LONDON ANTI-WAR
ACTION FORUM

A joint initiative of the Corporate Pirates, Iraq Occupation Focus, Justice Not Vengeance, Peace Not War, Rhythms of Resistance and Voices in the Wilderness UK.


NEXT FORUM:
When: 2-5pm, Saturday 8 April.
Where: London Action Resource Centre, 62 Fieldgate Street, Whitechapel, London E1 1ES (nearest tube Aldgate East). See www.londonarc.org.

Outraged by the ongoing attacks by US-led forces on towns and cities in Iraq? Angry about the forthcoming deployment of thousands more UK troops to Afghanistan? Want to take action?

Maybe you have an idea for a creative protest against the routeing of CIA torture flights through the UK, or would like to meet up with like-minded folk to plan anti-war street theatre to mark the 3rd anniversary of the invasion of Iraq? Or perhaps you know of a corporate war profiteer that needs a spotlight thrown on it, or want to discuss ways of responding to the latest MoD recruitment drive (scheduled to begin in January)?

Then the London Anti-war Action Forum could be the place for you!

THE LONDON ANTI-WAR ACTION FORUM IS:

- a monthly open space for people who want to organise (and take part in) actions related to the so-called "war on terror" (eg. the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan, Guantanamo, Islamophobia etc...)

- a place for *your* ideas and energies

IT ISN'T:

- a place for in-depth discussion of the latest news from Iraq, Guantanamo etc... Information and analysis are crucial to all our work but the Forum's focus will be action.

- an attempt to replicate the important work that's already being done (newsletters, conferences, weekly street stalls etc...) but will instead focus on the stuff that's *not* happening.

- another group. Rather, it's a space where groups and individuals can come together to talk about and plan actions (forming ad hoc coalitions where appropriate). In particular the Forum will have no fixed "membership" or agreed "platform" and no actions will be organised under the name of the "Anti-war Action Forum".
