Friends of the Earth believe that social, economic and environmental justice – not militarism - are fundamental to peace. Talisman Sabre is part of a legacy of Western colonialism, economic exploitation and securing the environmental wealth of other nations for the U.S. alliance. Talisman Sabre is designed to improve Australian military “interoperability” with the U.S. and prepares both countries for aggressive military and political posturing. War does not create peace; increased militarism will not increase justice in the world.
