                                  TOGETHER WITH THE “OTHER” AMERICA, WE SAY
NO TO ALL BUSH'S WARS
  SATURDAY, JUNE9 2007, BUSH WILL BE IN ROME!
  NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION – SPEECHES, SONGS, MUSIC - Piazza del Popolo,
starting from 3pm

  The G8 meeting in Rostock, Germany will have just ended.  Once again, the
powerful will meet in an unrepresentative setting to decide the fate of the
planet, surrounded by protests of people throughout the world who demand
human and civil rights, democracy, global peace and justice.

  During the years of his presidency, Bush and his allies have created
massive disasters for which the entire world is paying a high price. He has
waged war on peace and international law: devising the theory of preventive
and permanent war, occupying the countries of Afghanistan and Iraq, leaving
a trail of death and destruction among civilian populations, instigating
regional crises and applying unjust embargoes.
  No more wars. No more military occupation.

  He has waged war on peaceful cohabitation, declaring himself the head of a
Western-led crusade against the Muslim world, fostering extremism and
placing the world at risk of a clash of civilizations through rearmament,
increased military spending and the militarization of space.  Disarmament
and cultural exchanges are the only exit strategy.

  He has waged war on the Middle East, supporting the unilateral policies of
Israel and expressing contempt for the international laws that condemn the
Wall, the colonies and the 40-year occupation.
  End the occupation, dismantle the wall; full rights and a sovereign State
for Palestinians. Two states for two peoples.

  He has waged war on democracy, limiting – in the name of a greater “war on
terror” – the rights of individuals and groups, legitimizing illegal
detention, kidnapping and the use of torture, and continuing to support the
death penalty.
  No more crimes against humanity.

  He has waged war on justice, imposing on the world neo-liberal economic
policies and increasing the income gap, thereby impoverishing billions of
people in the countries of the north and the south, while enriching the
multinationals and the ruling powers. End disproportionate economic power
and the inequalities of international finance, make even the playing fields
for north and south.

  He has waged war on freedom with his religious fanaticism: attacking the
rights of women, different sexual orientations, scientific research and
history. Freedom of choice in all aspects of life; full civil rights for
all; freedom for research!

  He has waged war on equality, depicting all immigrants as a danger to
society, consolidating the wall of death that separates the U.S. and Mexico,
refusing to sign the UN Convention on Cultural Diversity that protects the
heritage and cultural expressions of the peoples of the world.
  All basic, human rights for everyone.

  He has waged war on the entire world by refusing to sign the Kyoto
protocol, worsening the environmental catastrophe and the rate of climate
change and putting the future of all at risk.
  Protect the only planet we have!

  BUSH, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. THE WORLD HAS HAD IT.

  ITALY, DON'T FOLLOW BUSH!  ITALY AND EUROPE MUST ACT AUTONOMOUSLY AGAINST
THE MISGUIDED RATIONALE OF SUPREMACY AND WAR

  NO TO THE BASE IN VICENZA AT DAL MOLIN, NO TO U.S. BASES, NO TO
MILITARIZATION, NO TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS, NO TO THE F-35 JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER,
NO TO THE MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM.

  WE DEMAND TRUTH AND JUSTICE FOR NICOLA CALIPARI! WE DEMAND FREEDOM FOR
HANEFI! EMERGENCY BACK IN AFGHANISTAN!

  We stand with the U.S. citizens who contest the neo-liberal and neo-con
policies on a daily basis.

  We stand with all those who are working to build another world, to live in
peace.
