Subject: [L-I] Emergency Iraq Protests April 9-12

Update on EMERGENCY IRAQ PROTESTS

NATIONALLY-COORDINATED DAYS OF ACTION
Friday, April 9 - Monday, April 12

From Friday, April 9 through Monday, April 12 there will be nationally-coordinated emergency local demonstrations in cities and towns throughout the country. Thousands will demand U.S. OUT OF IRAQ, Bring the Troops Home Now and Money for jobs, education and healthcare - Not for wars of aggression in response to a call initiated by the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition.

The revolt sweeping Iraq in opposition to foreign occupation has resulted in the White House and Pentagon ordering a reign of terror against all those who defy U.S. dictates. Hundreds of Iraqis have been killed. A large number of U.S. troops have also died. And there is no let up in sight. The Iraqi people want the U.S. occupation to end and the U.S. troops and their families increasingly demand that the U.S. leave Iraq. The war and occupation have been justified with lies and deceit by the administration. On March 20, hundreds of thousands of people in the United States and millions around the world took to the streets in opposition to the Bush administration. The current crisis in Iraq is again stimulating protests around the country and around the world.

Please see below for details about how you can get involved - join the demonstration in your city, help to spread the word, and if there is no demonstration planned, begin to organize one now! Protests are planned throughout the East Coast, West Coast, Midwest and South, including in Augusta, ME; Binghamton, NY; Buffalo, NY; Charlotte, NC; Chicago, IL; Ferndale, MI; Grand Rapids, MI; Kingston, NY; Long Island, NY; Los Angeles, CA; Massachusetts, MA; Middletown, NY; New York, NY; San Diego, CA; San Francisco, CA; and Washington, DC.
