Hi CodePINKgainesville,
   Below is Pierce Butler's email about PEACE EVENTS IN GAINESVILLE this Memorial
Weekend.  Hope you SHOW UP! CodePINK will be setting up a table at 4 a.m. at the
Westside Park and serving coffee, PINK lemonade, and have some chairs for people
to take a little break.  I've volunteered to help put the gravestones in the
rows so I hope to see you out there and I hope you can show up!!
  Your pal for peace,
Jacque

Hi Pinks,
   Forwarding Pierce's notes from yesterday's Peace Forum meeting.  I cancelled
out at the last minute and did not attend, but, lo and behold, the outside of my
mobile home is almost finished painted now - whew! what a job.  Please mark your
calendar for the events mentioned below and hope you can show up!
   I plan to attend the Melrose sign-waving tomorrow between 5 and 6 p.m.  Can
you make it?  One of the most important things you can do for peace is SHOW UP
for peace events whenever you can.  Thanks for all you do for peace....
Your pink pal,
jacque

Greetings All:

Our NEW SCHEDULE is from 4:00pm to 6:30pm, every 1st and 3rd Tuesday at
Archer Rd. and 34th St., every 2nd and 4th Tuesday at Univ. Av. and 13th St.

  The tide has turned in our favor. Cindy Sheehan's moral authority in
galvanizing antiwar sentiments from all walks of life is testimonial to this
fact. The Bushites' criminal callousness in the handling of hurricane
Katrina before and after its landing has further opened the eyes of millions
of folks. Opinion poll after opinion poll have shown overwhelming majority
of the American people wanted troops out of Iraq NOW, yet Bushites and their
cohorts persist in carrying on with their immoral and illegal war.

Recent revelations on the Bushites' egregious disregard for the rule of law
manifested in, to name just a few, illegal spying, kidnapping, authorization
for torture, Abramoff scandal, etc. has only added insult to injury. Further
more, according to a report by Seymour Hersh, these depraved minds are
moving forward with a mad plan for a nuclear attack on Iran.

Also the Bush regime not only pays the bills for the Israeli war machine,
but also gives it the green light to intensify its war on the Palestinians
and Lebanese, rushes an emergency supply of fuel and precision-guided bombs
to enhance the Israeli killing and wrecking spree, while at the same time
blocks all international peace initiatives. And it is using the
Israeli-created humanitarian crisis as a dress rehearsal and a pretext for
attacks on Syria and Iran.

As the approval rating of the Bush regime plummets, its key figures are
stepping up their efforts in fear- and hate-mongering, pressuring Congress
to retroactively legalize torture, warrantless wiretapping and making
changes to War Crimes Act to retroactively protect regime elements from war
crimes prosecution.


With the passage of the Military Commissions Act of 2006, which permits
warrantless incarceration and torture of suspected terrorists, an American
police state is fast taking shape. As if the Bush regime has not usurped
sufficient dictatorial power, Frank Morales pointed out that "Public Law
109-364, or the "John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007" (H.R.5122),
which was signed by the commander in chief on October 17th, 2006, in a
private Oval Office ceremony, allows the President to declare a "public
emergency" and station troops anywhere in America and take control of
state-based National Guard units without the consent of the governor or
local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder.""

The Bush regime's condemnation of North Korea stinks of cant and hypocrisy.
All that the North Korea wanted from the US is a peace/nonaggresion treaty,
instead the Bush regime unilaterally abrogated the Agreed Framework
agreement between the Clinton administration and North Korea, recklessly
threatens North Korea by calling it part of the Axis-of-evil, etc. Thus
forcing North Korea to accelerate its development of a nuclear deterrence
capability while maintaining its willingness to negotiate with the US and
making Korea peninsula a nuclear weapons free zone.

According to the October 11th Lancet Journal Report: Bush's illegal and
immoral invasion and occupation of Iraq has caused 655,000 excess Iraqi
deaths over and above the base line annual mortality due to 12 years of
sanctions. We are not even talking about the number of Iraqis injured,
maimed, become sick due to lack of medicine or health care provider, with
broken up families, forced to flee their homes and country, etc.

In this mid-term election the electorates have delivered a resounding
rejection of the Bush agenda. Although the Dems who took over the leadership
of both chambers of Congress have wasted no time to dampen expectations.
However, more favorable political space have been opened up to restore the
Bill of Rights, roll back the police state and militarism, dump the Military
Commissions Act, repeal the Patriot Act, end the illegal and immoral
occupations, bring the troops home to save Iraqi, Afghani and American lives
as well as the environment, etc.

Just as Bush used the phony excuse of "fighting terrorism" to invade and
occupy Iraq, he is using the same excuse to justify support for the invasion
of Somalia by Ethiopia, as well as the killing of a large number of Somali
civilians by the US military. Contrary to heeding the voice of the people to
end the occupation and bring the troops home now, the Bush regime decided on
a troop surge to escalate the killing, aiming at turning sections of Baghdad
into another Fallujah to clear the way for the passage of the hydrocarbon
privatization laws by their Iraqi puppets. Simultaneously, this reckless
regime is intensifying its disinformation campaign on Iran to brainwash the
American people while heightening the military threat of imminent attack
against Iran.

Here's another ongoing outrage; the Bush regime is responding to the scandal
over the neglect of wounded troops with scapegoat, retaliation and cover-up
while continuing in sending more troops as executioner as well as cannon
fodder to wars of aggression and occupation based on lies and motivated by
war-profiteering, control of hydrocarbon resources and geo-strategic
advantage. And not just the Bush regime and the Repubs but also many Dems
are justifying support for these wars in the name of  "Support Our Troops".
I.e. "Support the Troops" is the reason why the troops have to be sent into
harms way to participate in wars of aggression and occupation. In other
words, the warmongers' twisted logic says if we don't send the troops into
harms way to participate in wars of aggression and occupation, then we are
not supporting our troops.

Join us tomorrow at 34th St. and Archer Rd. We are always in need of folks
to join us for any length of time between 4:00pm and 6:30pm. Bring your own
signs or use ours - we have lots of them.

Peace. Ku

Subject: Stop U.S. Weapons of Mass Destruction

Dear ellen, Last month, with your continuing efforts, Peace Action lobbied The House Energy and Water Appropriations Subcommittee to completely cut funding for Bombplex 2030 and the Reliable Replacement Warhead (RRW). But there is still work to be done. Tell Congress you oppose further funding for nuclear weaponry. We expect a full appropriations committee vote on the bill Wednesday, June 6th.  Find out if your Congressperson is on this vital committee - click here to contact them TODAY. The full House floor vote is expected on June 13th. The Bush administration is lobbying hard to fund development of these new nuclear weapons - tell your representative you won’t pay for more nuclear bombs. We need an unambiguous victory in the House to strengthen our hand with the Senators who expect to vote on funding by mid-June.  Peace Action and our allies are working put an end to the production of nuclear weapons in the U.S.   With your help we can continue to mobilize grass-roots efforts when the proposal hits the Senate floor.  Click here to help us prepare for the Senate. For the past 50 years Peace Action has been mobilizing the nation to fight for a more peaceful, nuclear free, world.   Your action today helps us continue our legacy of working toward a nuclear free world.  We’d like to extend our thanks to you for your continued support of our mission.

harms way to participate in wars of aggression and occupation. In other
words, the warmongers' twisted logic says if we don't send the troops into
harms way to participate in wars of aggression and occupation, then we are
not supporting our troops.

Join us tomorrow at 13th St. and Univ. Av. We are always in need of folks to
join us for any length of time between 4:00pm and 6:30pm. Bring your own
signs or use ours - we have lots of them.

Peace. Ku
