RoR anti-nato nucleo - 02.10.2010 19:32
In November 2010, close to the 9th anniversary of the disastrous invasion of Afghanistan, NATO will hold a summit in Lisboa, Portugal, to agree on a New Strategic Concept which will formulate NATO's warmongering policies for the next 10 years! Come to Lisbon between 12 to 21 november to join and set up your own decentralised actions to spread general awareness about NATO's devastating role in the world and to disrupt the summit in Lisbon!
International and local groups are preparing a convergence centre and sleeping accomodation with basic facilities in lisboa (drink water, toilets, vegetarian kitchen and preferably electricity and bathing facilities). Contact us for more info:  antinatoportugal@gmail.com

The absence of openness and transparency in the new NATO strategy document is a big threat for all of us not in power. We need to open our own and others people's eyes on NATO's past and future actions and the content of this document as it will include the continuation of the war in Afghanistan, interventions against other countries, expansion into the East and the North, and the continuing implementation of nuclear weapons. The use and modernization of nuclear weapons will continue to be a central part of the new strategy.
We will protest against these war-mongering policies and call for the abolition of NATO. We will demand a ceasefire in Afghanistan and the urgent withdrawal of all foreign military forces from that beleaguered nation. The NATO phase of the Afghan War has been predictably deadly and counterproductive since the beginning. Instead of the promised peace and security, Afghans are suffering an ever-growing civilian death toll. We know Afghanistan is just a test field for the new NATO guidelines, the so called New Strategic Concept, which includes the possibility of invading any country in the world that does not comply to western political standards as well as the possibility of using the military to stop social unrest anywhere in the world (namely, within the NATO countries). This is a real threat to freedom loving people all over the world and a big step forward in what we might call the militarization of society.
What's more:
*NATO is holding “exercises” on strategical spots as the Yellow Sea between Korea and China, and lately also in Romania. This last “exercise” would not have come to anybody's ears, if it wouldn't have been for the death of 5 Israeli servicemen,
*EU-Europe will become a partner and second leg of NATO. This is a clear upgrading of the militaristic policies of the EU stipulated in the Lisbon Treaty,
*NATO consolidates it's global missile shield which in its final stage will cover all of Europe (or at least the entire continent west of Russia and Belarus)
Come to Lisboa between 12 and 21 of november to support and realize a multitude of actions to demand a ceasefire in Afghanistan, the dropping of the New Strategic Concept and an effective end to NATO! With actions like vigil/banner drops, conferences, demonstrations and civil disobedience, we can disrupt their meeting, show our dissagreement and raise general awareness about NATO's warmongering vision for the future.
