11TH SEPTEMBER 2007

ONE DAY – MANY ACTIONS

Blockade? Party? Destroy? March? Smash? Infiltrate? Invade? Picket?
Harass? Clown? Dance? Light candles? Fight? Lock on? Vigil? Disrupt?

YOU DECIDE!

From 11-14 September, DSEi (Defence Systems Equipment International), the
world’s largest arms fair, returns to East London’s ExCeL Centre.

Despite massive local opposition, and a huge bill to the taxpayer, arms
dealers will once again be free to deal in death and destruction.

AGAINST THE WAR – AGAINST THE ARMS TRADE

“Stop the War” (whichever war) is useless sloganeering unless it is
accompanied by a commitment to stopping the global arms trade. No wars
will never stop whilst weapon sales are a booming capitalist business worth
in the region of $40 billion a year.

In 2005, DSEi hosted 1,100 companies, 70 official military delegation and
20,000 visitors from across the globe. Many of the countries invited were
at war, some with each other. Many were dictatorships with appalling
human rights records. Many had huge national debts with populations in
severe states of poverty and starvation.

There are no borders, no limitations and certainly no morals when it comes
to arms trading. Whilst countries such as the US and UK pretend to
restrict the sale of arms, there are enough loopholes to enable dealers to
trade whatever they like, to whoever they like.

WE MUST NOT LET THEM MEET WITHOUT DISRUPTION AND OPPOSITION.
JOIN US AND TAKE ACTION. SAY NO TO WAR. SAY NO TO THE ARMS TRADE
