Emergency Response Protest: Say NO to the attack on Marjah, Afghanistan!

Protest: In front of the office of U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar

Demand:

• Stop escalating the war in Afghanistan:
• End the war – Bring the troops home now!

In a new escalation of the war in Afghanistan, U.S. & NATO forces have launched an attack on the city of Marjah, a city with over 80,000 residents. Following the dispatch of thousands of additional U.S. troops to Afghanistan, the attack on Marjah represents a new and potentially bloody escalation.

Tens of thousands of Afghan civilians are in imminent peril as U.S. and NATO military forces attempt to enter the city of Marjah. Will Marjah, Afghanistan suffer the same fate as Fallujah, Iraq, which the U.S. also attacked, leaving thousands dead and injured and hundreds of buildings and homes destroyed and damaged?

Join an emergency protest on Thursday, February 18 to speak out against this new escalation of the war and to call for an end to the war and occupation. Gather at the offices of U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar to tell Washington to stop escalating the war in Afghanistan!
