ANTI-WAR RALLY SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 24 2:00 PM SEND MESSAGE TO WASHINGTON: BRING THEM BACK FROM IRAQ! Intersection of Summit and Snelling Avenues, St Paul. Gather for Rally, Sign Postcards, March to a Mail Box. Peace activists from across the country are traveling to Washington DC on September 24 to protest the continuing war and occupation in Iraq. In solidarity, hundreds of rallies will take place in cities nationwide. Featured speakers at the rally are August Nimtz, a U of M political science professor, renowned justice and peace activist, and inspiring leader for social change, and a Gold Star Family member. As participants gather, they will sign postcards addressed to President Bush, telling him: “It's time end the war and occupation in Iraq. Too many people have died. There was no reason for this war. There were no weapons of mass destruction. There was no connection between Iraq and 9-11. Iraq was no threat to our national security. The war has made us less safe and more vulnerable to terrorist attacks. We would like our tax dollars to be spent on what's been neglected at home: education, jobs, health care and domestic infrastructure. We want our soldiers to come home and the people of Iraq to be in charge of their own country.” Sponsors include: Women Against Military Madness (WAMM), Iraq Peace Action Coalition, Sisters of St. Joseph Carondolet, Youth Against War and Racism, and Friends for a Nonviolent World. FFI: WAMM at 612-827-5364.
