Activists Call for;

End the War in Iraq! No New War On Korea!

On Saturday October 28 anti war protestors from all over Northern California will be marching down San Francisco’s Market Street to say no to war and occupation. The recent death toll report from the John Hopkins School of Public Health that 655,000 Iraqis have died from the war comes at a time when the war and conditions in Iraq are dramatically getting worse. U.S. casualties in October are approaching record levels. Total U.S. casualties – killed, wounded or evacuated from Iraq due to serious injury or illness -- total more than 41,000. The war is now costing more than $270 million per day, an astounding $3,400 per second.

Meanwhile the Bush administration's policies are now threatening a new war on the Korean Peninsula. While we join with people everywhere in seeking to end the scourge of nuclear weapons once and for all, we recognize that North Korea is not a "threat." This is an example of U.S. war propaganda. It is the U.S. government that has detonated 1,232 nuclear bombs since 1945. Two whole cities -- Hiroshima and Nagasaki -- were incinerated by U.S. atomic weapons. The U.S. possesses 16,000 nuclear weapons today and is endlessly carrying out mock invasions and mock bombing campaigns of North Korea. Having been cast as part of the "Axis of Evil," North Korea has felt compelled to resume a nuclear program that it had earlier frozen.

The A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition has initiated a call for locally coordinated protests on Saturday, October 28; throughout the Country just days before the charade of the mid term election takes place. The only real way that people in the U.S. can bring the issue of the Iraq war onto the U.S. political stage is by taking it to the streets.
