Troops Out Now Rally Saturday March 18th --->>>

I haven't seen much publicity about this. There are events in many cities. Here is the NYC info. Anyone going?




http://troopsoutnow.org/

March 18 Rally at Times Sq. (41st & Broadway, NYC), followed by a march to the U.N.

March 18 & 19, 2006 will mark the third anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. The Troops Out Now Coalition calls on the entire antiwar community at the local and national level to rise above anything that would hinder the unity that the world and history demands of us. Together we must grasp the opportunity to help transform the turning tide against the war into a human tidal wave of antiwar resistance in the streets.

On the weekend of March 18 & 19, TONC joins with all who are calling for coordinated mass actions coast to coast and around the world. TONC proposes that the movement jointly target military recruiting stations all across the country on this weekend with coordinated protests, especially neighborhood recruiting stations in poor communities and communities of color. We can shut the war down, and the way to start is by shutting down military recruiting.

In the New York City region we call on activists to protest in the morning at neighborhood recruiting offices.
Donate to help mobilize for March 18 & 19

In the afternoon we urge everyone to converge on Times Square at 1 PM for a rally to demand the immediate, unconditional, complete withdrawal of all occupying forces from Iraq, followed by a march on the UN to demand "US/UN hands off Iran! Investigate Bush's human rights violations in the Gulf Coast!"

1. Good luck with your rally,
we have one in Dallas TX on Sunday March 19th. But i haven't heard much about the rally in Dallas, i sent them an email but never heard back, can't understand why they're keeping it so quite.
