Join us for an Emergency Conference on Saturday, December 4, at the Lang Center at New School University.

The election has made it clear that only the people can stop the war. The Bush Administration has launched a new phase of the war in Iraq, intending to brutally crush the resistance of the Iraqi people in time for the phony election in January. We must launch a new phase of the antiwar struggle. Now, more than ever, is the time for the antiwar movement to respond with urgency, unity, and determination.

Speakers will include representatives from various anti-war organizations and coalitions, labor leaders, youth organizers, veterans of the current war, and military families.

Join us on December 4, from 19 am to 6 pm for a strategic discussion

9:00 am - 10:00 am - Registration

10:00 am - 12:00 - 1st Session - Stop the Draft

We must begin mobilizing now to stop the draft. This session will include information on how the draft will work, how to resist the draft, and a discussion of how we can stop the draft before it starts.

12:30 pm - 2:30 pm - 2nd Session - Solidarity with Resistance Inside the Military

More and more young people in the military are taking a stand against an illegal and immoral war. It is imperative for the anti-war movement to support them.

Hear from members of the military who are speaking out and refusing to be a part of Bush’s colonial war and from organizers who are building a support network for resisters.

3:00 pm - 6:00 pm - 3rd Session - Strategies for Stopping the War

Join anti-war activists, union leaders, and youth organizers for a strategic discussion of the next steps for the anti-war movement.

Help plan for renewed resistance against the Bush agenda of endless war and domestic repression.

This Conference is Part of Stop the War Week.

The People Judge Bush http://www.PeopleJudgeBush.org

The People of the world are rising up in response to the escalating Crimes of the Bush Administration. In Chile, where Bush was attending the APEC conference, he was greeted by 70,000 angry protesters in the streets, outraged over U.S. war crimes in Fallujah, where more than 800 civilians were killed by the recent assault on the city.

Antiwar activists in Chile also filed suit in criminal court, charging Bush with violations of the Geneva Convention and other International Laws. Bush was forced to ask the President of Chile for diplomatic immunity during his visit.

This shows the power of a people's movement. We must continue to mobilize here to stop this criminal war and hold Bush accountable.

At the very moment that the US military is sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire in Iraq, George W. Bush is elevating precisely those forces within the administration who were the most vigorous advocates, supporters, and defenders of the U.S. war crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Guantanamo: Condaleeza Rice, the new Secretary of State, was a advocate of pre-emptive strikes as the basis for the so-called Bush doctrine; Stephen J. Hadley, the new head of the National Security Council argued for the use of "mini nukes" against the people of Iraq; and the new Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales, wrote memos approving the use of torture and the illegal detention of prisoners in Guantanamo.

Furthermore, as the Bush Administration prepares for its second term, it is attempting to overshadow its crisis in Iraq and its failing economic policies by making new threats against Iran and North Korea.

It is one thing to put a right-wing government in place and another thing to carry out a right-wing political policy at home and abroad. The Bush Administration is facing an unwinnable war and a failing economy with rising deficits, a declining dollar, and disappearing jobs. Thirty-two years ago, Richard Nixon won the largest electoral vote in history, but less than 2 years later he was forced to resign rather than face impeachment.

The movement must demonstrate that it is not intimidated by the appointment of these criminals and their right-wing agenda. Building a mass movement to struggle against the war and occupation can change the entire political landscape and put Bush, Cheney, and the other members of this criminal administration on the defensive. It takes determination and initiative, but it can be done.

We have outlined an Action Plan to Stop the War below. We encourage you to endorse the action plan, to get involved, and to help with the enormous expenses involved.
