 HOPE ≠ WARCall for March and Rally on Anniversary of Afghanistan War
Saturday, October 3, 2009 (tentative date)
When Pres. Obama was elected on a platform of HOPE, the American people expected a speedy end to the Iraq war. They expected negotiations to settle the Afghanistan and Israel/Palestine conflicts and reduce tensions with Iran.
They did not expect the new administration to delay exit from Iraq until 2012, or to escalate the war in Afghanistan by sending 21,000 more troops, as he has done. They did not expect an increase in drone strikes in Pakistan which have already killed 335 people, or the U.S. to strong-arm the Pakistani military into an operation which has left over two million internal refugees.
They did not expect military spending to continue to increase, with over $100 billion appropriated for the Iraq and Afghanistan wars in June 2009.
The administration’s policy review has resulted in a plan for a protracted counter-insurgency war in which human development aid and negotiations serve only as window dressing on a war policy targeted at defeating the Taliban on the battlefield and dominating Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the central Asia region.
Start: 7:00 pm

The National Counter-Recruitment and Demilitarization Conference is less than a month away! On July 17-19 in Chicago, IL, a broad spectrum of people will come together to share skills and to form the relationships needed to build a permanent resistance to militarism.
Earlier, UFPJ encouraged Member Groups who are doing 'Truth-In-Recruiting' or 'Counter-Recruitment' work to attend this conference -- and we still do! You will be provided with a valuable set of practical tools to use in combating military recruiting in schools, neighborhoods, etc., as well as opportunities to connect with others doing this same work across the country. So don't forget to register for the conference while you still can!
Start: 5:30 pm

According to NY Times, 2 million people became refugees inside Pakistan when the operation against the Taliban in Swat, Pakistan was launched aggressively about 3 months ago. They are living in tent camps, in over 100 degree temperatures, and lacking food, medicines, water. These numbers begin to approach the numbers of Afghan’s who fled the Soviet invasion to come to Pakistan as refugees.

The conflict in Afghanistan/Pakistan continues to worsen. The U.S. has sent more troops; there is increased fighting, violence, death and destruction; and a major new war may be coming. We must organize to stop this war, end militarism, and put the priority on funding social justice and improving the quality of life in our communities. This participatory workshop will present some basic information about the war in Afghanistan/Pakistan and cutting the military budget. We will discuss things we can do to help set things right.

Dear Friends,
During the months of August and September we will be showing the
Robert Greenwald documentary, "Rethink Afghanistan" at locations all

the consequences of U.S. policy and the recent troop escalation that
all Americans need to consider. Greenwald and his crew made several
visits to Afghanistan, most recently in March of 2009, and interviewed
many Afghan civilians as well as U.S. and Afghan political leaders and
foreign policy experts. If you are interested in hosting a showing in
your community please contact me at susi@nhpeaceaction.org or call our

 [Note: UJP is asking people to attend this meeting and to raise questions to Rep. Markey, to question the hyper-activity around Iran's nuclear program - ignoring the fact that Israel already has nuclear weapons, and Iran doesn't, and is not currently developing nuclear weapons. The focus on Iran is a diversionary tactic to divert our attention away from the plight of the Palestinians - this is part of the propaganda campaign of the Israeli government. We need to keep the focus on the oppression of the Palestinians, the evictions, the demolition of their houses, the ongoing building of settlements, the situation in Gaza. - Ed.]

More than simply educating students on nuclear issues, we aim to engage every single participant intellectually, emotionally, and personally. We seek to give each participant not only the inspiration to work for a nuclear-free future for the coming year, but the tools and skills to do that work and the opportunity and camaraderie to start this organizing.
