> Tens of thousands of people will be converging for a
> National Anti-War March to TAKE IT TO THE WHITE HOUSE on
> Saturday MARCH 15. There will be parallel activities in
> Los Angeles and San Francisco.
>
> Buses, vans and car caravans are traveling from over 100
> cities in more than 35 states to join the March 15
> demonstrations. The listing of transportation being

> It has been the street protests in the United States and
> around the world in the last few months that have become
> the biggest single political factor confronting and
> restraining the war-makers. We have always believed that
> the only thing that could prevent this aggression against
> Iraq was for all of us -- the people of the world -- to
> organize and become a major political force through mass
> action.
>
> Reminiscent of an important phenomena during Vietnam,
> heated public opinion is beginning to create fissures even
> inside of the U.S. government as officials begin to
> distance themselves from U.S. government policy. During
> the 1960s this led to the publication of the Pentagon
> Papers and the release of other information that revealed
> that the government had been lying to the people. In this
> regard, we note the recent resignation of John Brady
> Kiesling, a career diplomat with twenty years of service
> in the State Department. In his resignation letter,
> Kiesling wrote "I am resigning because I have tried and
> failed to reconcile my conscience with my ability to
> represent the current U.S. Administration."
>
> With each passing day the Bush Administration encounters
> new hurdles that constitute a growing deterrent force to
> war. We must use every moment available to continue to
> build this global grassroots movement into the most
> serious obstacle facing the war-makers.
>
> The next two weeks will be critical. The Bush
> administration is doing everything to steamroll world
> public opinion. Bush is assembling a coalition not of the
> willing, but of the bribed and coerced, as they twist arms
> and hand out tens of billions in an attempt to manipulate
> member nation states and violate the U.N. Charter.
>
> THE PLAN FOR THE EMERGENCY CONVERGENCE ON THE WHITE HOUSE
> is to gather at 12 noon at the Washington Monument (just
> south of the White House, Constitution Ave. between 15th
> and 17th Sts. NW) for a rally and march.
