THANK YOU, CINDY, FOR YOUR CONTINUING
SUPPORT,
KIND WORDS, AND TRUE PATRIOTIC SPIRIT!
AN INVITATION TO JOIN TOGETHER
In response to the betrayal of the antiwar cause
by Congress,
Cindy Sheehan gave a call to all citizens to
“...join us in Philadelphia on July
4th to try and figure a way out of this 'two' party system
that is bought and paid for by the war machine which has a stranglehold on every
aspect of our lives. As for myself, I am leaving the Democratic Party. You have
completely failed those who put you in power to change the direction our country
is heading. We do not condone our government's violent meddling in sovereign
countries and we condemn the continued murderous occupation of
We join together in Philadelphia on the 4th of July in the spirit of ’76 to confront a tyranny that has taken over this nation and threatens the future of civilization, as well as life on the planet.
We face a dire reality. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan continue with no end in sight. A nuclear strike on Iran may occur at any moment, based on a “false flag” terrorist attack to be blamed on Iran, as noted by Brzezinski and others. The neoconservative mania of the White House breeds war and hatred abroad. Secret prisons and torture have become routine. Peace will not come to Israel, Palestine or Iraq without embracing the principle that “all men are created equal.” An intimidated Congress continues to abdicate its obligations in violation of the same Constitution our soldiers die to defend.
We can no longer accept this reality. We must change it.
This historical moment demands that we bring together diverse movements from the antiwar, peace and social justice, impeachment, 9/11 truth, civil liberties, human rights, veterans and religious communities, along with concerned citizens across America, to act strategically as a United Front to deal with this crisis. Together, we pledge to respect each group’s independence, while recognizing each other’s contribution and greater potential in a common goal to stop the war.
