If Camp OUT NOW won’t end the US military corporate empire, will you?
In 2005 Cindy Sheehan staked her tent in Crawford TX until President Bush would deign to meet with her; she didn't pack it up until she had launched an antiwar movement. From there Sheehan met with world leaders, challenged Nancy Pelosi at the polls, and made herself ubiquitous wherever antiwar was raged. This time Sheehan is laying siege to the White House and she's not going to let up until Obama calls off his dogs of war. Will it work? It should. 15374
Camp OUT NOW delayed for St Pats
PEACE OF THE ACTION and Cindy Sheehan had to delay their March 13 start by two days, to accommodate the Washington DC's St. Patrick's Day. Parade organizers objected to sharing the National Mall with an antiwar protest encampment. Deja vu? Camp OUT NOW will raise their tents on March 15 on the lawns between the White House and the Washington Monument, to protest America's ceaseless war-making. Sheehan and co will direct civil disruptions of DC activities and don't plan to strike the tents until troops -and drones- are OUT. Join them!
