27th Sept. Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine: End the Occupations!

DrRoundglasses | 16.09.2003 14:32 | Anti-militarism | London

Armed resistance, and peaceful resistance is growing. Iraqi people opposed to the US/UK need our solidarity more than ever. Imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism. We need to defeat the Project for the New American Century.

MANY ACTIVISTS SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN ABOUT IRAQ, and that it is still possible to defeat the Project for the New American Century. Come to the demonstration, to begin a militant campaign against the occupation of Iraq!

Saturday 27th September. Assemble Hyde Park, 12.00 to march to Trafalgar Square.

Called by Stop the War Coalition, CND, Muslim Association of Britain. Supported by Palestine Solidarity Campaign, + major trade unions.

What about The North?

A wall in the north...
A wall in the north...

...and you seem to have forgotten about the British occupation of the north of Ireland, and its continuing (not to say escalating) use of South Armagh as a training ground for its (other) foreign adventures.

For a United Ireland

17.09.2003 15:40

I have always supported the cause of a United Ireland, the protestant state needs to be dismantled just as much as the Jewish state, that is why I am also against the partition of Palestine into 2 states.

However, the callers of the demonstration have not mentioned the issue of the North of Ireland.

I agree with the speaker the brutality of British imperialism on our very own doorstep needs to be exposed, so let me amend that -

Free Palestine! Iraq! Afghanistan! North of Ireland! Kashmir! Checnya! Kurdistan!

Quote: "Armed resistance, and peaceful resistance is growing. Iraqi people opposed to the US/UK need our solidarity more than ever".
The armed resistance is being carried out by Saddam loyalists and Al Qaeda who are terrorising the Iraqi people and attacking coalition forces who are there to rebuild Iraq! What are you suggesting that the coalition forces pull out and leave the Iraqi people to suffer chaos, lawlessness and civil war??? The vast majority of the Iraqi people want the coalition forces to rebuild Iraq not abandon them!

Have you asked them?

Have you actually asked "the vast majority of the Iraqi people" what they want?

I know exactly what the Iraqi people want!

I know exactly what the Iraqi people want. That is the wiping out of all traces of Saddam's regime and the rebuilding of their country. Something that the coalition forces are working hard to do.

Rockwell


How do you know?

How do you know that? Or are you just assuming it to be the case because that's what you (approaching the situation from a rather different cultural perspective to the people of Iraq I suspect) think you'd want if you were in the position you believe them to be in?

Well would you like to live under a regime like Iraq's

Well would you like to live under a regime like Iraq's where they is no free speech at all and where the slightest dissent can mean imprisonment, torture or execution? Where the popualtion were kept starving and in extreme poverty while Saddam spent billions of building palaces for himself? It was 100 per cent right to liberate the people of Iraq from this vile regime!
