*www.theworldagainstwar.org*
In *London*, tens of thousands of people will converge on Parliament on
Saturday calling for an end to Bush's wars. Another massive
demonstration will take place simultaneously in *Glasgow*.
Five years on almost everything the anti-war movement
predicted about the invasion of Iraq has come true, yet the
government continues to ignore the view of the overwhelming
majority in this country, who have consistently opposed the
war.
The London demonstration will
assemble at Trafalgar Square at 12am. It will surround parliament and end in Parliament Square.
We are asking every one of our supporters to march with us.
Please bring flowers, wreaths, shoes or other symbols to leave in Parliament Square to commemorate the victims of these devastating wars.
We are also asking everyone to spread the word as widely as possible in the hours remaining before the demonstration.
Please send e-mails, phone your friends, tell your
colleagues, leaflet your street or estate or station to ensure the maximum possible turnout for this vital march.
Speakers include Tony Benn, ex-SAS trooper Ben Griffin,
Green Party MEP Caroline Lucas, Lindsey German from Stop the
War, John Mcdonnell MP, *George Galloway* MP, film director
Nick Broomfield and representatives from Palestine.
MARCH ROUTE:
Down Whitehall, over Westminster Bridge, down Lambeth Palace Road, across Lambeth Bridge, down Millbank to Parliament Square for a short closing rally.

U.S.A: Events Planned for March 10-19, 2008, to Resist the U.S.

10 to 12, 2008 (Monday to Wednesday) in Washington, D.C.: Stop-Loss
Congress*
This March, while tens of thousands of Americans in Washington, D.C.,
and all over the United States will be participating in acts of
nonviolent civil resistance to protest the ongoing occupations of Iraq
and Afghanistan, and involuntarily deployed U.S. soldiers and innocent
civilian victims will begin another year of occupation, torture, and
murder, U.S. congress members will be on vacation (from the 15th to
30th, technically a "district work period"), ignoring the killing and
suffering they have enabled, supported, and financed.
To intensify the irony, Congress has condoned a widespread stop-loss
policy <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop-loss_policy> in the military
which requires soldiers to involuntarily extend their tours and prolong
the killing. It is time to Stop-Loss Congress!
<http://www.stop-losscongress.org/>
<http://www.stop-losscongress.org/>
<http://www.stop-losscongress.org/>
On Monday March 10, and Tuesday March 11, we will deliver "official"
stop-loss notices to all members of Congress in their Capitol Hill
offices. These will notify them that all of their LEAVES, VACATIONS and
HOME VISITS HAVE BEEN CANCELLED until further notice. Just as they
require that active-duty personnel endure involuntary extensions of
their tours of duty, we, the people for whom they work, are notifying
them that they, too, will have their tours of duty INVOLUNTARILY
EXTENDED until every foreign soldier and mercenary is out of Iraq, and
home. When all the troops and contractors get home, then Congress can go
home, and no sooner.
Monday evening March 10, 10 PM: Party at St. Stephen's Church with
political HIP HOP performers SON of NUN and HEAD ROC, Admission is by
donation.
Tuesday evening March 11, 6PM-8PM: Premiere of the documentary film "DAD
ON FIRE BLUES" by filmmaker Scott Haman at BUSBOYS & POETS in
Washington, D.C. Carlos Arredondo will speak. Rick Burnley will recite
poetry. LIVE Music by EMMA'S REVOLUTION.

On Wednesday March 12, We will take nonviolent action on Capitol Hill,
to ensure that, while thousands of Iraqis, Afghanis, and foreign
invaders die and are injured for life, the members of Congress and their
staffs do not go home but remain to DO THEIR DUTY, and immediately end
the funding of the occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. No members of
Congress goes home until THE TROOPS COME HOME.

policy. In death masks, all in black, some wearing the name of someone
killed, others with statistics measuring the scale of the tragedy, we

the streets and haunting the periphery of the other actions. We will
then converge at a given time all-together to make the long march for
justice with stops at the State Department, Justice Department and
Supreme Court culminating with acts of civil resistance.

World Can't Wait Events in DC on 19th:
<http://worldcantwait.net/>
Join in acts of creative non-violent civil resistance!
1:30 p.m. in Lafayette Square Park join World Can't Wait and a sea of
orange jumpsuits in solidarity with and representing those 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 our biggest war criminal other than Dick Cheney. The Park will become
a rallying center for all those who are determined to put an end to this
illegitimate and immoral occupation and demand justice by driving the
war criminals from office now, not waiting for 2009! We are done with
secret renditions, warrantless spying, lying to the public, using
signing statements to disobey laws, rounding up immigrants and detaining
them.
