Cyberaction avant le 29 mai pour interdire les bombes à grappes (Cluster Bombs)

À l’heure actuelle, en Irelande, 109 pays négocient un traité pour bannir les bombes à grappes (à fragmentation/Cluster Bombs) !

Les vendeurs d’armes, et certains pays puissants*, tentent de rendre le traité juridiquement faible et d’y introduire des délais.

URGENT: le texte final sera décidé dans les prochaines 72 heures.

DONC voici une cyberaction immédiate du réseau international AVAAZ à faire avant la soirée du 29 mai. Il s’agit d’un SIMPLE formulaire qui envoit un message aux gouvernements impliqués: il suffit d’inscrire votre nom, pays et code postal. Soyons plus bruyants que les vendeurs d’armes !

Cluster Bombs: an immediate cyberaction before May 29

Final negotiations are underway right now in Dublin, Ireland on a treaty to ban cluster bombs. 109 countries are in the final stages of negotiation on a cluster bomb ban. Arms manufacturers are pushing governments to riddle the treaty with loopholes and delays—and the final text will be decided in the next 72 hours (as of this Tuesday May 27, 2008).

Cluster munitions don’t just kill during war. They scatter small, shiny, unexploded “bomblets” on the ground that hold their deadly charge for years. When children pick them up, they are often maimed or killed. Most governments agree that these weapons should be outlawed, but back-room pressure is rising to undercut a strong ban.

Our information is that the delegations obstructing a strong treaty in the last few days include: the UK, France, Germany, South Africa, the Netherlands, Finland, Denmark, Japan, Sweden and Switzerland, so messages to these leaders will be particularly valuable.

If enough of us act before the treaty is signed on Friday, we can drown out the weapons merchants and convince our governments to ban cluster bombs once and for all. Click below to send a message, and then forward this email to friends and family:
