EMERGENCY MOBILIZATION TO STOP THE US WAR MACHINE IN THE PHILIPPINES!
JUSTICE NOT WAR!

THIS SUNDAY, FEB. 3RD, 12:30 PM

Protest Philippine President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, avid supporter of
U.S Military Intervention in the Philippines, the next target of
the supposed "War on Terrorism"

SUNDAY, FEB. 3RD, 12:30 PM at the
The Peninsula Hotel
108 E. Superior (Superior is 1 block south of Chicago Ave, between
Rush St. and Michigan Ave.)

Please come out and show your opposition to U.S. military intervention
and the extension of the "War on Terrorism" in the Philippines.

Philippine president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo (GMA) will be in Chicago
this Sunday atending a "business meeting". GMA has allowed 660 U.S.
troops and 600 U.S military advisors in collaboration with the
Philippine
Armed Forces to engage in "six months to one year" joint military
operations against live targets.

This direct U.S miltary intervention undermines Philippine sovereignty
and completely disregards the Philippine constitution which prohibits
"foreign military troops and equipment" on Philippine soil, unless
covered by a treaty to be concurred in by the Senate.
Direct U.S miltary intervention upon Philippine sovereignty is
unprecedented, if not fantastic, for it might trigger a larger,
protracted war on all fronts.

Will the Philippines be another Vietnam?

*This event is part of coordinated world-wide protests against US
Military Intervention in the Philippines and marking the 103rd
Anniversary of the Filipino-American War where 1/6 of the population of
Luzon perished on the first day of battle.

Join us this Sunday, 12:30 p.m. at 108 E.Superior in opposition to U.S.
military intevention in the Philippines!

Sponsored by the Philippine Solidarity Committee (PSC) and the League
of
Filipino Students (LFS)
