DESCRIPTION:Israeli 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\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
