Marions for Peace Speak Out Against the War

A coalition of hundreds of peace and justice groups are planning massive non violent demonstrations in Washington, D.C. the weekend of September 24 - 26 in order to crystallize the growing national revulsion against an unj ust war which produces casualties in Iraq equivalent to that in London July 7th on an almost daily basis.

People in Marion County, Florida, who want to end the war as soon as possible but are unable to travel to Washington can join in supporting this national effort by participating in an open public appeal to stop the war, bring our troops home and establish a Marshall Plan to rebuild the country which we have decimated without just cause.

We plan to accomplish this with a full page ad in the Ocala Star Banner petitioning the President and the Congress to put an end to this failed national policy which costs us so dearly in the deaths and ruptured lives of our valiant military and the bankrupt future of generations to come.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if there were a flowering of similar ads in papers throughout the country that weekend? It's a lot of work but we did it before Bush formally started his war. We're going to speak out again. How about you?
