Saturday 5 July 2008, is the global day of action against the G8. A few days later, the G8 summit in Japan will start. In the Netherlands, you will also be able to help beat the system on that day, by participating in the collective game 'Enter Fortress Europe'. People abroad can also join in...

A short trailer about the action is published on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7gl3r7lEZk. For more information about the game, see http://www.enterforteuropa.org.

To participate in the game, you should form a team as soon as possible and start training!

So keep the day in question, 5 July, free. The precise location will be published shortly before the 5th. It is a location you can easily reach with public transport. And there will be a luxury touring bus available to take you there from Nijmegen and most probably from Amsterdam. More information on transport will be published on http://www.enterforteuropa.org shortly.

You can reserve a place by mailing info@enterforteuropa.org

You can participate by choosing your own goal and mark it, on or around the 5th of July, with the 'Fuck the G8 Enter Fortress Europe' flag. As goal you should choose an object which, according to your team, is the most representative one for Fortress Europe and so the one which you want to conquer.

You have to take one (more is allowed) picture of your action and upload it to indymedia.nl. On indymedia.nl there will be a special place for the action day. The picture should preferably be posted together with a short explanation of the action. At the prize ceremony of the central collective game the jury of experts (more about them later) will decide which actions, central as well as decentral, will be given the prizes.
