London Hands Off Iraqi Oil Day of Action planning meeting

Wednesday 12th December
7pm
London Action Resource Centre (LARC)
62 Fieldgate Street
Whitechapel E1 1ES (Nearest tubes Whitechapel and Aldgate East)

Calling all...corporate pirates, clowns, and suited and booted satirists...
direct action monekywrenchers, and the stealthy un-wealthy….
anti-privatisation organisers, community-work-place agitators,
corporate muck rakers and peace warriors…we need collective UK-wide
action to expose and resist the corporate take-over of Iraq…...

Saturday 23 February 2008 is the National day of action against the
theft of Iraqi oil and economic occupation. Called by the Hands Off
Iraqi Oil coalition, the day aims to highlight the economic as well as
military occupation of Iraq and show solidarity with Iraqi movements
resisting the rip off of their resources.

London Hands Off Iraqi Oil

London is home to institutions and organisations which are profiting
from war and occupation and which have been complicit in the deaths of
thousands, the displacement of millions and the destruction of lands,
homes and communities. These organisations and their agendas have
largely gone unchallenged. But they should be exposed and opposed; their
roles in the story of the rip of Iraq’s resources told and remembered.

Local anti war and direct action groups around the country have already
committed to taking action at Shell and BP petrol stations on the day.

Yet we in the capital have an even wider scope of targets to choose
from…

This meeting is geared towards identifying these organisations,
discussing their roles, and formulating ideas and tactics for collective
action in the run up to and around February 23rd

The meeting also aims to catalyse a London HOIO network/collective

So come on down to LARC for a session of Maps, Facts, Strategy and
Audacity!...............
