Global Day of Protest on the Year Anniversary of Invasion of Iraq March and Rally: March 20 The World Still Says No to War
Last year, millions upon millions took to the streets in an unprecedented show of worldwide grassroots solidarity against the war in Iraq. On this year anniversary of the invasion, there will be countless numbers speaking out again in a unified voice of protest at over 200 events in the U.S. and in over 50 countries across the globe.
It isn't just the "usual suspects" who are speaking out and who see through Bush's jingoism, fearmongering, and lies. The growing numbers of disillusioned are from all points on the political spectrum. And, as Bush gears up for four more years, it's more important than ever for us to put aside our differences, get out in the streets, and stand together in resounding opposition to Bush's policies of preemptive strikes and occupation, and against the war profiteering of his corporate cronies.
Grab some friends and join CODEPINK as we unite with over 500 organizations and innumerable individuals across the globe demanding truth, peace, and justice for Iraq and its people!
Wear a pink slip and write a message on it telling Bush he's fired for the chaotic, illegal mission he's accomplished in Iraq.
