DESCRIPTION:Stop Torture ~ Abolish the Torture Flights!\n\nMarch, Picket, and Press 
 Conference at Jeppesen Headquarters\nIraq Moratorium – Monthly Action to 
 Stop the War\n\nJeppesen is a San Jose company that profits from illegal 
 kidnappings and torture. The company handles the logistics for the CIA's 
 so-called "extraordinary rendition" flights – torture flights.\n\n11:40 
 a.m. - March from San Jose train station to Jeppesen HQ.\nTake Caltrain 
 #138. March is just over half a mile. \n\n12:00 noon - Press conference and 
 informational picket outside Jeppesen HQ\n225 W. Santa Clara St. #1600, San 
 Jose\n\nThis month's Iraq Moratorium action marks the one-year anniversary 
 of the revelation of Jeppesen's role in the CIA's torture flights ("The 
 CIA's Travel Agent," The New Yorker, 10/30/06). It also marks the one-year 
 anniversary of the first protests against Jeppesen demanding that it cut 
 ties to the CIA and torture flights. Jeppesen, a Boeing subsidiary, has 
 refused to respond. We will tell Jeppesen: "We don't want torturers in our 
 community! Stop working for the CIA!"\n\nTake the Anti-Torture Train: 
 Protesters coming from the Peninsula can take Caltrain #138, which arrives 
 in San Jose at 11:38 a.m. (Get on at the first car.) We will leaflet 
 Caltrain passengers to educate them about U.S. torture policy, the CIA's 
 "extraordinary rendition" of suspects to other countries for abusive 
 interrogation, and efforts in Congress to end this abhorrent practice of 
 the Bush administration, including HR 1352, the Torture Outsourcing 
 Prevention Act.\n\nThis event is part of the Iraq Moratorium project, an 
 escalating monthly series of actions demanding an end to the war.  Starting 
 on Friday, September 21 and on the third Friday of every month thereafter, 
 people across the U.S. will take the time to show our President and 
 Congress that our troops must be brought home, now!  \n\nSponsored by:
