I'm against the war, you're against the war, pretty much everyone's
against war in Iraq. Sending e-mails to the United Nations is a start,
but it isn't going to change a lot, because they aren't the ones who want
to drop bombs.

The man who needs to be convinced is George W. Bush, and the only people
he listens to are the heads of big US Corporations. If *they* think war
might be bad for business, they might suddenly get a conscience, and put
pressure on Bush to stop this nonsense. And if George Bush thinks war
might actually harm a few Americans and hurt his re-election chances
instead of just killing thousands of Muslims, he might just listen.

So it's time to send a message that they will hear.

In a world where we are just spectators in "democracy", the only power you
really have is that bestowed upon you as a consumer: the power of choice.
Choose European, Choose Asian - but boycott US products.

Why boycott?

Well one solution is not civil disobedience but commercial disobedience
- quite simply to stop buying products made by large American corporations.
From cars to cola, from sportswear to software, boycotting US products
from large American corporates sends out a loud clear message that we are
have noticed what is going on, and we are not happy with it!

Listed below are some major US corporations and their email addresses.
STOP Buying Their Products. Buy European instead. Create Jobs in Europe!

Send the US companies an email with subject "Boycott USA" saying you'll boycott
US products until the US stops waging war on the world. It might take a lot to
have an affect, but thousands of mails will get them thinking.

Please forward this to everyone you know - and start buying European, and
Boycotting US products!
