Turn On A Light, Sunday, March 9, 2003
You are FOR PEACE!!
This war is also a war of images : remember that, to << prove >> the existence of chemical weapons in Iraq, Colin Powell did not hesitate to brandish a phial full of mineral water in front of the world's televisions !!! LET US CREATE AN IMAGE THAT WILL SHAME BUSH AND HIS OILMEN AND STOP THEM IN THEIR TRACKS !!! AN IMAGE WITHOUT ANY SPECIAL EFFECTS, AN INDISPUTABLE IMAGE THAT WILL BE THE REFLEXION OF OUR CONVICTIONS ! ON SUNDAY 9 MARCH, BETWEEN 8:00 PM AND MIDNIGHT YOUR LOCAL TIME, TURN ON A LIGHT ? AS BRIGHT AS POSSIBLE ? A CANDLE, A LANTERN, A LAMP OR A PROJECTOR ? OUTSIDE YOUR WINDOW, ON YOUR BALCONY, IN YOUR COURTYARD OR IN YOUR GARDEN ! This image will be visible from far up in the sky, it will be photographed and filmed by satellites and planes alike, and will be reproduced by the medias. It will go down in history as a definitive testimony of our hope for a future that is common to all men and women. EVERY HOUR, EVERY MINUTE, EVERY SECOND COUNTS to stop the mighty forces that have been mustered for the attack.
FORWARD THIS MAIL, not only to ten or twenty of your friends, BUT TO FIFTY OF THEM, HAVE IT TRANSLATED, SEND IT TO DISTANT LANDS, SEND IT TO THE MEDIAS EVERYWHERE !!!
THANKS TO THE WEB, THE IMAGE OF A BRIGHTLY LIT PLANET CAN BE FORWARDED AND SPREAD LIKE A STREAK OF LIGHT.
Do not dispair ! Should the war begin before that date, turn a light on all the same that Sunday night, more brightly than ever, as this light will bear forever testimony that the war was planned against the will of the people, including, first and foremost, the American people whose opinion cannot be expressed clearly because of the authorities' stranglehold on televisions. NEITHER BUSH NOR SADDAM ! THE U.N. DO HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY, MEANS OF PRESSURE OTHER THAN WAR DO EXIST AND DIPLOMACY CAN BRING RESULTS. TURN ON A LIGHT ON SUNDAY 9 MARCH !
