"No Blood for Oil!"

Text from a simple poster issue by the ACF in the Spring of 1980. At that time the Carter administration was seeking to reintroduce the military draft (which had been suspended since the end of the Viet Nam war).
The USSR had invaded Afghanistan and blood hell was going on in Lebanon (between Christians, supported by Israel, and Lebanese muslims, mainly supported by Syria).

NO BLOOD FOR OIL!

We of the Anarchist Communist Federation are vehemently and unalterably opposed to draft registration and conscription in whatever country they may occur

THE DRAFT IS SLAVERY
AND CANNOT BE TOLERATED

Once again young workers and students will be forced to risk their lives to maintain the profits of the powerful few. We condemn an economic system which forces youth into the military because no jobs are available.

We will aid and abet anyone engaged in anti-draft struggles or G.I. resistance within the military,

(Issued Spring 1980)

Sorry, I tried to figure out how to do a proper library posting. Didn't quite work out.

Looks OK to me, Syndicalist. Are you able to provide a photo/scan of the poster though?
