This is an OLD list
We compiled this list when the US and Brittan were gearing up for another round of bombing of Iraq in 1998. We will be compiling a list of day after protests that are specifically organized for this latest war against Afganistan. Try and confirm the time and location of the protest. These day after protests tend to be in the same place so it's likely that the information on this page is still valid. For now please email us information on your day after protests.

SACRAMENTO, CA Nov. 12, 1998 Sacramento, California, "Don't Bomb Iraq" Rally A coalition of peace and justice activists will gather at 4:30 PM on Friday, Nov. 13, at 16th and J streets in Sacramento, lighting candles and carrying signs to protest U.S. threats to bomb Iraq. Decrying the vigilante mentality of the U.S., Mario Galvan, president of Sacramento-Yolo Peace Action, says, "U.S. attacks are a violation of international law, no matter how the government tries to justify the bombings as enforcement of U.N. resolutions. They would also be a violation of our own constitution, as this would clearly be an act of war, but without a declaration of war by Congress, as required by the U.S. constitution." "Besides," Galvan adds, "bombing would only hurt the Iraqi people, who are already suffering terribly because of the economic sanctions, without weakening Saddam Hussein. In fact, it would probably be counterproductive, rallying support for Hussein as a heroic martyr defending Arab interests against imperialist exploitation. At the same time, it will trigger hate for Americans; dropping bombs is not a good way to make friends." The activists have vowed to return to the same site in Sacramento to protest if the U.S. does carry out it's bomb threats. For more information, call Sacramento-Yolo Peace Action at (916) 448-7157 8.
