We are sure you and your supporters / members will be interested in

many people as you can.
Henry Kissinger feels unsafe to visit countries such as France and Belgium,
there being legal problems should he dare to do so. We think this should be
the case in the UK.
For more information on the protest and plenty of background to the crimes
of Henry Kissinger check the website at www.resist.org.uk
In the build up to the protest, globalise Resistance is holding a
TRIAL OF HENRY KISSINGER:
