A Nationwide Quit India Campaign Against Coke and Pepsi
On Jan. 20th Jan., 2005 thousands of people across India will surround 87 Coke and Pepsi plants with a human chain from 12 noon to 1:30 pm and serve a notice to Coke and Pepsi to Quit India on the ground of violating article 21 of the Indian constitution which guarantees the right to life. Coke and Pepsi are threatening the fundamental right to life by mining ground water and creating local water famine. They are also threatening the right to life by selling hazardous soft drinks loaded with the toxic chemicals phosphoric Acid, ethylene glycol and carbon dioxide.

1. Excellent! First Ukraine and now India is going to show us how
to take back our power.

I'm glad for them. But I'm starting to think America is becoming a nation of fat and lazy wusses.
