Description:
------------------
This event is coordinated by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center www.peaceandjustice.org Urgent Action Alert Bush Expected to Call for Iraq Troop Escalation Next Week 1. Call the White House and Congress to oppose any escalation of the war. Contact info below. 2. An Emergency Protest Demonstration will be held the day after the announcement of any escalation. Gather at the corner of El Camino and Embarcadero, Palo Alto, from 4:30 to 6:30 pm, the day immediately following any Presidential speech announcing any troop increase for Iraq. Background: George Bush is expected to give a major policy address some time next week to outline his new strategy for Iraq. It is becoming increasingly clear that Bush is seriously considering sending more troops to Iraq. Although this action has been euphemistically dubbed a troop "surge" and it will be claimed that the troop increase is only "temporary," it is nothing less than an escalation of the war. And it would be a tragically insane decision.
