No war on Iraq! Bring the Troops Home!
With war looming - and Howard refusing to take note of the massive
opposition against the war - the ACT Network Opposing the War (ACT NOW)
is calling on opponents of the war to converge on Federal Parliament on
Canberra on March 23-24 (Sat-Sun). This will be the last week parliament
sits until May 13.
Join with people from Adelaide, Armidale, Bega, Cooma, Melbourne,
Sydney, Tamworth, Wollongong and many other cities to say: No to war!
Buses depart Sydney and Parramatta at 8am Monday March 24, returning by
8pm that day. (Sunday buses TBC). Cost: $40 full, $25 concession (return
ticket).
To book, phone:

9687 5134 or 0428 190 276

Convergence on Parliament
Stop the war!
Bring the troops home!
Sunday March 23 and Monday March 24
Come to Canberra to demand the government hears our message: No War on
Iraq! Bring the troops home. Protests over the 2 days will include
rallies, marches, teach-ins, film showings and work stoppages.
Why march on Canberra? Because thousands of innocent people will be
killed in a war on Iraq. Because the war is not about ``fighting
terrorism'' or eliminating weapons of mass destruction, it's a grab for
Iraq's oil by the wealthiest nations on earth. Because the war is not
about Saddam Hussein failing to comply with UN Resolutions; Israel and
other states regularly flout resolutions and have not been threatened
with attack.
Come to Canberra on March 23-24 to demand John Howard listen to the
voice of the people.
If Howard won't call a plebicite, we'll take the message to him! As the
tens of millions who marched around the world on February 14-16 made
clear. Together we can stop the war.
