Join the M27 Coalition and activists around the country on Monday, April 7 by taking direct action against the war and those who profit it from it!
A mass civil disobedience is planned at the offices of The Carlyle Group, 58th and Fifth Ave, during morning rush hour (exact time to be decided). Carlyle stands to profit mightily from both the war on Iraq and the post-war " reconstruction".
Who is The Carlyle Group? It is an investment firm managing some $14 billion in assets, including stakes in a number of defense- related companies. Former Defense Secretary (and deputy CIA Director) Frank Carlucci, former Secretary of State James Baker and, former President George Bush are all top level "cheiftans" in this company (and until recently the family of Osama bin Laden also had a stake in this company). Among their holdings is United Defense Industries, a maker of armed vehicles and weapons, which filed in October to raise up to $300 million in an initial public offering of its shares. They are a major defense contractor and are a private firm, with ties to former heads of State and to the current White House: i.e. George Bush Sr. stands to profit fromt he wars his son is waging. This is why they are being targeted."
Affinity actions will also be taking place at other targets around the city, and there will be legal protest options available, both at the site and at other locations.
Join us for a planning meeting on Wednesday, April 2 (6-8:30pm, at Gay Community Center, 207 W. 13th St., just west of 7th Ave.), and a pre-action meeting on Sunday, April 6 at 6pm, Washington Square Methodist Church at 135 W. 4th St.
SPREAD THE WORD FAR AND WIDE! ACT NOW TO STOP THE WAR PROFITEERS!"
