On the 11th of June Bush will be in Rome once again, to discuss with Berlusconi Government for more Italian involvement in USA war strategies.
Bush wants to take advantage of a whole italian Parliament pro-USA, in order to increase our commitment in War:
– more fighting troops in Afghanistan;
– offensive rules, for our contingent in Lebanon, against Lebanese opposition ;
– troops in the Balkans in defense of Kossovo secession;
– green light to the extension of the military base dal Molin in Vicenza;
– expansion of the others USA bases;
– Italian participation in Missile Defense Shield, after the first installation in some eastern country;
– full military collaboration between Italian and USA companies;
– italian support to war preparation against Iran ;
– improvement of complicity between Italy and Israel.
With their growing military aggressiveness, due to the widening of its sphere of influence on world market - now falling- United States are now facing their own recession saddling the economical, social and military price to their allies.
With this worrying war agenda Bush will find the full collaboration of Berlusconi Government which, between war fanfares and racism , will try to intensify Italian role in war.
Starting from D’ Alema and from last Prodi Goverment we were , in fact, the fourth colonial and imperialist power for our military presence abroad.
We have to overturn this agenda with a mobilization against war and , as we did in the past,we will make no allowances for any goverment or political organization being accomplice in global war
The “Patto Permanente Contro La Guerra” calls for mobilization all those who wants another possible world in which peace is the Polar Star of foreign and economic policy and security is indissoluble from solidarity ,cooperation and social justice.
We don’t want our country continuing to be accomplice of war escalation, we don’t want to receive the one who embodied, during these years, global war, torture and cessation of human rights all over the world.
On June the 11th we will be in the streets in Rome, against Bush visit.
We want:
– The immediate withdrawal of Italian troops from Afghanistan, Lebanon, Balkans;
– the repeal of the decision of building a new military base in Vicenza;
– the dismantling of the USA/NATO bases on our territory and their convertion for civil use;
– the repeal of the Italian support to USA Defense Missile Shield, and to the building of F35;
– the repeal of the military cooperation agreement between Italy and Israel;
– the cut in military spending in favor of social spending.
