NATO & BANKS
HANDS OFF GREECE!
Emergency Protest at the Greek Consulate
Solidarity with Greek workers against EU Banks and & NATO austerity.
SATURDAY, May 19 6:30 to 7:30 pm
650 North St Clair, Chicago
(Corner of Erie St – Take Red Line to Grand)
Today as the NATO military alliance meets in Chicago, Greece faces an unprecedented political, social and economic crisis. The Greek people are refusing the European Union (EU) bankers austerity measures. Events in Greece could have a domino effect throughout Europe.
Greece is the 4th largest importer of arms in the world. This means billions to U.S., French and German military corporations and mass poverty for Greek people. The bankers bail-out loans are structured to continue payments for still more weapons. It is paid with cutbacks, lay offs and austerity measures so extreme that it is literally starving the Greek people.
NATO from its foundation has been an aggressive U.S. dominated military alliance. A U.S./British military intervention against the revolutionary Greek workers created a bloody civil war in 1948 – 49 to force Greece into the western military alliance. In 1967 to 1974 with full NATO support a right-wing Greek general organized a brutal military dictatorship. Today NATO’s agenda is to once again back up the bankers and the rule of the 1%. As thousands of antiwar, anti-imperialist and anti-NATO activists gather in Chicago: Join an emergency action in solidarity with the resistance of the Greek people.
