We, as the Progressive Webgroup Alliance member groups managers have agreed on a number of points of unity, and list them below:
- We believe that the implementation of the Universal Declaration on Human Rights signed and declared by member states of the United Nations in 1948 should form the basis of a true "civilised society".
- We strongly condemn any actions by any state which breach International Humanitarian law.
- We believe that the various multinational corporations which have a powerful lobbying influence in many nations should not dictate the policies of governments around the world.
- We condemn the disgraceful manner in which civil liberties have been eroded in the aftermath of the events of the 11th September 2001 which took place in the United States.
- We call upon those who have the ability to do so, to provide true leadership and provide all necessary assistance to promote peace and sustainability in the middle East.
- We believe that double standards are applied by various heads of state in regard to the arms trade and shifting political strategic goals, we want to see an end to these double standards.
- We believe that those responsible for the invasion and occupation of Iraq need to face up to their responsibilities in light of reports which have conclusively proved that there was no "imminent threat" from Iraq. On the basis of the UN charter which states that a nation can only launch pre-emptive strikes if there is a legitimate immediate threat to a nation, (This was, after all the basis for the invasion of the Iraq, and was the "justification" given by leaders for these actions.) we believe that criminal charges should be brought against those responsible.
