Call To Protest US and NZ war crimes!
Protest US and NZ war crimes! Protest Hillary Clinton, US war monger
When: Thursday 4 November
4:30
Where: Parliament Grounds
Bring: banners,
placards, friends, comrades, etc
"When US Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton signs the 'Wellington
Declaration'
on Thursday at Parliament, she will be greeted with
an
anti-war picket just outside. We will not stand idly
by as the one of the
people responsible for the hundreds
of thousands murders, tortures,
kidnappings, rapes, and
forced displacements in Iraq and Afghanistan sips
wine
inside the beehive" said Peace Action Wellington member
Valerie Morse
"The New Zealand government has been right
alongside the Americans in the
global killing escapade
that they call the 'war on terrorism' for nine
years now.
Why is New Zealand fighting and killing for America? Simply
put,
money and power: the government wants a free-trade
deal with the US to
appease NZ capitalists, and wants
closer military relations with the US to
ensure global
Western domination.
"This is a war OF terrorism being
waged by bullies and thugs in Washington
and Wellington
in order to secure the resources of the Middle East
and
ensure Western supremacy. Bush's war is now Obama and
Clinton's war, but
it is the same old US foreign policy
of imperial war and occupation."
"Peace Action Wellington
demands an immediate end to ALL New Zealand
involvement
in the phony 'war on terrorism': no more SAS, no
more
frigates, no more thinly veiled occupations
disguised as ‘reconstruction,’
no more spybases. We
demand peace with justice and self-determination
for
Afghanistan, Iraq and all of the people of the
world."
