COAST TO COAST AND AROUND THE WORLD OCTOBER 7 ACTIONS TO STOP MILITARIZATION OF SPACE STILL GROWING The list of demonstration sites for the "International Day of Protest to Stop the Militarization of Space" is getting larger each day as we move closer to October 7. And there are still more events being organized at this moment! Actions are planned at key U.S. Space Command bases, U.S. spy satellite installations, aerospace industry corporations, federal buildings, U.S. Embassies & Consulates, and in parks and downtown centers around the world. In one city, an all day space video showing will be held on cable TV. When we begin to act together, people from different organizations -- people in different nations, we help create a shift in public thinking and global consciousness. There is much to be done to stop the nuclearization and weaponization of space. We have to keep learning, sharing information, teaching others, protesting and demanding that the global political system keep space for peace. There can be no half measures, no compromises on the issue of moving the arms race into the heavens. We must oppose all research, development, testing, and deployment of space-based weapons. We must support an international ban on weapons in space. The resources of the world cannot be squandered on Star Wars.
