 June 7th and Blow the Whistle on Drones!\n\nWe have individual placards 
 with the names of over 150 of the children who have been killed by US drone 
 attacks, and many other signs to share!**\n\nSince Barack Obama took 
 office, thousands of civilians have died as the innocent victims of US 
 drone attacks in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Somalia - well more more 
 than half of these have been children***\n\nare the lives of Arab children, 
 mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, grandfathers, grandmothers.... 
 expendable, not to be counted?****\n\nthe CIA, the Pentagon, and the 
 President would like the American people to think this is not happening, 
 but it is - it has been very clear since the beginning of the use of 
 weaponized drones in those countries that many more innocent people are 
 dying than "suspected terrorists" - yet the attacks go on each week under 
 the direction of the President, and the people continue to die\n\nPLEASE
