Sacramento Area Peace Vigils on Thursday
Calling All Activists!
I greatly encourage people to attend the vigils honoring the thousands of U.S. servicemen and women and Iraqis that have died in the Bush junta's illegal war against the people of Iraq.

Thursday, September 9, 8 p.m. See local locations at end of message!
A painful milestone has been reached: 1,000 American servicemen and servicewomen have been killed as a result of our nation’s attack on Iraq. Another 7,000 young Americans have been wounded, and as many as 13,000 Iraqis have died as a result of America’s war. Without a plan to bring our troops safely home, more young men and women will have their lives ended in this tragic folly.
TrueMajority members joined with millions of others last year in trying to prevent this unnecessary war. Now it’s time to honor the victims of this failed policy and draw attention to the futility of this war in an effort to hasten its end.
The Win Without War coalition that sponsored last year’s historic candlelight vigil is organizing another vigil to honor the war dead in commemoration of the 1,000th American casualty. The vigil will take place THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, at 8:00 PM.
Across our nation, people will come together in public parks, at the steps of city halls, outside places of worship and at countless other community places to express our sorrow and to demand that our government level with us about how this killing will stop.
