Because every individual has the right to be autonomous and able to offer to the society without being a subordinate to power and to the “duty” to serve the country…
Because the military service – either conscript or reservist – is not “sacred”, as the army by nature is turning against human life and as a mechanism “trains” the servant to be completely subordinated without any objections at any authoritarian institution.
Because the conscientious objection is not a liberal individual right, but a libertarian act of civil disobedience and anti-militarist action.
We express our full solidarity to the imprisoned conscientious objector Murat Kanatli and we escalate our action towards a demilitarised Nicosia and a demilitarised Cyprus.
Nobody should be a soldier, never and nowhere, We are not surrendering our lives to the bosses!
