World Declaration against war


1) DECLARATION OF WORLD AGAINST WAR CONFERENCE
Agreed unanimously by 1200 delegates from 26 countries attending
the World Against War Conference on Saturday 1 December 2007.

This conference of delegates from peace, anti-war, anti-imperialist and liberation
movements across the world declares its opposition to the "endless war"
prosecuted by the US government against states, peoples and movements in
all parts of our planet.

We oppose the interference of the US and its allies in sovereign states,
and assert the right of all peoples to self-determination. We support all people
fighting for peace and against imperialism.

In particular, we demand:

* An immediate end to the illegal military occupation of Iraq, which has caused
hundreds of thousands of deaths and displaced millions of people, a withdrawal
of all foreign troops and the full transfer of sovereignty to the Iraqi people and
their representatives.

* A halt to all preparations for an attack against Iran, and a commitment to
solve any issues through exclusively diplomatic means.

* A withdrawal of foreign troops from Afghanistan, allowing the Afghan people
to determine their own future.

* Justice for the Palestinian people, and an end to Israeli aggression throughout
the Middle East.

* An end to plans for US missile defence, and that all states actively pursue
nuclear deterrence.

We affirm the solidarity of all those fighting for peace, social justice and self-determination
worldwide, and commit ourselves to strengthening our unity and developing new forms of co-operation.

We therefore designate the anniversary of the invasion of Iraq as a worldwide day of
action in support of the demands NO ATTACK on IRAN and TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ/
and AFGHANISTAN and call on all national anti-war movements to hold mass protests
and demonstrations on that day.
