As the mercenary industry gathers in Washington, DC for their Annual Summit, Africa Action and partner organizations will gather outside the offices of their trade association--the International Peace Operations Association (IPOA)--in Farragut Square Park to voice our objections to mercenaries profiting off of wars and... the suffering of the people in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the African continent.
U.S. Corporations are making billions off of conflict in Iraq, Afghanistan, and throughout Africa. On October 27, activists and supporters of human rights, peace and justice, sustainable development, and true human security will be speaking out about abuses by private military contractors in these regions, poets and musicians will help us make some noise, and we will shine the spotlight on the mercenaries' meeting in DC during a critical time for the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and the escalation of U.S. military involvement in Somalia, the Democratic republic of Congo, Nigeria, and other Africa nations.
Come out in support of peace and justice and against war profiteering!
To find out more about what you can do to oppose the escalation of Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and RESIST AFRICOM and the expanded use of U.S. Mercenaries:
