DESCRIPTION:TUESDAY JULY 14: Join World Can't Wait and others at the San Francisco 
 Federal Courthouse for a NOON RALLY AND SPEAK-OUT during a regular session 
 of the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.\nJay Bybee, the Torture Judge, 
 is a war criminal!\nImpeach - disbar - and prosecute Bybee for assisting 
 the "legalization" of torture!\nBybee, a key player on the Bush/Cheney 
 torture team, was rewarded for that service with a lifetime appointment to 
 the Ninth Circuit Court.\n\nWhy is Bybee enjoying a position of power as a 
 federal judge?  He should be in prison, awaiting trial for war crimes and 
 crimes against humanity!  Bybee flaunted all legality and morality with his 
 sinister work: he codified specific torture tactics to be used on captured 
 human beings.  His part in the Bush regime's criminal enterprise also 
 included his granting immunity to high Bush administration officials 
 against both civil and criminal suits.\n\nSee Bybee's torture credentials 
 and news about efforts to bring him to justice.  Search for "Bybee" at:\n[ 
 www.warcriminalswatch.org ]\n\nBybee is now greeted by courthouse protests 
 whenever the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals meets, whether Bybee is on duty 
 that day or not.  As long as a Torture Judge sits on the bench of the Ninth 
 Circuit Court, every decision this court reaches is tainted.  A court where 
 an internationally-exposed war criminal sits in judgment on anything or 
 anyone is a sham.\n\nWorld Can't Wait is calling one major public rally at 
 the courthouse every week that the court is in session, starting Tuesday 
 July 14 (watch this email for future dates).  We will be there speaking out 
 about the torture that Judge Bybee helped create.  Everyone going into the 
 courthouse will know they're in the vicinity of a dangerous 
 criminal.\n\nAnd because the court's schedule provides many other days - 
 many other protests are sure to flower, too.\n\nLet Bybee know: people of 
 conscience insist on speaking up and speaking out, and that his crimes will 
 be known everywhere he goes.\n\nLet the other judges who accept a torturer 
 as a colleague see orange jumpsuits everywhere they go.\n\nAnd let the 
 courthouse press know that there is a growing movement of people living in 
 this country who will not allow torture judges, torture professors, torture 
 lawyers, torture ex-presidents and vice-presidents, et al to waltz back 
 into comfortable civilian lives as if their hands aren't covered in 
 blood.\n\nTorture is a war crime, and a crime against humanity.  Those who 
 have carried out great crimes under cover of high office must be brought to 
 justice.\n\nIf you refuse to accept the U.S. Torture State - constructed 
 under Bush/Cheney and now continuing under Obama - and you won't stand for 
 torture in your name . . . \n\nIf you do not think that the lives and 
 purported "safety" of Americans is more valuable than the lives of others - 
 and you won't stand for torture in our names . . . \n\nIf you look at Bybee 
 and all the other members of the Torture Team and you see war criminals who 
 have brutally destroyed the lives of thousands - the detainees who've been 
 disappeared, renditioned, tortured, and murdered - and you insist that war 
 criminals must face justice so that future generations know such crimes 
 should never again be allowed in anyone's names . . . \n\nAnd if you know 
 that many Americans still do not really know or understand what the torture 
 state has done in their names - and you're willing to go public with the 
 truth, to resist the lies with your actions, to help open their eyes and 
 shake their consciences awake . . .\n\nBe at the San Francisco Federal 
 Courthouse (at 7th & Mission Streets) this Tuesday at noon.\n\nWorld Can't 
 Wait and other anti-torture groups and people who refuse to accept the 
 torture state will be there - will you?\n
