War Criminal Petraeus in Town July 9!

Date:
Thursday, July 09, 2009
Time:
4:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Event Type:
Other
Organizer/Author:
World Cant Wait
Location Details:
Marines Memorial Theater
609 Sutter Street, 2nd floor, San Francisco
Event registration 4:45, Petraeus lectures at 5:30 followed by a reception [NOTE: sponsors' websites have said "SOLD OUT" since event was first posted]

Join World Can't Wait, A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, Code Pink, and many others -- rally outside the Marines Memorial Theater and make this a War Criminal-Free Zone!

Why is Petraeus being flown in for guest lectures and wine receptions like some honored public intellectual? This general who leads U.S. military operations in 20 countries -- the entire Middle East and Central Asia theater -- is nothing but a war criminal.

Why do the mainstream media "reporting" on Afghanistan only cover the deaths of Americans -- the troops taking part in occupation, torture and mass murder -- and cover UP the deaths of the Afghan people they are assaulting? And Obama has no intention of scaling this "good war" down any time soon.

General Petraeus has blood on his hands. Yet the more the government's lies and double-talking rationalizations get over on people in this country, fooling us into accepting this expanding "war OF terror" as legitimate and justified - the more that blood spreads, and stains everything we touch.

Be part of bringing forward the kind of resistance needed to stop this, now!
