Bay Area Community Gears Up for Nov. 3 Anti-War March
"The lives of children around the world—especially in Palestine and Iraq—are in danger every day because of the militarism and misguided foreign policies of both political parties. Meanwhile, those who speak up for children and provide humanitarian aid are coming under increasing scrutiny and pressure. The Middle East Children's Alliance is proud to join Not in Our Name in its call to stand up to war and injustice—for the sake of all our children." Barbara Lubin, Executive Director of the Middle East Children's Alliance |
