DESCRIPTION:Please join us at 16th & Broadway, in Sacramento, this Saturday, August 
 26th, from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm, to make the following demands for peace in 
 the Middle East:\n\n  1) that Israel immediately release all of the 
 democratically elected Palestinian representatives that the Israeli 
 military has kidnapped from Palestinian territory and is now holding in 
 Israeli prisons;\n  2) that all Israeli military personnel immediately get 
 out of Gaza and Lebanon, and that Israel stop its policy of aggression in 
 both regions;\n  3) that U.S. representatives stop their blanket support 
 for Israel and recognize that peace in the Middle East means a free 
 Palestine that includes the right of return; and \n  4) that all U.S. 
 military personnel immediately get out of Iraq and Afghanistan.\n\nFolks, 
 there is a real danger right now, because the U.S. and Israel are headed 
 down a path of EXPANSION, not reduction, of their collaborative military 
 goals in the Middle East.  It's quite clear that they now have their sights 
 on Iran.  If we don't start pushing back harder right now, we could very 
 easily soon find ourselves demanding an end to World War III.  
 Seriously.\n\nWhile our demonstrations alone certainly won't solve these 
 problems, they are a very important part of the effort.  They not only 
 create a forum for networking, but they also draw public attention to the 
 issues and convey messages generally withheld from corporate news 
 broadcasts.  On the other hand, sometimes our messages from the demos do 
 get local media coverage; and when that happens, we have a rare opportunity 
 to expose some truths to people who usually get distorted news.\n\nSo 
 please forward this to others and come out to 16th & Broadway this 
 Saturday, and bring your friends, banners, flags, signs, art and 
 instruments!  \n\nSponsors: \n\nNational Council of Arab Americans 
 (NCA)/Sacramento, \nMuslim Student Association West (MSA WEST), \nMuslim 
 Student Association UC Davis (MSA UCD), \nStephen & Virginia Pearcy,
