 thousands of courageous men and women GI’s who have in many different 
 ways followed the their conscience, upholding international law, taking a 
 principled stand against unjust, illegal war and occupation\nand stood up 
 for their rights. Widespread public support and pressure will help create 
 true support for courageous troops facing isolation and repression, and 
 help protect their civil liberties and human rights. We call for the  
 following: 1) Support for War Objectors 2) Protect the Right to 
 Conscientious Objection 3) Protect the Liberties & Human Rights of GI's 4) 
 Sanctuary for War Objectors.\n\nYour participation in these days of 
 action—and beyond-- is crucial to realizing these goals: together, we do 
 have the power to end this war and prevent the next one. As the antiwar 
 movement builds its support for these brave people and their important 
 actions, we hope more will take a stand if we show them they won't be 
 alone.\n\nSponsored by: Courage to Resist, Watada Support Group (San
