End Occupation: Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine & Everywhere!
Fund Jobs, Healthcare & Education, Not Militarism!
Stop Budget Cuts, Tuition Hikes & Attacks on Working Families!
Join veterans, students, activists, union members and thousands of others in Los Angeles to protest against the U.S. war machine. March 19 is the 8th anniversary of the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Iraq today remains occupied. The war in Afghanistan is raging. The U.S. is invading and bombing Pakistan. The U.S. is financing endless atrocities against the people of Palestine, backing Mubarak in Egypt until hours before he stepped down, relentlessly threatening Iran and bringing Korea to the brink of a new war.
While the United States will spend $1 trillion for war, occupation and weapons in 2011, 30 million people in the United States remain unemployed or severely underemployed, and cuts in education, housing and healthcare are imposing a huge toll on the people in California and across the country. Saturday, March 19, the anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, will be a national day of action against the war machine.
