[van-announce] Call to Action - Oust the Olympics

[Bella]

ATTENTION TO ALL GROUPS AND INDIVIDUALS
AGAINST THE 2010 OLYMPIC BID

FEB 23, BRITTANIA CENTRE CAFETERIA, 1:30-5:00 p.m.
THE GLOVES COME OFF STRATEGY SESSION

Oust the Olympics is an emergency group of organizers who have been trying

to spur a more radical opposition to the games.  We invite all groups and 
individuals to come together after the plebiscite and talk about what 
their 
groups want to do when the IOC Tech Team comes March 2-6th.

The purpose of the assembly is not to debate the morality of different 
tactics, or to talk about actions we would like to see happen.  This 
strategy session is to look concretely at what different groups have 
planned, or are willing to plan.

In the face of cuts that are killing people, we have been consistently 
unable to mount offensives that can strike at the heart of the problem.  
It 
is not too late to pull off mobilizations when the IOC comes.  To do this,

we will need to make use of our time very wisely.  It is our hope that we 
can use this to spur a series of actions when the IOC Tech Team comes.  We

have groups willing to participate, and some actions are already planned.
