March 18: Troops Out Now rally on 3rd anniversary of invasion


Saturday - March 18 - 1:00pm - Times Square for a rally to demand the immediate, unconditional, complete withdrawal of all occupying forces from Iraq,
followed by a march on the UN to demand "US/UN hands off Iran! Investigate Bush's human rights violations in the Gulf Coast!"

Join with the thousands across the globe who will take to the streets on March 18 to demand "Troops Out Now!"

In the past few hours, the U.S. has launched the largest air assault in three years against the people of Iraq. We do not yet know how many have died in this latest attack, but we do know that well over 100,000 Iraqis have died since the March 2003 U.S. invasion. Thousands more have been swept up in mass arrests and midnight raids and shipped off to the torture chambers of Abu-Ghraib and Guantanamo.

Opposition to the war in Iraq is growing, fueled by revelations of the horrific brutality of the occupation. But in order for this opposition to have an impact, it must be felt in the streets.
