Protest in Solidarity with the People of Iraq
Friday February 25, 2011 2:30pm
Ferry Building, The Embarcadero & Market St
San Francisco, CA 94111

Join CODEPINK for a peaceful presence outside San Francisco's historical Ferry Building as we stand in solidarity with the people of Iraq in their struggle against the corrupt Maliki government and call for a better quality of life.

The US war/occupation of Iraq has lasted 8 years, cost almost $800 billion, killed over 4400 US soldiers and marines and over 1 million Iraqis, wrecked the infrastructure and environment of Iraq and caused immense suffering and a huge refugee problem in the area.

End the US occupation of Iraq! Bring our troops, Military Contractors and War $$ Home! Hold the War Criminals Accountable!

Here's a heart-breaking article about Baghdad:
