Wage Peace-Disrupt War joins global #A15action across the Great South Land
When we started WagePeace-DisruptWar, we wanted to help people like you get out on the street when the killing starts. Militarism is all about killing.
We have seen 6 months of killing in Gaza. You know this is an escalation; even compared with Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. The United States, the UK, Australia, they’ll force it to all to happen again if we are not on the streets.
We are joining the April 15 (#A15) day of action against the genocide in Australia. People say NO to GENOCIDE in Gaza. Never again means NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE.
We are getting close. Things are shifting. So many of you are taking such great steps. We welcome the growth of an awesome anti militarism movement.
Actions are planned at Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, Sydney, Geelong, Darwin, Canberra, Alice Springs, Bendigo, Woollongong.
Still looking for a target in your neighbourhood? Wage Peace has developed a weapons map showing the locations of weapons companies building components for the F35. Based on Michelle Fahy’s research, we discovered there’s a weapons component manufacturer near your.

Demand Deakin Cut Weapons Ties. #A15 Geelong
MONDAY, APRIL 15TH AT 8:30AM, Deakin Waterfront Campus, Western Beach Rd
PROTEST TO DEMAND DEAKIN CUT WEAPONS TIES. BRING BANNERS!
It has been six months of genocide and enough is enough. We want the slaughter to stop. We want Geelong to step up and take a stand – to say we’ll no longer be complicit in the death of tens of thousands of Palestinians, the forced famine of an entire population or the mass destruction of infrastructure in Gaza.
Shamefully, Deakin University is complicit in the actions of the Israeli military in Gaza. Through its Carbon Nexus facility and central role in the Geelong Advanced Fibre Cluster, Deakin University conducts research and development for weapons manufacturers who are supplying the Israeli military, including BAE Systems and Geelong companies Quickstep, Chemring and Marand Precision Engineering. These companies all make critical components for the lethal F-35 fighter jets that Israel is using to drop bombs on Gaza, including flares, vertical tail components and trailers for mounting engines. In addition, BAE supplies the Israeli military with a wide range of weapons, including components for combat aircraft, munitions, missile launching kits and armored vehicles, being used to commit genocide and war crimes on Palestinians in Gaza.
In addition, Deakin has partnerships with a range of other weapons manufacturers that are profiting from arming the Israeli military, such as Lockheed Martin, Thales and General Dynamics.
Join us to demand that Deakin University cut ties with these Israeli-linked weapons manufacturers and commit to purposeful education and technological development for the benefit of humanity, not for death and destruction.
Bring banners with your message for Deakin.
