We are targeting the same post/e-mail targets this week to build up momentum. So if you did it before, DO IT AGAIN until we break the comment section!

With over 3,000 e-mails sent and hundreds of comments posted on Aichi-related pages, the recent disruption and takeover of the Aichi Triennale, & the RESIGNATION of the corporate liaison connected to the Aichi-Israel Matching Program from the Triennale Committee, the SMASHTHEMATCH campaign just keeps going!!

This week we call on ALL #SMASHTHEMATCH supporters to take three distinct actions!

COMMENT SLAM on [at] asiangames_2026 Instagram account–leave a comment demanding an END to Aichi’s complicity with genocidal Isrl & #smashthematch!

(Phone numbers on slide 6!)

In our 14th week of action, we continue to support #GROUNDF35 actions around the world, and hope to highlight the chilling truth that the international community still hasn’t fully appreciated: AICHI PREFECTURE IS ONE OF 3 PLACES IN THE WORLD where these ‘genocide jets’ are completed, USING TECHNOLOGY FROM ELBIT SYSTEMS (amongst others)! Aichi is a KEY link in the genocidal supply chain, and our comrades in Japan need your help in exposing & breaking it!

DO NOT think your comments, emails, and phone calls are meaningless. We consistently hear back from our comrades in Japan that it 1) boosts local organisers’ confidence, 2) creates a headache and pressure on Aichi officials who care a lot about their int’l ‘image’, and 3) creates the ‘chatter’ that gets reporters and human rights orgs interested in the deep-investigative work we need to PROVE the despicable genocidal links in the global supply chain locally in Aichi.

CANCEL the Aichi-Israel Matching Program! Weekly Phone & Inbox Blockade SMASHTHEMATCH! A smart phone which has two notifications. The first reads: 愛知はジェノサイドへの加担をやめろ！The second: Matiel Mogannam (Palestine flag emoji) “The Reparations Committee has framed a copy of the 1929 Palestine Arab Women's Congress motion against the Balfour Declaration in their offices!"
WHAT IS IT? Since 2022, the Aichi Prefectural Government in Japan has partnered with the Israel Innovation Authority (IIA) & Startup Nation Central (SNC) to promote collaborations between ‘Israeli’ startups and companies in Aichi. Despite 24+ months of non-stop genocidal war crimes and calls by the local community to cancel this program, this collaboration is belligerently pushing forward to “integrate Israeli cutting-edge technology” into Japan’s manufacturing region. Claiming to promote “Climate, Agri-Food, and Health Tech”, in reality, this “innovation” alliance is in lock-step with Japan’s rapid re-militarization. This program is a deadly fusion of Israel’s immoral, genocidal tech industry with some of the most advanced manufacturers in the world, many of which have barely washed their hands of the bloody profits of Japan’s own imperialist wars.
F-35S MADE IN AICHI! In addition to the Matching Program, Aichi is entangled w/ Isrli military industrial complex through the manufacture of F-35 war planes. Aichi is 1 of only 3 sites worldwide where F-35s for the “Japan Self Defense Forces” are manufactured at the Komaki South Final Assembly & Check Out (FACO) facility! This site is also maintains and repairs F-35s. YABAI!
