IAWM Bulletin
Agenda
Motions1. The Nordic Battle GroupsThe NORDIC BATTLE GROUP is a European military structure which comprises bodies of troops from the armies of IRELAND, SWEDEN, FINLAND, NORWAY, ESTONIA, LATIVA LITHUANIA. The Irish Anti-War Movement has voiced concern in the past that this battle is the beginning of a military project which will in the future be used to play a role on the world stage to complement the N.A.T.O.’s aggressive militarist policies and strategies. At the same time our involvement in this battle group is a continuation of the governments policy to compromise our neutrality by stealth. This AGM should authorised a formal relationship and indeed close contacts be established with anti war groups in the above mentioned countries to develop close ties so that in the event this battle group goes into action in the future we will be to co-ordinate our response quickly. Proposer: Steve Woods 2. IslamophobiaThis AGM notes with concern the rise, under the guise of the war on ISIS, of islamophobia. While Ireland, unlike Greece , France Germany or Britain, or France, has no fascist or openly racist party, this AGM resolves to continue to take the initiative in organising public meetings and mobilisations against any manifestations of islamophobia as they occur, as it believes that no ground should be ceded, under whatever guise, to racists.
