October 27th Mobilization To End The War
Dear activists, colleagues and friends,
It has been over 4 and a half years since the invasion of Iraq . 3,835 U.S. soldiers and over 1 million Iraqi citizens have lost their lives. U.S. taxpayers have spent over $600 billion on this war with no end in sight.
This Saturday, October 27th, you can take a stand. United for Peace and Justice is coordinating over 150 peace groups across the country for demonstrations in 11 cities.
Boston, Chicago, Jonesborough Tennessee, Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York City, Orlando, Philadelphia, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, and Seattle.
There are also events in Fairbanks, Tucson, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Denver, Kapaa Hawaii, Des Moines, Smithfield NC, and Oklahoma City.
We made a video to help get the word out. Watch it here and recruit your friends to come:

Please come! Four years ago this month we documented the lies that led us into this war in "Uncovered: The War on Iraq ," and last year we took on the mercenaries, cost-plus contracts, Blackwater and Halliburton in " Iraq for Sale : The War Profiteers." Both of these stories are now widely known in the broader media thanks to your efforts in screening the films and organizing with them.
This new video is about getting people into the streets and DOING SOMETHING.
See you on Saturday!
