(en) US, March 20 Student Day of Action Against the War,

Date Mon, 26 Feb 2007 09:59:49 +0200


This call came from a student meeting of about 100 students representing 20 campuses that was organized by some southern SDS groups at the School of the Americas Protest in November. Here's the info on the March 20 day of action. Pass it on to as many student / youth activists as you can!
The war in Iraq is entering its fourth year. Despite the fact that the overwhelming majority of citizens want the war to end, despite the fact that U.S. forces are being defeated by the Iraqi resistance, Bush recently announced plans to send 21,500 more troops to Iraq. These troops are being committed to fight and die in an unjust war based on lies and greed. Four years is four years too many. The Iraqi people want the foreign occupiers out. They know the U.S. government is not a "liberator," but whose presence means only continued violence, death, and destruction.

We, students and young people here in the U.S.,
support the right of the Iraqi people to
self-determination.

We refuse to accept this new strategy to "expand the
military," and reject any means the government may use
to make these new troops materialize - whether through
the implementation of a draft or the continued use of
manipulative and deceptive recruitment techniques.

We refuse to be subtle in our outcry against this war,
we refuse to do nothing and be silent while people are
killed in our name for profit for the rich and we
refuse to be sent overseas in a war for oil.

This past November, 100 students from twenty different
college campuses came together at a Students for a
Democratic Society meeting in Ft.Benning, GA and
unanimously decided that March 20th be declared a
national day of student and youth resistance against
the war! SDS is calling on all students and youth to
get out in the streets, get involved and get organized
against this war! We, the students and youth of this
country, are taking an active stand against US
imperialism and fighting for a better world. We reject
this war of greed and profit, and are walking out of
our classes and taking to the streets in protest!

FIGHT THE WAR MACHINE - GET ORGANIZED, GET INVOLVED,
AND GET IN THE STREETS!
