DESCRIPTION:*No Nukes, No Wars* Support Indigenous Rights\n\n... No profiteers! Support 
 Indigenous Rights!\n\nCeremony and Nonviolent Action at Bechtel Corporate 
 Headquarters in San Francisco.\n\nThe anniversary of the U.S. bombing of 
 Nagasaki, August 9, is also the UN declared International Day of the 
 World’s Indigenous Peoples. Since their earliest stages, nuclear weapons 
 and the people who profit from them have caused untold suffering to 
 indigenous peoples around the world.\n\nJoin us for a morning of protest 
 and a ceremony led by Western Shoshone spiritual leader Corbin Harney at 
 Bechtel’s Corporate Headquarters. (Western Shoshone tribal lands include 
 the Nevada Test Site & the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste 
 suppository).\n\nBechtel is one of the top profiteers of the war in Iraq, 
 manages nearly every aspect of the nuclear weapons cycle, and is known by 
 communities worldwide for its habitual violations of indigenous and human 
 rights.\n\nPlease come and act with us to voice our support for the 
 sovereignty and dignity of indigenous peoples and call for an end to 
 nuclear weapons and 
 war!\n\n_______________________________________________\n\n*WHY 
 NOW?*\n\nThe culture of fear that surrounds nuclear weapons and even their 
 suspected presence creates war and destruction. With respect to Iran 
 enriching uranium, President Bush has continually stated that, "All options 
 are on the table."\n\nThe paranoia over the possibility that Iran could 
 develop a nuclear weapon a decade from now should be turned inward. The 
 U.S. is even now designing new nuclear weapons in direct violation of the 
 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty while hypocritically pushing for another 
 illegal war and possible nuclear strike against a sovereign nation.\n\nOn 
 August 9th, we will take our voices to the people who design and profit 
 from human suffering. We demand an end\nto U.S. nuclear weapons 
 development, production and testing. We demand an end to wars of empire and 
 an end to nuclear excuses for war.\n\nIn Iraq, they never found nuclear or 
 other weapons of mass destruction, yet the daily reality of death and 
 destruction rages on, sparked by the Bush administration's invasion and 
 fueled by the ongoing U.S. military occupation.\n\nA majority of people in 
 this nation now oppose the war, but the White House and most members of 
 Congress are resisting the only solution to the crisis: bring the troops 
 home immediately. We will send our message loud and clear to 
 decision-makers and the public at large:\n\nEnd the war in Iraq, No war 
 with Iran or North Korea, End the threat of nuclear annihilation!\n\nFor
