we the people AGAINST WAR & NATO & MSC (= wehrkundetagung)

MSC = wehrkundetagung aka munich "security" conference ....

the title says it all, doesnt it? 😇 ... even much better than the official motto of the conference, "frieden durch dialog" (= peace through dialogue), if you asked me. why? this motto is a sheer charade (farce) as e.g. russia and iran were not invited to join ...

why not a world peace conference? and/or world peace alliance instead?🌈

=> lets save the planet. imho the number #1 issue is PEACE. do you agree? on top, it is obvious, that a world without wars, bombings, fight jets, tanks and the like would help to save our climate too, wouldnt it? 😜

no wars!

approx. 5,000 - 8,000 people at stachus + marienplatz and about 500 - 1,000 at königsplatz (both numbers are my own guess) protest against the so called munich "security" conference (MSC). young, old, groups or single, communists, trade unions, left political parties, .... it was already the 60th convention in munich. in the beginning it was called what it always has been and what it still is = wehrkundetagung. this means military science conference. the list of attendees at this private conference partly financed by our tax money consists of representatives of western block governments, "defence" ministers, military advisers + the military and industrial complex. the programm? next weapon deals, military alliances and wars ... everything just to ensure + to strengthen the power of the collective west ... so sad 😭

if you want to inhale war propaganda, just go to the official MSC 2024 website and mention the typo they've made by copying their 'program' from year to year 👻

... Numerous high-ranking international decision-makers will attend the Munich Security Conference 2023, including heads of state and government, ministers of defense and foreign affairs, as well as leading figures from academia, business and civil society. ...
shame on you, warmongers, shame on you!

this year's themes in the protest movement against MSC (sicherheitskonferenz, SiKo) were especially israels war on gaza, palestine and the proxy war NATO against russia in ukraine ... less prominent were rojava, yemen, freedom of speech and freedom for julian assange, destruction of nature & environment through wars, exuberant military budgets which could be better used to fight poverty & social injustice in our own countries ...

few demanded the u.s. military and their nuclear weapons to leave germany, others demanded germany to leave the north atlantic terror organization aka NATO ... 

there was also a pro-ukraine demo at odeonsplatz with about 100-200 ukrainian natives (long-time residents + new refugees) and supporters, demanding more weapons & money for the ukraine and a stronger alliance against putin. i just took few pictures there, but did not leave our peace march from stachus to marienplatz which symbolically surrounded the noble hotel bayrischer hof, where the MSC takes place ...

as in the last year, there were two different peace movements. the 1st one at stachus and the 2nd at königsplatz. i've marched with the stachus folks this year. as almost always, i also met few old buddies as munich's peace movement is not really big or any significant ...

israel killed tens of thousands nurslings, babies and children in gaza 2023 ... 
... and still continues doing so. shame on them!
NATO + israel = the genocide alliance
solidarity with palestine is not antisemitism
btw, did you know that both, the jews and palestinians are semites?
stachus (karlsplatz, munich)
even if there is a wide road in between,
our demo (seems to be) in front of the palace of justice (justizpalast)😉
still at stachus
the police was really friendly this year, did not provoke the peaceful protesters by stopping the march every few minutes like in the previous years. thus was the athmosphere really relaxed. THANKS. 
the young people groups were both, against war and against capitalism
no to NATO
the peace march through the city will start soon ...
abrüsten = disarmament
what a crazy skies over munich! like the end of times, isnt it?
königsplatz, the 2nd protest movement with a tribune and own peace march route
ceasefire now? so needed in gaza + ukraine + yemen + xxx !
german-russian flag pro peace between our nations ...
wird der bürger (bauer) unbequem, ist er plötzlich rechtsextrem.
(so traurig, so wahr in deutschland)
free julian assange
so creative, so funny against the dirty weapons industry & politics😄
dove of peace
an interesting art project projecting pictures + words (not!) randomly
the official MSC mit noble cars, security protection ... 
why do the need it? because we dont want these warmongers here in munich
peace march
wow! the axis of evil: NATO + patriarchy + capital(ism)👹
there is a lot of truth in these 3 ladies' message, isnt it?
paramedics + police accompanied our demo
we ran past a pro-ukraine demo at odeonsplatz 
yes, i liked the young peoples slogans and their attitude ... 
they don't want to fight and die for elite's power games
stopp the war on gaza
the final rally at marienplatz. there is the town hall with ukrainian and israel flags, we the people stand with palestinian and russian flags agains war. shame on you, corrupt authorities & governments! you do not represent us! shame on you!
the long list of names with palestinian victims killed by israel's military in gaza 2023-2024
time to buy some food ...
see you next year and every year as long as the warmogers conference breaks apart 😃👺👼

last year's event here.

more pictures (soon) here.

ps: i was asked, why there is 'no word about russia'. well, imho russia's attack on ukraine (in order to help the russian minority in the eastern ukraine) would correspond to an attack by arabic nations on israel in order to help their ethnic brothers + brothers in the faith in gaza, wouldnt it?
