In 2013, the US government attempted to launch an all out war on the people of Syria using a Sarin gas attack on civilians that was falsely attributed to the Assad government as later proven by UN investigation and independent journalists. At that time, the anti-imperialist movement stood up alongside Syrians in the US to shut down the war attempt!
Last night the US government, under the racist Trump administration, has launched a full scale bombing campaign aimed at the Syrian government and people.
We must act immediately to reject this war that is based on equally suspicious circumstances as those of 2013.
US military intervention has never improved the lives of anyone as seen in recent years in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Honduras, and beyond! No U.S. cruise missile has ever liberated oppressed people or brought so-called democracy! It is always the war profiteers who line their pockets while they close our schools and strip us of medical care! It is always the poor and working people of the U.S. sent to kill and be killed by other poor and working people at the whims of the millionaire's club in Congress, whether Democrat or Republican.
Join us in the streets to say:
U.S. Hands Off Syria!
Fight racism and xenophobia! Refugees are welcome here!
Money for jobs, schools, and housing - not war!
