"We feminists are against war, in any territory, for any reason or excuse."
- The Armiarma Feminist Group and the antimilitarists have reminded women that they are fighting both against the war and against all the machinery that supports it. In order to refuse war and the military industry, this afternoon Tuesday has called for a rally in Bilbao.
On 24 May, International Women’s Day for Peace and Disarmament, Armiarma reaffirmed its “commitment not to protect any war and to fight to eliminate all its causes”, the commitment to “build a society that does not die war and does not oppress peace”.
“She is murdered and raped by war. War destroys houses, breaks communities and forces people to uproot. The war destroys the territory and the peoples who live there. War is a scenario in which Machian violence is maximized, it is the expression and perpetuation of the patriarchy,” the anti-militarist group stressed.
They recall that there are dozens of armed conflicts in the world (Ukraine, Yemen, Somalia, Afghanistan, Lake Chad region, Sudan, Sahel, Ethiopia, Central African Republic, Mali, Mozambique, Iraq, Syria, Myanmar, Cameroon…) and that women face and negotiate peace in the context of war: Women of Black, Feminists in Russia and elsewhere, antinuclear pacifists of the 1980s, groups of Manos crossing Bat Shalom and the Cyprus Line in Palestine, Argentinean mothers of the Plaza de Mayo and Amama argentinas working in the National Coordinator of Viudes of Guatemala or the Peace Committee of Pacific Africa of Women
War begins in our lands
Armiarma has stressed that this war begins in the arms industries of our territories and in public investment for military spending, he has called a rally this afternoon on Tuesday at 19:30 in the Plaza del Arriaga in Bilbao. “It’s time to get rid of weapons and the military industry and put life at the centre of politics and the system.”
