Due to the upcoming NATO Security Conference on february 1/2/3. in Munich we, a few "carnevalists", call for a CARNIVAL AGAINST NATO.

We want to oppose the war lords, the planers of torture, hunger, murder and devastation, who will be meeting in the nobel hotel called "Bayrischer Hof", with our very vivid and pulsating life itself, with our craziest and most creative, danceable resistance!

They want to drown the world in oppression and desaster, they play their games of power, ecomic and militaristic interests on the backs of the poorest (like in Afghanistan), and also on everyone else's back (with their new anti-terrorist, national security laws).
But we cry out to the ministers of war and military strategists, the generals and in-security specialists, the commanders and secret service agents, and who-knows-else is taking part in this meeting of the world's warrior elite, we cry out to them from the depths of our angerfilled lungs: NO!
We won't be playing on their level. Instead, we confront their war and state terrorism with our creativity, our livelyhood, music, dancing and imagination. We will show, how beautifull things could be WITHOUT THEM. And we want as many people as possible to express themselves and their protest most creatively.

It's carnival time in february. Therefore: carnivalists, clowns, pinks-silvers, street-reclaimers, queer folk, hippies and
goafreaks, friends of peace, radical cheerleaders, pupils, students and creatures:

It's your showtime!

All creative action welcome!

Seattle+Notting Hill=Munich!

about this organization ? like the WTO, its extended its power and influence, and is alarmingly creeping ever closer to Russias borders. (it actually touches at kaliningrad; tip- keep a watch on this enclave).
Ill answer my own question; NATO rather contradicts the notion of "Globalization". It is based totally on the military and therefore the state, or a conglomerate thereof, and cuts right across the current left ethos. i imagine that wide ranging concern against NATO will not transpire until the ongoing Russia-western concensus breaks down, and Russia gets the "Kabul" treatment. Afetr all, itll be easy enough to find oppressed minorities and new Stalins there.
