> Who will stop George W. Bush and his unjust
> war? This is the question that is being asked by
> the Canadian people and the people of the
> world. The U.N. was established after the
> Second World War to create a mechanism by
> which conflicts between countries can be
> resolved. One of its founding premises was
> that the use of force would only be used as a
> last resort. Where is the U.N. today? Why is it
> not playing its role to stop this war?
>
> Evey day there is news that more and more
> U.S. and British troops are being sent to the
> Middle East, with more and more ships and
> planes. Speech after speech is given by George
> W. Bush that he wants "regime change", that
> a war in Iraq is in the U.S. interest. One
> country after the other is submitting to the
> U.S. agenda, either being bribed or threatened;
> some of the details are known, while other
> details will come out later.
>
> How will we stop the war? How can we
> prevent Canada becoming part of this
> aggression? The people of Hamilton are taking
> measures to oppose the war. Demonstrations
> have been held recently, on October 5 on
> November 16, 2002. The students of Saltfleet
> High School organized a demonstration to
> oppose the war. Various teach-ins and forums
> have been held. There are weekly vigils being
> held at the corner of King and James, every
> Wednesday evening from 5:OO to 6:OO p.m.
> followed by a discussion.

> As part of this movement against this unjust
> war, various organizations including the
> November 16 Coalition and CARMA (Citizens
> Against Racism and Military Aggression) are
