“The claims by the Obama administration and its supporters in Congress that what they are contemplating is a limited, surgical and symbolic military strike is simply but a lie” said Rick Rozoff, the manager of “Stop NATO” Network in an interview with Press TV.

SATURDAY, SEPT. 7 @ 12 NOON
ASSEMBLE AT THE WHITE HOUSE
MARCH TO THE CAPITOL
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Time is of the essence. We have been in the streets all over the country. The opposition to a new war is everywhere. This forced the administration to step back from imminent bombings.
But the danger also exists for an even larger war against Syria as Obama seeks to make a deal with right-wing hawks like John McCain, Lindsey Graham and others.
Now is the time for the people to step up pressure on Congress and demand that they vote NO to any resolution authorizing a military attack on Syria.
On Saturday, September 7, people are descending on Washington, D.C., for a march from the White House to Congress for a major demonstration as Congress returns to Washington, D.C., and prepares to vote. This demonstration is initiated by a broad ad hoc coalition called the Vote No War Against Syria Coalition. If you or your organization would like to be an endorser of the Sept. 7 demonstration, email votenowaronsyria@yahoo.com.
Those who can will stay over in Washington for daily demonstrations, and to maintain a round-the-clock visible anti-war presence at the U.S. Capitol building beginning Saturday, September 7 and continuing daily as Congress meets to take up and vote on the resolution.

A collective fierce voice demanding, “Not another war” is resounding across the country and around the world. Now is the moment to make our voices heard.
Join in to stop the attack on Syria. The coming days provide the last chance to mobilize popular resistance to the military strike. The people fear both the political and economic consequences of another costly war. Millions believe the pretext for the war is another Big Lie like the lies used before the Vietnam, Iraq and Libya wars. We need to join together to loudly oppose this new war.

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, IN FRONT OF THE WHITE HOUSE
with Syrian American Forum from 10 to 12. Marching to Congress – Upper Senate Park
On the 15th anniversary of the arrest of the Cuban Five, the Hero of the Republic of Cuba Rene Gonzalez, has asked his people to saturate the island with yellow ribbons. “My desire is that on September 12 yellow ribbons will appear in trees, on balconies, on people’s arms, on their pets or however they want to display it. That way this expression will make it impossible for visitors and the foreign media to ignore the fact that the Cuban people are still waiting for four of their sons who are imprisoned in the United States.”
