Hi everybody... Just wanted to add a comment to the war between the websites.... The way you two guys humiliate yourselves is painfull for all of us especially EASA.. I would like to remember you all that there are a bunch of people working on the easa003-project. As I see it the easa003.dk site should be the official website it is the one that represents easa to the most new students around Europe for the time being. I went through the danish site to this forum which a lot of architecture students might do in the next 4-6 month. I find it rather unpleasant to enter a discussionforum for easa, that puts antiwar material on the frontpage. So please Jelk and Marko, sober up your websites, or we can democratically choose not to use either of them. I suggest that you both put down the official website war, and we can democratically take up the issue at the next NC-meeting. Until then please respect that you are representing an organisation and thereby me. I don't want new students unfamiliar with the easa-organisation, to see this website as one of their first impressions. This is a forum, we cannot avoid the real war as a topic, but do it in a respectfull manner.

One love Mikkel

It's about two weeks day the coalition forces are going to take Baghdad... The iraqi people don't like Saddam, this is fact... but is fact that iraqi people don't want to be "free" by angloamerican forces... they must solve this problem alone... Another fact... Saddam is Saddam becaurs ten years ago the same US give him power for war against IRAN...

the war is illegal and immoral

the un have not sanctioned this war, therefore it is illegal and bush and Blair should be liable for war crimes

this war is creating a humanitarian disaster; millions of innocent civilians are expected to die from it

bofore the war started the biggest organised protest in world history happened, up to 20,million people protested against it. in britain the majority of people opposed it, yet blair went against democracy and took britain into a war the people were against

sadam is a bad man, him and his regime are killing iraqis. yes we all know this, bush is using this as an excuse to attack so that US and co can control the oil, Iraq has second biggest oil reserves after Saudi Arabia

the CIA and Iraq’s neighbouring countries to do feel sadam is a threat = bush’s first lie

there are plenty other terrible regimes, you don’t see bush attacking them; Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Tibet.

the worst terror state is Palestine, the Israelis are carrying out near genocide there. the UN have tried to go in and stop this slaughter, 2000+ Palestinians killed in 3 years. but every time US uses its veto, i think they have done this @ 50 times over the years, when France uses their veto to prevent an unwanted war they are branded wrongdoers

the media in US still calls this war "the war on terror", again CIA claim there is no link between al-queida and sadams regime. the media is so one sided that the unfortunate people of the US are ill informed and will probably suffer more attacks similar to 9.11 due to this illegal war

US has attacked 21 countries since ww2, all occasions it said it would improve life there, untrue. it leaves things worse for the people and exploits the country to satisfy its own imperialist, economic, selfish, unsustainable needs. it promised great things when attacking Afghanistan, all it did was build a massive pipeline for oil and guard it with its troops, Afghanistan is a humanitarian mess at present. about 10 % of the promised aid got there, money now spent on "war on terror"

if and when sadam is defeated war will continue, it is very good for US economy, Syria look like the next target, then Iran, then possibly Russia and china, this could indeed lead to WW3.

meanwhile US and G8 nations unhealthy economic, political systems maintain an unbalanced world with 7,000,000 people dying every year and massive environmental problems growing; this is the real war

more and more people are becoming informed about what is really going on in this world. as architects i would hope you firstly do care for what is going on, secondly inform yourself of what is going on and lastly DO something about it, inform more people and try to promote a just, peaceful and sustainable world

thanks for your time

above is the reason to be political, your home, planet earth, it is being destroyed. oppose this. live life and love it

peace

it's not as much as in other cities, but we were there! and we will be there!!!

whats about the rest of europe?

20,000,000 worldwide protest together

largest co-ordinated protests in human history

network-based movements that are revolutionising civil society

Last Saturday between twelve and twenty million people around the world took to the streets to protest the rush to war with Iraq. While the millions marching in major cities received most media attention, there were also protests in thousands of smaller cities, towns and villages world-wide. Letterkenny saw 15 marching, 600 demonstrated on the Shetland Islands and even McMurdo Station in Antarctica saw 50 people voicing their opposition to war. While the numbers of people involved in the global demonstrations will never be fully known, what is clear is that these were the largest co-ordinated protests in human history.

The vast, coordinated protests that occurred worldwide last Saturday were just the latest manifestation of the power of the loose, non-hierarchial, evolutionary movements that have been enabled by the development of the Internet. And this fundamental social change is just beginning.
