National Press Conference in Washington, DC to Announce August 12 March
There continues to be an amazing response to the appeal to support the Aug. 12 National Emergency March on Washington, but we still need your help to make it a success. The demonstration offers the best opportunity to show the opposition by the people of the United States to the Bush administration's partnership with the Israeli government in waging war against the people of Palestine and Lebanon.
Below is a copy of a media alert for a national press conference that will take place Thursday, July 27, at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. We will circulate copies of media coverage in the coming days.
We appeal to everyone who believes in justice to support the August 12th National March on Washington. Come to Washington, volunteer and participate. If you are unable to come, but would like to help subsidize the cost of bus transportation so that others can come, you can do so by making an urgently needed donation today. Click here to donate.
As we mentioned in yesterday's email communication, we have to pay all of our bills now, including buses, stage, sound, port a johns, flyers, posters, placards, and other associated expenses.

Press Conference July 27 Washington DC Press Conference Update: Ramsey Clark to Speak, Thurs., July 27, 1pm Thursday, July 27th 1:00 pm Murrow Room of the National Press Club 529 14th St. NW, 13th Floor
A coalition of Arab-American and U.S. peace groups will be holding a press conference on Thursday, July 27, to announce plans for a "massive National Emergency March on Washington DC on Saturday, August 12 to protest the U.S.-Israeli war against the people of Palestine and Lebanon."
"Buses and car caravans are being organized to bring people to Washington DC on August 12 from cities and towns throughout the United States," stated Brian Becker, National Coordinator of the ANSWER Coalition. The August 12 National March on Washington D.C. is initiated by ANSWER Coalition, National Council of Arab-Americans, and the Muslim American Society, Freedom Foundation.
The August 12 event will be the largest mobilization to date within the United States to oppose the latest U.S.-Israeli war drive against Lebanon and Gaza, according to the initiating organizations.
The press conference will discuss plans for August 12, the situation regarding rally and march permits, and outline a nationwide campaign to mobilize the U.S. antiwar movement, the Arab-American and Muslim community, and all people of conscience to oppose what the organizers call, "the criminal war that has already killed hundreds of civilians and displaced hundreds of thousands of people from their home.”
The press conference will also include direct eyewitness testimony from Dr. Mounzer Sleiman who has just returned from war-torn Lebanon. Dr. Sleiman is an independent analyst on national security affairs who appears frequently as a commentator on a number of Arab TV networks and radio outlets.
Speakers will include: -Ramsey Clark, former U.S. Attorney General -Dr. Mounzer Sleiman, National Council of Arab Americans, Independent Military and Political Analyst who just returned from Lebanon -Mara Verheyden-Hilliard, Co-Founder Partnership for Civil Justice -Mahdi Bray, Director, Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation -Peta Lindsay, Howard University student, Youth and Student ANSWER Coalition -Brian Becker, National Coordinator, ANSWER Coalition -Rev. Graylan Hagler, Senior Pastor, Plymouth Congregational Church

I wonder if they check this POS 's luggage for Viagra when he slimes into this Country
Act Now to Stop Whiners and End Retardation ?
The fact that we're not involved must be ignored because we need to bash both the US and Israel. Good work, traitors.
Right, they would say we are involved because of our aid to Israel, but they make no mention of Iran or Hezbollah. AgeofHooper.com has video of a recent rally in DC...the moonbat chants are ridiculous.
IBTZ?
Negative. I want to know what is said at this "conference". I plan to attend the Aug. 12 march to record it for my website. I am hoping to draw this to the attention of DC Freeps, and maybe get the scoop.
No Code Pink? Oh right, their fatasses are still fasting.
The one upside to Islamanazi domination....
They would immediately kill the leftist assholes in Code Pink, A.N.S.W.E.R., GLAD, etc, etc......
Semper Fi
Could the rhetoric get any more ridiculous? If the IDF were to 'wage war against the people of Palestine and Lebanon', the West Bank, Gaza and southern Lebanon would have been utterly depopulated by now.
I never hear the moonbat Democrats decrying the slaughter of innocent Jews in Israel, either. I can only conclude that Jewish lives aren't worth very much to them.
***Ramsey Clark to speak in DC***
Does anyone give a rip?
The U.S. is part of a war drive? We committed troops???
Ramsey Clark to speak in DC...
Who will hold Saddams hand and whisper sweet nothings in his ear while he is in DC ?
Aye. They say stuff like this, as well:
"Having learned the lesson of Iraq, we recognize that Bush and the Israeli government are carrying out a long planned and premeditated war under a false pretext. The targeted peoples are portrayed in carefully crafted war propaganda as the “aggressors” rather than the victims of aggression.
The real purpose of the war is closely linked to the aggression against Iraq. The Bush administration, and its backers in Congress, is seeking to “reorganize” the oil-rich Middle East as an outpost of the new American Empire. Toppling the government of Iraq, destroying the Palestinian National Resistance, establishing U.S. puppet regimes in Lebanon, Syria and Iran are the unstated but real objectives of Bush’s “endless war” scenario in the Middle East."
Scary thing is, I think many of them truly believe this crap...they are completely paranoid.

That's one helluva silver lining. Awful tempting.. ;-)
And if Bush was half the monster that they claim him to be, they'd all be either dead or in Gulags.
Everybody's got to have a hobby, I guess.
About time some patriots put together an appropriate greeting for these folks.
So Ramsey is officially endorsing Hezbollah and Hamas. Gee, that's really wonderful.
Maybe we could put some mangles and caltrops out on the roads in their line of travel.
