Jan 18: US Again Bomb Iraq, More US Troops, Chicago Passed antiwar Resolution!
URL: http://www.peacenowar.net/Iraq/News/Jan%2018%2003--News.htm
Summary (from SF IMC):
As the United States amasses troops in the Middle East, civilian dissent against the imminent attack on Iraq is threatening to boil over. On 1/11 the streets of Los Angeles filled with more than 20,000 people in the biggest anti-war demonstraton the City of Angels has seen since Vietnam. People also converged in Mountain View, Chicago, and Twin Cities over the weekend.
San Francisco is gearing up for its own massive mobilization to take place on January 18 to correspond with a huge demo planned for Washington D.C. Whatever your affiliation or even if you don't have one, now is the time to speak up, organize, and take part in the resistance.
Opposition to Bush's war on the poor in this country, as well as, on the rest of the globe is growing. Massive demonstrations and walkouts are planned for the day the bombs "officially" start falling. Human shield missions are also getting underway, with dozens of people going to strategic locations throughout Iraq.

Look at your life. How do YOU use energy? What are the products you buy made out of? Are they trucked/shipped & flown from far reaches of the world, rather than locally produced? Where does your food come from? Do you shop at dollar stores? Think about this, where do you suppose these low cost products come from? Are they shipped in from thousands of miles away, or made locally?
If you REALLY want to protest the war, do it with your wallet! Look at what you buy, what it is made out of and how far it was shipped to get to you. Imagine if everyone STOPPED JUMPING IN OUR CARS to go protest the war, and instead spent that time & energy writting well thought out letters and running for local political offices, taking control of our government by taking RESPONSIBILITY for OUR part in it.
Also, consider taking the train instead of flying or driving. This uses much less energy!
If all this is just too much for you today, relax, in due course we will be doing it anyway. Or maybe we can hold out and let our children deal with it.
