From Iraq to Palestine, Occupations Are a Crime!
In light of recent developments in Palestine, where the Israeli military and Israeli settler gangs are attacking Jerusalem and its holy sites, Arab, Black, and Latino youth organizers from the southwest side of Chicago, the Palestine Solidarity Group-Chicago, and the United States Palestinian Community Network (USPCN)-Chicago invite all Palestinians, Arabs, and our supporters to join in a Palestine support contingent at this Thursday’s city-wide anti war rally and march (starting at 5:30 PM on Thursday, March 18 at the Federal Plaza on Adams and Dearborn), commemorating the 7th anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
Besides the slogans for the main rally, our contingent will be demanding:
Freedom and Self-Determination for the Palestinian People
An End to the Current Siege on Gaza and Occupied Jerusalem
An End to the Occupation of Palestine
The Right of Return for Palestinian Refugees
Freedom for Palestinian Political Prisoners
We will march with a 30-foot wide Palestinian flag to send the message that the United States must be forced to end its militarism across the world, from ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to stopping the funding of Israeli apartheid and terrorism.
Bring your Palestinian flags and posters with the above slogans!
To travel with us downtown by bus, meet at 4:30 PM on Thursday, March 18, at the offices of the Arab American Action Network (AAAN) at 3148 W. 63rd Street.
