The World Says No To The Bush Agenda
(*Note: gather at Convergence Space at 7AM to coordinate, pick up lit, t-shirts, signs)
March down 7th Ave | Sun. Aug. 29 - Noon

9/11 Truth presence will be strongly felt at the United For Peace and Justice mobilization on August 29, sure to be one of the most important protests in U.S. history (march begins at noon). The march route remains unclear as the City still refuses to issue a permit for a rally at Central Park, check the United for Peace website for updates. (Most recent assessments of the evolving legal situation in our endangered Republic indicate that the park remains a place for picnics and assemblies of up to 19 persons. See you there.)

7 pm - Wine and cheese (pizza) complimentary reception for peace and justice leaders.
8 pm - Roundtable discussion of how the peace and justice movement can fight for 9/11 truth to avert the prospect of "endless wars" and save the U.S. constitution.
By exposing the lies of 9/11 we cut the legs out of the bogus argument that we need bloated defense and domestic spying to prevent attacks.

Among the speakers will be Sibel Edmonds, the courageous translator fired by the FBI after revealing evidence that the United States government had received and suppressed specific advance warnings of the Sept. 11th attacks. Why did the 9/11 Commission report completely ignore her testimony?
