Sean Penn, Cindy Sheehan to Address 5th Anniversary Iraq War Protest, March 16th: Please Help Out

Call to Action on the Fifth Anniversary of the Iraq War
Join Cindy Sheehan, Sean Penn and other nationally known speakers in San Francisco on March 16th

March 19th will mark five years of war in Iraq. We must not let this milestone pass without reminding our elected officials that the people of San Francisco opposed this immoral war from the beginning, and continue to oppose it today. Let us join together to demand an end to the Iraq occupation, no attack on Iran and accountability for those in the Administration who misled our country down this misbegotten road. Let us remember the 4000 American lives and countless Iraqi lives lost thus far, as well as the physically wounded and psychologically scarred veterans of this unnecessary conflict.

On March 16th - the Sunday before the fifth anniversary - Cindy Sheehan, Sean Penn and other nationally known speakers will address a memorial event in San Francisco. Our goal is to attract thousands of participants and focus media attention on our agenda. The event is being sponsored by Gold Star Families for Peace and a broad coalition of local peace, religious and community organizations.

We have only a limited amount of time - and limited resources - to organize and publicize this action. If you would like to help, we ask that you join us for an organizing meeting on Sunday, February 17th, at 12 noon, at 1260 Mission Street (between 8th and 9th Streets).
