Why we are going to Washington. On the four-year anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, and the 40th anniversary of the historic 1967 March on the Pentagon, join the AWC, and hundreds of thousands of protesters from across the globe, as we take our demands straight to the war makers in Washington. As the death toll mounts in Iraq, and President Bush is proceeding with his plans to escalate the war, it is more imperative than ever that the people of the US and the world say Stop the War in Iraq and End the Occupation! More than 150 cities and towns, and a growing number of college campuses and high schools are organizing buses to come to Washington D.C. Thousands of family members of soldiers, veterans and active duty soldiers will be among the huge outpouring at the Pentagon on March 17. This will be one of the most powerful actions of today’s anti-war movement. More information about the march is available at http://www.marchonpentagon.org.
