NO ATTACK on IRAN
Saturday July 19th
Arlington Center (near Starbucks, Mass. Ave and Medford St.) at 10 AM

10am: Begin with a vigil and music in Arlington Center.
Bring signs and banners focused on Iran

11am: Brass Band leads us on a march from Arlington Center to Porter Square in Cambridge. Bring drums, kazoos, etc., for the march.

Noon: Gathering and speaker at Porter Square (near T-station).

U.S. officials say Israel is mounting a “full court press” to get the Bush Administration to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. The United States is currently conducting covert operations against Iran. Congress is considering a resolution endorsing a U.S. air, sea and land blockade of Iran in violation of international law. In June Israeli jets conducted a military exercise over the Eastern Mediterranean, and on July 8 and 10 Iran test-fired missiles.

At a time when voices calling for real diplomacy and negotiations are being silenced, it is up to us to speak out clearly against another illegal war, which would be a catastrophe for all involved.

The time for marching in parades is over.

It's time to learn to march with militias.

Protesting Iraq had -zero- effect... the era of protest is over.

Protests no longer work, but I'm sure boycotting will. What to boycott, though, is beyond me.
