INLA: USA Company made gas grenades
Tabi - 12.11.2001 22:29

 http://www.ozgurluk.org/press/msg00200.html

The International Department of the IRSP today said that they had
identified the company who manufactured the gas grenades used by
Turkish forces against the death fasters and their supporters in
Istambul. The gas used against the Turkish hunger strikers and their
supporters by the government is called 5230 CS Riot Smoke. It is made
by an American firm, Combined Systems Inc., based in New York.




"While the company did not lob the gas grenades which were used to kill
six on the death fasters, they supplied them to the government who used
them against their own citizens," IRSP International Department
spokesperson Peadar Baile said. "The supporters of the IRSP in the
U.S., the Irish Republican Socialist Committees of North America, are
calling for all those concerned to write Combined Systems to protest
their sale of these gas grenades to the repressive Turkish regime."

Mr. Baile provided the firm´s mailing address as: Combined Systems
Inc., 226 Newtown Road, Plainview, New York 11803. Their telephone
number was given as: 516-777-7888.

"These are the folks who killed Arzu," said IRSP´s International
Department Co-Secretary Terry Harkin, form London. "They killed her.
Maybe they did not throw the bomb into the house, but they made it and
exported it to a bunch of bastards who did so. They are culpable in my
eyes. They do not have an office here, but our comrades in the U.S. are
initiating a protest against the company, which I fully endorse."

"We are asking all those who support the Turkish hunger strikers, all
those who support human and civil rights, to write protesting Combined
Systems´ culpability in these deaths and asking for them to cease all
further sales to the Turkish government, so long as they continue
policies of repression and violence against their own citizens," Mr.
Baile said. "Those who create these weapons and supply them to
reactionary, despotic regimes must be called to account for their
actions.

"The murder of six death fasters was an act of inhumanity, and the IRSP
reiterate our call upon the Irish government to recall their Ambassador
to Turkey in protest."
