100 DAYS AFTER BUSH DECLARED THE "END" OF THE WAR AGAINST IRAQ ...
PROTEST MARCH
Saturday, August 9, 12 Noon
Meet at 24th and Mission, San Francisco
END THE OCCUPATION, U.S. TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ!
100 days after President Bush declared the major combat in Iraq officially over, join SF Bay Area anti-war groups as we take to the streets to say no to war and occupation! Not only were thousands of innocent Iraqis killed during the war, but 100 days into the occupation, U.S. troops and Iraqi civilians are being killed every single day. The cost of the occupation has skyrocketed to $3.9 billion per month – while our schools and important social services programs have their budgets slashed. And a flood of government leaks and media reports confirm that the anti-war movement was right all along: The Bush administration lied about the alleged Iraqi threat to scare people into backing their war.
