Call to an International Strike of Pupils and students

Wednesday, the 5th of December

The 11th of september 2001, a handful of people made an incredible violent act, killing thousand of ordinary peoples.

To this vile and inhuman act, reply another vile and inhuman act.

To the religious terrorism, reply the State terrorism.

In order to ease itself's conscience, the american authorities gave to this

war a humanist justification : they tell they want to punish a single terrorist and overthrow the Taliban dictatorship, but it is a whole population tehy are bombing.

In the same time, they send some food, in the case that dead people would be still hungry .

But we have to find the the real reason for this war elsewhere. As in Iraq or in Kosovo, behind the humanitarian pretext are hidding economic motivations. One more time, United States want to extend their financial influence and to control new territories. There is no "clean war".

· We consider that war is not a suitable solution for the terrorism problem ; we refuse the "eye for eye" law

· We refuse to watch passively the massacre of innocent ordinary people. We refused those States, which decide by themselves on the future of the mankind.

· We claim to be antimilitarist.

· We refuse any war, and we consider that nothing can justify this absurdity of war

To watch passively a war, means to accept it. And to accept the war means to contribute to.

ANOTHER WORD IS ESSENTIAL !!!
