DESCRIPTION:Organizing Meeting for March 3 Protest Against War Criminal Netanyahu’s 
 Speech to Joint Session of Congress\nat Israeli Consulate, 456 Montgomery 
 St., San Francisco\n\nIsraeli prime minister and notorious war criminal 
 Binyamin Netanyahu will be addressing a joint session of Congress on 
 Tuesday, March 3. Netanyahu has presided over many massacres of 
 Palestinians, the latest in Gaza last summer that killed more than 2,100 
 women, men and children, wounded more than 10,000, and left hundreds of 
 thousands homeless. The massive theft of and settlement on Palestinian land 
 in the West Bank continues every day. Much of this death, destruction and 
 dispossession is paid for by our tax dollars, billions of which flow to 
 Israel every year. \n\nThe invitation to Netanyahu - made by House Speaker 
 John Boehner - is an outrage that should be protested and rejected by all 
 people who stand for justice. Many organizations will be joining together 
 in protest outside the Capitol Building in Washington DC on March 3.\n\nAn 
 organizing meeting for a parallel protest here in San Francisco will be 
 held on Tues., Feb. 10, 6:30 pm at the ANSWER Coalition office, 2969 
 Mission St..\n\nWhile Netanyahu, Boehner and the Democrats opposing this 
 particular trip all have their partisan motivations, there is a deeper and 
 more sinister agenda behind the invitation, namely the intensifying 
 campaign against Iran by powerful interests in U.S. ruling circles. 
 \n\nBoehner specifically invited the rabidly anti-Iranian Netanyahu to 
 lecture Congress on the so-called “danger” from Iran and in support of 
 imposing even tighter sanctions on that country. The aim is to derail the 
 negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program, which are at a critical stage. 
 \n\nIran has stated that additional sanctions would mean an end to the 
 negotiating process. Such an outcome could well lead to a new U.S. or 
 U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, something that Netanyahu as well as many in 
 Washington clearly desire.\n\nJoin us on March 3 to say: No to War Criminal 
 Netanyahu - No New War on Iran - End the Colonial Occupation of Palestine - 
 End U.S. Aid to Israel!\n
