The International Action Center is calling for an internationally coordinated day of demonstrations against the U.S./NATO bombing of Yugoslavia on APRIL 17, 1999. We encourage all activists to organize demonstrations, picket lines, leaflet and bannering sessions, or press conferences to demand "Stop the U.S./NATO bombing of Yugoslavia." Email us the details of your actions including city, date/time, place, and contact number so that we can post the information of our web page. There will be coordinated demonstrations in cities throughout the world against the war being carried out by the U.S. and NATO. What follows is a press release put out by the International Action Center. Thanks. Keep us posted. IAC International Action Center 39 West 14th Street, #206 New York, NY 10011 212-633-6646 212-633-2889 fax email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.iacenter.org April 8, 1999 For Immediate Release Press Contact: Sara Flounders Brian Becker 212-633-6646 ANTI-WAR ACTIVISTS SET INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PROTESTS AGAINST U.S./NATO BOMBING OF YUGOSLAVIA, SAT., APRIL 17 NEW YORK CITY DEMONSTRATION, SAT., APRIL 17, 12 NOON AT GRAND CENTRAL STATION, AND IN SAN FRANCISCO AT 12 NOON AT POWELL AND MARKET STREETS. On April 7, as U.S./NATO forces intensified their bombing attacks on Yugoslavia, the International Action Center announced an April 17 International Day of Protest against the two-week U.S./NATO war of aggression. Coordinated actions by anti-war activists will take place in over 100 cities throughout the U.S. and around the world demanding "STOP the Bombing, Stop the War Against Yugoslavia." "The fact that the unilateral cease-fire proposed by the Yugoslavian government was completely rejected shows that the bombing has nothing to do with a humanitarian crisis and everything to with a massive U.S. takeover of the Balkans," said Deirdre Sinnott of the International Action Center. "In fact, the bombing raids intensified after the U.S. and NATO flatly dismissed the cease-fire, and the military is trying to psychologically set the stage for sending in ground troops_even though the overwhelming majority of people in the U.S. oppose sending ground troops." "Now the U.S. is demanding that the radio and television media in Yugoslavia broadcast three hours of U.S. war propaganda or be destroyed, said Sinnott. "So much for free speech." Demonstrations will occur in New York, San Francisco, Claremont CA, Los Angles, London, Minneapolis, Washington, Norfolk, Kingston NY, Chicago, and throughout Italy, Germany, France and Greece. --30-- &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Tsonkwadiyonrat (We are ONE Spirit) Unenh onhwa' Awayaton http://www.tdi.net/ishgooda/ &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
