War of the Worlds opens this Saturday and is not at your local cinema.

H.G.Wells was right the Aliens have landed and they are taking over the world. The Aliens in this case being the G8 leaders from the worlds leading neo-liberal nations deciding how they will carve up the world markets between them.

The G8 Summit will resolve nothing. Promises will be made with many, many caveats that will be impossible for the poorer nations to deliver.
The resistance has begun and this resistance will be led by the poor and oppressed themselves, not begging for help, but by taking control over their own destinies and economies as seen in Bolivia recently. The 10,000's of people turning up at this weekend at Edinburgh and Gleneagles are demanding a different world in which people matter and the needs and abuses of modern corporate capitalism must be challenged for the sake of all humanity both poor and rich, both North and South. The message from those who will demonstrate is that a new world is possible in which 30,000 children do not die of starvation every day. Our message is simple - the Aliens will be defeated and humanity will be free.
