  20.  
  21. The public – both in the U.S. and abroad – overwhelmingly opposes U.S. bombing of Syria. Yet both President Obama and the media are working overtime to manufacture approval for a war that most of us reject.
  22.  
  23. On Tuesday night, Obama will go on national TV and do as so many Presidents have before him – advocate bombing another country to "save" it. Like George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Colin Powell, he will string together a series of half-truths and outright lies to justify war.
  24.  
  25. We reject this latest war and the media campaign used to promote it. Join us Tuesday at Tribune Tower, 435 N. Michigan, for Obama's speech, when we'll march to local media outlets to deliver a rebuttal from the American people to the press, the President and Congress: We won't be hustled again -- No war with Syria!
  26.  
  27. Cosponsored by the Gay Liberation Network, Neighbors for Peace, ANSWER Chicago, CAMI-Committee Against the Militarization of Youth/Comite anti-militarizacion, La Voz de Los de Abajo, Northwest Indiana Veterans for Peace, World Can't Wait Chicago, Chicago Area Peace Action, and The Anti-War Committee (list in formation).

  29. Email [email protected] to endorse.

  32. THURSDAY 9/12 - 5PM - Michigan & Randolph
  33. Protest: No War on Syria! No War for the 1%
  34. https://www.facebook.com/events/651463574878234
  35.  
  36. Join the Anti-War Committee – Chicago, the Syrian American Forum, and ANSWER Coalition - Chicago, to respond to President Obama’s call for war on Syria, and to condemn war profiteers like Boeing.
  37.  
  38. Whatever President Obama says on Tuesday, we know what our response will be: No War on Syria.
  39.  
  40. War for the 1%
  41.  
  42. Who will benefit from this war? Weapons manufacturers like Raytheon, which makes the Tomahawk missiles. The value of their stock has soared in recent weeks, because the war could include 200 to 400 of these cruise missiles.
  43.  
  44. Chicago has its own war profiteer: Boeing Company. The White House is planning to use Boeing's long range bombers to attack Syria. Those bombers will be loaded with "smart bombs," made by Boeing as well.
  45.  
  46. Don’t Be Fooled Again
  47.  
  48. John Kerry said last week that Saudi Arabia will pick up the tab for the U.S. war. His message to the U.S. taxpayers was that they won't have to pay for this war.
  49.  
  50. We know a politician is lying when his lips move.
  51.  
  52. U.S. military expenses are currently at $653 billion yearly. More than that, war takes life. The U.S. war in Iraq cost over 1,000,000 Iraqi dead, plus the 4,500 U.S. troops who died.
  53.  
  54. The people of this country have paid enough for war already. We need money for jobs, healthcare and education, not war.
  55.  
  56. Say no to U.S. war for the 1%
  57. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________

  59. FRIDAY 9/13 - 5:30PM - The Bean in Millennium Park
  60. Make Some Noise For Syria
  61. https://www.facebook.com/events/157925691072438
  62.  
  63. Reject The False Choice Of Military 'Intervention' In Syria
  64.  
  65. Bring pots, pans, & make some noise to let the world know we want NO WAR WITH SYRIA.
  66.  
  67. The goals of the US military do not include the empowerment of the Syrian people. We need look no further than Vietnam, Iraq, or Afghanistan to see that military action brings neither justice nor independence. The warmongers flooding congress with cash are merely concerned with securing US hegemony in the Middle East and expanding US influence across the globe.
  68.  
  69. The solutions to the problems caused by the military apparatus in one state will not be found within the military apparatus of another state. Our government, after having spawned numerous military coups in Syria since WW2, supported Assad's brutal regime while he tortured prisoners from the 'War on Terror.'
  70.  
  71. The foreign policy of the US has long been determined by and for a select few. Now is the time to reject US imperialism.
  72.  
  73. See you in the streets.
  74.  
  75. Organized by Occupy Chicago
