the illegal occupation of Iraq. (see below for the text of
the call)
The conference, called by the International Action
Center, was supported by a wide variety of progressive organizations
including: New York City Labor Against the War, the Haiti Support
Network, the New York Million Worker March Committee, the Korea Truth
Commission, New Jersey Solidarity - Activists for the Liberation of
Palestine, New School Graduate Program in International Affairs Human
Rights Group, International Concerned Family & Friends of Mumia
Abu-Jamal, AMAT - the Association of Mexican American Workers, FIST -
Fight Imperialism - Stand Together, Queers for Peace and Justice,
Democratic Palestine, the No Draft No Way Campaign, PeopleJudgeBush.org,
and more.
Panelists at the conference raised the need to organize
against the draft and military recruiting, to support resistance inside
the military, and to return to the streets in the continued struggle to
stop the occupation. At the conclusion of the conference,
participants broke into planning groups to begin organizing the next
phase of resistance to occupation. Organizing groups
included: Fighting Bush's War Budget, Fighting the Draft and
Military Recruiting, Solidarity with Resistance in the Military, and
Action Plan: Counter-Inaugural and March 20.
OUT
NOW!
MARCH TO CENTRAL PARK ON SUNDAY MARCH 20th,
2005
THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE MARCHING AND
WATCHING
The world-wide antiwar
movement has called for massive demonstrations against the war on the
weekend on March 19-20 -- the second anniversary of the invasion of
Iraq. We have a responsibility to respond with renewed
determination and commitment in the face of the Bush Administration's
launching of a new phase of the war against the Iraqi people.
A
few months ago, Mayor Bloomberg, the NYPD, and Bush told us that we
could not march to and rally in Central Park. We do not accept
this decision and are determined to challenge it in the courts and by
assembling tens of thousands of people to retake Central Park --our
Park. The antiwar movement cannot afford, and must not allow, this
infringement on our rights, especially in a city as important as NYC.
We call on all antiwar and progressive activists,
organizations, and coalitions to work towards building a massive march
on Sunday March 20th to Central Park under the slogan OUT NOW!
We
propose to set up an OUT NOW coalition, open to all individuals and
organizations willing to work together to stop the war. The reason
why we are proposing that we call this movement “OUT NOW!” is because
these two simple words convey the absolute zero tolerance for the
occupation of Iraq that must drive our organizing hence forth. We need
everyone to know that the mass movement is re-opening a full-scale
campaign to stop the war and end the occupation and that the movement
means business.
We encourage you to endorse this call.
The International Action
Center

THE CHALLENGES
FACING THE ANTIWAR MOVEMENT
The following points are not
submitted as the basis for unity that all must agree to before working
together. They are points of discussion that merit movement-wide
attention at this crucial juncture.
* WE need to demand the
Immediate, complete and unconditional withdrawal of all U.S. occupation
troops from Iraq. The occupation’s sole purpose is to control the
natural resources of Iraq and render the Iraqi people and its
institutions subservient to US corporate interest by military force. The
principal function of the occupation is the destruction of all who dare
to resist it, no matter the cost in Iraqi lives, in the destruction of
Iraq’s infrastructure, and the resulting devastation of Iraqi
society.
* The most important thing to know about the January 30
“elections” that are being organized under the US-created Allyawi
regime, is that their purpose is to legitimize the occupation and the
objectives of the occupiers. In the days ahead it will become more
important for us to reject and expose any excuses put forward to justify
the continuation of the colonial occupation of Iraq for even one more
day, or the sending of more troops which is already under way. There is
only one issue and that is ending the criminal occupation -
immediately.
* We must support politically, morally and
organizationally members of the U.S. armed services who are resisting
the war, moreover, we must encourage this resistance.
* We must
organize to fight any attempt by the Bush Administration to re-instate
the draft and prepare to support resistance if conscription
returns.
*It is time for the antiwar movement to acknowledge the
absolute and unconditional right of the Iraqi people to resist the
occupation of their country without passing judgment on their methods of
resistance. Even the founding charter of the United Nations
clearly affirms the right of an occupied people to resist by force of
arms.
* Bush’s doctrine of preemptive war, the occupation of Iraq
and Afghanistan and the growing threats against Iran and North Korea
make it incumbent upon us to reject that notion that smaller countries
must disarm and leave themselves defenseless at the demand of Bush and
the Pentagon. Such demands are not only hypocritical, irrational and
unjust; they amount to little more than a pretext for more invasions and
occupations.
* We must continue to draw the connections between
and build solidarity all of the people in every part of the world that
are resisting the empire - in Korea, the Philippines, Cuba, Venezuela,
Columbia, Puerto Rico, and Haiti, where the people are actively
resisting the “coupnapping” of President Aristide.
* There must
no longer be any hesitation on the part of our movement regarding our
support of the struggle of the Palestinian people to free themselves
from occupation. As a movement we have made a huge step forward in this
regard. There must be no turning back.
* We must work to
facilitate the widest unity between all of the forces that are seriously
organizing against the war and occupation. The world demands no less of
us inside of the US. If there is a will to forge unity, then those with
wide differences in political positions and even a history of poor
working relations will find the basis to unite in the interest of the
struggle to stop the war.
* Now that the election is over, it is
clear more than ever that only a peoples’ mass movement can stop the
war. The antiwar movement should never again sacrifice its
independence and demobilize itself on behalf of a political party that
supports the war. The first and most immediate task of the antiwar
movement is to be back in the streets.
* It is up to us to
revitalize the mass struggle against the war and to insure that it is
serious, uncompromising, unrelenting and supportive of a wide array of
tactics from the mass marches to the militant tactics of the youth, to
the tactics that are most effective for the inclusion of workers, labor
unions and people of color.
* One way of accomplishing greater
fusion between the antiwar movement and the working class and the poor
is through linking of the issues that affect the mass of the people with
the struggle against the war in a much more strategic and substantive
way. For example, very soon the Bush administration will ask congress to
approve between $70 and $120 billion more for the war on top of the more
than $200 billion that has already been allocated for it. Congress will
be voting to fund the war and occupation at the same time that students,
workers, single parents, the unemployed and retirees are being hit with
the most sweeping budget cuts in the government programs that they
depend on since the Reagan years. Our challenge: Can we help galvanize
those who will be outraged by the specter of their money being stolen
from critical needs to pay for more death and destruction into a
struggle against the war budget vote? The time frame for this struggle
will the period between the counter-inauguration protest in DC and
around the country on Jan.20 - through the 2nd anniversary of the start
of the war on the March 19/20 weekend.
* We propose to strategize
and reach out to other forces with the goal of implementing this
perspective. The Million Worker March Movement has issued a call
for all of the various antiwar organizations and workers struggles to
unite on the weekend of March 19-20 and we endorse this call for broad
unity.
