Iraq one year after: let's demonstrate
The unjust, illegal, aggressive and imperialist war on Iraq brought hundreds of thousands of people out to participate in the huge unprecedented demonstrations in more than 100 countries. In these, the widespread opposition of the peoples to imperialism and war was expressed in a multitude of ways, as was the need to thwart the decisions of the United States and its allies, and especially the threats of fresh attacks being made on the world's peoples. This war, covered by the "war against terrorism", clearly show the real intention of imperialism to expand markets, win more profits, dominate the natural resources as oil, control the most important geo-strategic areas and eliminate any focus of resistance of the peoples. We demand the immediate end of occupation of Iraq and the withdrawal of all foreign military forces from the country. We denounce the external interference in Iraq and the attempts to divide its territory. We believe that the Iraqi people have full rights to fight against the foreign occupation. And we support and respect the right of the Iraqi people to decide their own future and destiny as an independent and sovereign country. To increase the struggle against the imperialist war and occupation of Iraq, for peace, freedom and social progress we broadly call upon the mass organisations of working people and farmers, youth and women, peace and solidarity and all the peace lovers to rally, protest and demonstrate on March 20, 2004 (one year after the invasion of Iraq), in every country and region of the world, in front of US and England embassies and military bases as well as in other places you find appropriate to express our view and demands. We believe that the peoples of the world constitute the only superpower! -Asian & African Peoples Solidarity Organization (AAPSO) - International Association of Democratic Lawyers (IADL) - Organization of Solidarity of the Peoples of Africa, Asia and Latin America (OSPAAAL) -Women International Democratic Federation (WIDF) -World Federation of Democratic Youth (WFDY) - World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU) -World Peace Council (WPC)
