UNITED EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN: This Week

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 19:
No Business as Usual!
No War on Iraq!
NATIONAL CALL TO ACTION

Tuesday, March 18:
Emergency Convergence in New York City

George W. Bush has promised to unleash an all-out war against Iraq, possibly as soon as Wednesday, March 19. We join with peace-loving people all over the world in challenging this 48 hour war ultimatum.
At this critical moment, we urge all people of conscience to oppose this illegal war of aggression by participating in the following actions:

1) Tuesday, March 18, 5 p.m. Emergency New York City convergence at Union Square

2) Wednesday, March 19: Walkout! No Business as Usual! Converge and demonstrate on the day of the Bush ultimatum.

*New York City, March 19: Converge at 12 noon at Union Square. March and converge at Times Square at 5 p.m.

*Washington DC, March 19: Converge at 12 noon on the north side of the White House and stay there all day until a march at 5 p.m.

*San Francisco, March 19: Gather at 5 p.m. at Powell and Market

*and at central locations in cities and towns around the country

3) Saturday, March 22: New York City march, 11:30 a.m. Assemble at Broadway, between 41st and 36th St.

If war has begun, there will also be a March 22 regional demo at the White House in Washington DC at 12 noon, San Francisco, Los Angeles and in other cities around the country.

If war is launched, no business as usual that day. Converge at 12 noon and into the night.
