THE ANTIWAR CALL
"To all citizens of Europe
Together we can stop this war !
We, the European Social Movements are fighting for social rights and social justice, for democracy and against all forms of oppression.
We stand for a world of diversity, freedom and mutual respect.
We believe this war, whether it has UN banking or not, will be a catastrophe for the people of Iraq ˆalready suffering because of the embargo and Saddam Hussein regime- and for people across Middle East. It should be opposed by everyone who believes in democratic, political solution to international conflicts because it will be a war without resolution with the potential to lead to global disaster.
There is massive opposition to war in every country of Europe, hundreds of thousands have already mobilised for peace.
We call on the movements and citizens of Europe to start coordinated continent wide resistance to war with mass demonstration on .. to demand don‚t attack Iraq."
