NOW MORE THAN EVER…THIS HAS GOT TO BE STOPPED!
TAKE ACTION IN WASHINGTON, D.C. WEDNESDAY MARCH 19
Too Many Years of a Criminal Regime! 5 Years of Illegitimate War! End It!
Drive the War Criminals from Office!
On March 19, World Can't Wait, along with other 0rganizations, plans to disrupt business as usual in Washington, D.C. Come to the home of the criminals!
Gather in Lafayette Park at 1:30 pm with people in a sea of orange jumpsuits, in solidarity with and representing those that are being tortured in Guantanamo Bay Prison, Abu Ghraib, Bagram in Afghanistan, and CIA "black sites" around the globe. A demonstration showing that waterboarding IS torture, is planned directly in front of the residence of the biggest war criminal in history.
The Park will become a rallying point for those determined to put an end to this illegitimate and immoral war, and who demand justice by driving the war criminals from Office now, not waiting until 2009! We are done with secret renditions, spying on people, lying to the public, using hundreds of signing statements to disobey laws, rounding up immigrants and detaining them in facilities still being built.
JOIN US in Washington, D.C. at the SCENE of the CRIME!
