THE PEOPLE WANT PEACE BUT INSTEAD GET WAR!

Today thousands of people from around the US are marching through the streets of Washington, DC. For the last six years the prestige of the US has been going down in the eyes of world opinion. We have been lied to and deceived as the government takes over the job of the UN and tries to run the world in the name of “War on terrorism”. Afghanistan and Iraq have become quagmires for the US while at home it does not care for working people, organized labor, Black people and immigrants. The quality of housing, education and health care have all deteriorated. The US government is only interested in those with money.

A conference of world Muslim scholars has called for a dialogue with any group that has been called terrorist just as the Bush government did with North Korea after labeling it part of the “axis of evil”. The US does not have one good friend in the world to tell it that its policies are wrong, not the EU, NATO, or the Islamic Conference.

As a result, the masses of Americans have become increasingly frustrated with the Congress for continuing to fund the war and with the Justice Department and judges for endorsing repressive legislation like the Patriot Act. The American people want resources to help rebuild the US and provide adequate health care, better education and jobs for all. They demand an amnesty for immigrant working people, this will help to unite millions of families who should not be treated as criminals. The people want their sons and daughters to return home safe before they suffer further physical and mental damage.

Abroad they want an end to the secret detentions in Guantanamo Bay and military tribunals. The American people desire a foreign policy that will again bring respect to the US by treating countries as equals. In line with this the people of Burma should be supported in their fight against the dictatorship as well as the people of Nepal in their struggle for democracy and against the monarchy. Military attacks, like the one launched by Israel against Syria should be condemned and her sovereignty respected. So should that of Kashmir. And the Palestinians should be recognized in their demand for an independent state. The occupations of Kashmir and Palestine must end!

Finally, the US should halt its war of words against Iran. If the US and other nuclear powers want to stop the proliferation of nuclear weapons they should start at home and reduce their own nuclear stockpiles. No country should attack or threaten to attack nuclear facilities in another country.

The people of the entire world demand peace!
