{IMAGE1}Join us to march for peace! Wear black. Help carry one of our coffins representing the US military deaths and the death of tens of thousands of Iraqi people. Wednesday May 26, 5pm, State House grounds. March begins at 6pm. Memorial service at Veteran's park at 6:30pm.

The occupation of Iraq is getting uglier everyday. Last month more American soldiers died than in any other month of the war. Thousands of Iraqis were killed and wounded. Over 10,000 Iraqis are imprisoned by our military, many under horrible conditions. The vast majority of Iraqis say they want the occupation to end immediately. More and more Americans are also coming to this conclusion. There were no weapons of mass destruction and the Iraqis don't want us. It's time to bring the troops home. It's time to end the occupation now.

This is also the time re-invigerate our peace movement, to make into a reality what the entire world knows is right. Our voice is crucial to ending this occupation.

Together we will end this occupation.
