A-Infos (en) France, FA: FOR PEACE, AGAINST ALL WARS! ABOLITION OF BORDERS! (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Motion adopted at the 83rd Congress of the Anarchist Federation, held in 
Chirols on June 7, 8, and 9, 2025. ---- Nearly 60 conflicts in the 
world. On every continent, particularly in Africa, Asia, and the Middle 
East. In the age of spectacle, the media focus on certain hotbeds of 
war, Ukraine and Gaza, subject as they are to geopolitical issues. They 
forget many others, such as Sudan, Yemen, the Democratic Republic of 
Congo, the Sahel, Chad, and Myanmar, as well as the wars waged by drug 
traffickers and paramilitary gangs in Colombia and Mexico, or the war 
against women in Afghanistan and Iran.

Since February 2022 and the start of the war in Ukraine, retired 
generals have been populating the studios of news channels owned by 
far-right billionaires and arms dealers. They assure obedient 
journalists that war is upon us and that the time for carefree living is 
over. Flies have smelled the carrion; it's finally time to lead the 
populace to sacrifice, while extracting the few banknotes lying at the 
bottom of their pockets to raise the billions needed for major rearmament.

Wherever it is located, the army's function is social control, working 
hand in hand with the police and the prison system. Whether it's a 
domestic or foreign war, "peacekeeping" or "humanitarian" war, it's 
always about contributing to the development of capitalism. In times of 
"peace," every uprising, every political or social demonstration, every 
criticism of the state and its sovereign powers is subject to 
increasingly repressive laws in the name of urgency and exception. In 
times of war, it is the civilian population that suffers the most: 
drones, bombings, anti-personnel mines, torture, rape as a weapon of 
war, sexual slavery, forced displacement, etc.

Everything contributes to terrorizing populations into submission and 
training them, often using religion and always patriarchy, in the 
service of capitalism and the powerful.

Everything contributes to indoctrinating populations through deceptive 
media campaigns to ensure their passivity, particularly targeting young 
people by militarizing education (UNS Project).

The military-industrial complex ensures the militarization of all of 
society, in terms of economic, nuclear, and military power, imposing 
poverty, hunger, environmental destruction, perpetuating colonialism and 
slavery, erecting apartheid through militarized zones and border walls, 
and reinforcing violence, particularly against women.

The pacifist and anti-militarist emergency also aims for the dismantling 
of all multinational military infrastructures and nuclear arsenals 
worldwide, for international demilitarization and disarmament. It also 
calls for movements of deserters, refuseniks*, workers, farmers, 
feminists, anti-patriarchal, anti-racist activists, and more.

For over forty years, the brainwashing instituted, particularly in 
France, from the Hernu-Savary Protocol in 1982 to the current UN system, 
has spread militarist ideology among young people. The pacifist and 
anti-militarist emergency requires peace education that is non-sexist, 
non-racist, and anti-capitalist.

Let's sow peace and social justice! Let's build anarchy!

*People who refuse to participate in compulsory activities, such as 
military service.
