![]() One can not protest US foreign policies while drinking a can of Coca Cola or smoking a cigarette of Marlboro, two important sponsors of Bush re-election. |
With the military attack and invasion of Iraq in March 2003 the US acted once again as a "Rogue State" and violated the UN Charter.
Today more than ever, US government policy is increasingly marked by arrogance and self-interest, and US multinationals seem to have a major impact on the policy of the US administration.
For this reason we are calling for an open ended boycott campaign.
As opposition to the Nazi regime would have boycotted German companies supporting the fascist regime of Hitler, today we need to boycott US multinational as an effective tool to oppose US foreign policies which are the most dangerous threat to international security and peace today.
The economic boycott is an effective non-violent tool with which concerned citizens around the world can vote with their wallets against the aggressive policies of Washington and use their consumers power to built another world in purchasing local, fair-trade and organic products as an alternative for the US corporate products.
By boycotting US multinationals who are large donors to the Republican Party, we want to put pressure on the US government to join the international community, complying with the rules of the United Nations and international law, the same way Mahatma Ghandi drove out the British empire out of India, or the international opinion put an end to the apartheid regime in South-Africa.
And as most US embassies became military fortresses US multinationals became today for boycotters worldwide the most natural US embassies.
The unilateral policies of the US must stop now and all US troops must leave Iraq immediately.
As consumers we do not want our money to be used to fuel wars, environmental destruction and human-rights violations.
