Disarm DSEi! Civil disobedience against the trade in death

Uncle B | 18.08.2001 15:08

Actions - Tuesday 11 September 2001: Using diverse forms of civil disobedience, the FIESTA FOR LIFE AGAINST DEATH - a fusion of celebration and action - will make an audacious intervention against the DSEi exhibition. The WOMBLES will make a direct contribution to this bloc using our weapons - our bodies - to confront the commodity that enforces all others.

11-14 September, London: DSEi is the Defence Systems & Equipment international arms fair, being held at the Excel Centre in Docklands. Its the biggest exhibition for the trade in death in Europe. Arms and equipment - from bullets to battleships - will be showcased to visitors.

The trade in the commodity of arms and "defence" equipment underpins the corporations ravaging our planet and the governments that can only use violence to support their global economic order.

September 11 2001: Diarm DSEi! For Life Agaiinst Death!

Actions to close the DSEi arms fair: organise with friends, network with local groups, get an affinity group together. Discussion, banner-making, padding preparation and much more will be taking place soon.

Whether you wear a white overall or not, if you are interested in coming together for a practical padded bloc against the DSEi Arms fair, come along to the WOMBLES Public Meetings or email  wombles@hushmail.com.
