Take immediate action to halt the delivery of tear gas canisters to Egypt.

Created by M.H. on November 29, 2011

Last week at least 45 young Egyptians lost their lives in Tahrir, many of those because of deadly, American made, tear gas.
As deeply disturbed citizens of the global village, we urge you Mr. president to take immediate action to halt the delivery of cancerous gas to Egypt.
Combined Tactical Systems (http://www.combinedsystems.com/), the tear gas manufacturer, has helped to turn Tahrir square, the international symbol of freedom, into a killing field.
Even more amorally the last shipment of 21 more tons of the gas arrived in containers in Suez, Egypt on the 28th Nov. 2011.
We strongly urge the White House to do the correct thing and deny CTS any political cover in skirting its responsibility for the murder of innocents.
