LINKS AND CONTACTS
No More Fallujahs has been organised by the Mass Action Group, an ad hoc collection of activists who were involved in organising the 2 April “Naming the Dead” mass act of civil disobedience in Parliament Square (the first mass act of civil disobedience against the occupation of Iraq to take place in the UK since the 2003 invasion - see here).
Over the past 6 years members of the Mass Action Group have also helped to organise the following events: the August 2000 “Die-in for the People of Iraq”; the 21 October 2001 mass sit-down protest in Whitehall against the bombing of Afghanistan; the 2 December 2002 “Warzone Whitehall” die-in; the 19 January 2003 mass blockade of Britain’s military nerve centre at Northwood (where 70 were arrested – the largest such action to take place in England in the run-up to the invasion); the 15 February 2003 mass sit-down in Piccadilly Circus following the big anti-war march; the 5/6 April 2003 “Reclaim the Bases” weekend of direct action at military bases across the UK.
