londontruthaction.org - Taking Action for 9/11 Truth & Peace

<p><span style="color : #ffffff"><span style="font-size : 11px"> <p>Come and participate in civil disobedience outside Downing Street on February 26th, 2011.</p> <p>If you can, make and bring a 9/11 related sign. Unless you are able to be peaceful and have compassion for the police we respectfully request you don't come.&nbsp;</p> <p>This action is dedicated to all the victims of the 9/11 wars.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>THE PLAN:</strong></p> <p>Meet at the Charles I roundabout just below Trafalgar Square at 12pm, discuss what to do, and then head down Whitehall to Downing Street. Here's a <a href="http://maps.google.co... <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>BEING ARRESTED</strong></p> <p>You are likely to be arrested and detained for up to 6 hours so bring a book. Nafeez Ahmed's '<a href="http://www.amazon.com... War On Truth: 9/11, Disinformation And The Anatomy Of Terrorism</a>' is a great one. &nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>WHY:</strong></p> <p>The events of 11th September 2001 act as the foundational myth of the War On Terror. It is being used to justify brutal wars, torture, demonisation of muslim and non-white communities and many more undesirable social, political and cultural injustices.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Here's some recent statements regarding our ongoing military presence in Afghanistan...</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>"It's important to remember why we remain in Afghanistan. It was Afghanistan where Al Qaeda plotted the 9/11 attacks that murdered 3000 innocent people." - U.S. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA at a 16th December 2010 Press Conference <a href="http://www.youtube.co... title="http://www.youtube.co... target="_blank">http://www.youtube.co... <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>"It's worth remembering why we're here, why we're fighting, what this is all about. This is not a war of choice, it's a war of necessity. This is not a war of occupation, it's a war of obligation. On 9/11 when the Twin Towers were blown up, and so many British people died as well as Americans, almost every single person who took part in that attack was trained here in Afghanistan by Al Qaeda. That's why we came here, that's why we cleared away those training camps, and if we left tomorrow those training camps could come back tomorrow. - PM DAVID CAMERON, BBC interview, 11th June 2010. <a href="http://www.youtube.co... title="http://www.youtube.co... target="_blank">http://www.youtube.co... <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>NON-VIOLENCE:</strong></p> <p>Here's some words from a friend about the power of non-violence...</p> <p><em>"If you believe in the innate conscience that is within all humans, that every individual possesses a conscience, then it is possible that every individual is capable of listening to their conscience and acting upon this knowledge. Active non-violence works by stimulating the consciences of those who oppress us. It's aim is to make the oppressor feel a sense of injustice through experiencing or witnessing the suffering of the practitioners of non-violence which when successful will provoke a searching of the conscience which are the first steps to a change in behaviour."</em></p> </span></span></p>
