... From Hiroshima to Yucca Mountain to the Middle East.

Ceremony and Nonviolent Action at Livermore Nuclear Weapons Lab

A morning of protest and action, featuring a Japanese
'Hibakusha' - an atomic bomb survivor at one of the principal nuclear weapons design labs in the world, a mere 50 miles from San Francisco.

** SPEAKERS for August 6 **
NORMAN SOLOMON, nationally-syndicated media criticKeiji Tsuchiya, Hiroshima atomic bomb survivor
DANIEL ELLSBERG, outspoken official who leaked the Pentagon Papers
Marylia Kelley, executive director of Tri-Valley CAREs
Jackie Cabasso, executive director of Western States Legal FoundationDavid Seaborg, son of Nobel Prize scientist who discovered plutonium

On the anniversary of the Hiroshima atomic bomb demand an end to the war in Iraq, no military attacks on Iran or North Korea, and the global abolition of nuclear weapons, starting at home.

It has been 61 years since the U.S. dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, and another nuclear tragedy looms dangerously close. With the Bush Administration’s policy of creating lower yield, more “usable” nuclear weapons, now is a more important time than ever in calling for the abolition of all weapons of mass destruction and war.

PEACE CAMP: Please come join us on August 5 in Del Valle Regional Park for the Livermore Peace Camp! Space is limited, e-mail Butterfly [at] Lacy.com to reserve a spot.
