Ceasefire Now!
Stop the bloodshed! End the Siege of Gaza!
Daily Vigil, January 8-19, 9am-7pm
Largo Goldoni (via del Corso, see map)
Italian groups are organizing a permanent vigil calling for an
end to the war on Gaza. It will be held at Largo Goldoni (via del Corso
between via Tomacelli and via dei Condotti, see map) beginning Thursday, January 8 and
will go on daily from 9am-7pm. There will be readings, music, banners,
flyers, etc. (see below full list of participating groups).
USC4P&J supports this initiative. It will be important to have as many
people there as possible to cover the daily shifts. And our presence will
be particularly important to both speak out against the atrocities being
carried out with our tax dollars as well as to engage the many English
speaking tourists passing by.
Please let us know if you are interested in participating, or if you have
any suggestions or comments: info@peaceandjustice.it
Remember, it's political cover from our government, together with well
over 2 billion in military aid per year, that make all this possible.
Let's do something to stop it!

Upshot of our Nov. 9th group discussion on current politics:
It wasn't the Russians that got us Trump. Or Comey. Or even the massive GOP election fraud. It was the DNC.* *Dem National Committee
To learn how to stop the DNC
from delivering us another Trump, read Autopsy: the Democratic Party in Crisis.

Did someone tell you that U.S. military intervention in Iraq was over? Not true: we're at it again. This time the pretext to drop bombs is "curbing ISIS" (which was created by the U.S. in the first place, to overturn al-Malaki in Iraq and then Assad in Syria, and is now out of hand.
Like what happened to "our" creature al Qaeda in Afghanistan). And the death toll continues to rise...
Write your senators and tell them: "Enough! U.S. out!! Iraq has shown it can curb ISIS by itself!"
