Hartford, State Capitol Building

 

After more than five years the war in Iraq roars on with roughly one third
of Iraq's 26 million people killed, wounded or displaced; more than 4,000 US
soldiers dead, hundreds of thousands suffering severe physical and
psychological wounds, and trillions of dollars going up in smoke.  Instead
of withdrawing forces, US policy makers are expanding combat in Afghanistan
and into Pakistan, ordering assaults in Syria and threatening to Invade
Iran.  They Continue to support Israel's brutal occupation of Palestinians
that repeatedly turns into regional war - most recently in the summer of
2006.  With a full blown economic crisis bringing skyrocketing home
foreclosures, rising unemployment, loan freezes, and collapsing pensions,
war funds are needed at home now more than ever! 

 

 

Join activists from across Connecticut as part of a week of nationally
coordinated actions to demand that our sons, daughters, mothers, fathers,
brothers and sisters be brought home now!
