[IPSM] Block the Empire: September 12th

[IPSM]

Looking for a rewarding and challenging career, with a broad range of
exciting missions and operations? Come out to Block the Empire's strategic
planning meeting. Block the Empire offers more than an ordinary routine!

Monday, 12 September, 7 to 9pm
DIRA (2035 St. Laurent)

A few *interesting* projects are in the works for Block the empire and we
would love to have your involvement, or at least your input even if you are
not planning to be involved in the coming year. From a new contract to build
US military support helicopters in Mirabel, to ongoing production of SNC
bullets, to the "kill the bastards" rhetoric from our brilliant General
Hillier (about Canadian troops in Afghanistan), to the every day military
recruitment campaigns in Montreal and the ignorance
and complacency which permit the smooth functionning of Montreal's war
machine - the targets are tantalizing, obvious and compelling.

Block the empire is the *only* radical anti-war group in Montreal, the
*only* group targetting the local engines of militarisation, and it is
important that we get broad and active support as we launch a fresh start
under a new name. We see ourselves as complementing the work of solidarity
groups like ISM, Haiti Action Montreal, OCVC, la PASC, CLAC Amerique Latine,
Lebanon Solidarity Project, No one is illegal, IPSM and others by exposing
and disrupting the mobilisation of resources in Montreal for Canadian
imperialism in Palestine, Haiti, Colombia, Iraq, Lebanon, Turtle Island,
Afghanistan and elsewhere.

We're calling this meeting to pull together a new and active crew, as well
as to seek feedback and advice on strategies and resources to build a
sustainable and effective campaign to erode the base of militarisation in
Montreal. And of course to get your help in coming up with a new name!
