Protest Deployment of War Ships to Iran

Stop the War on Iran


before it starts


Sunday, Oct. 1, Noon


Norfolk Naval Base


Gate 5 -

across from the Pass Office on Hampton Blvd.


An early deployment of the Eisenhower Strike Group will depart Norfolk Tuesday, Oct 3rd.

The Strike Group is scheduled to arrive off the coast of Iran on or about October 21.

The nuclear aircraft carrier has been in the Norfolk port for several years refurbishing and was not scheduled to depart for at least another month.

Demand an immediate end to Washington’s campaign of sanctions, hostility, and falsehood against the people of Iran.

Oppose any new U.S. aggression against Iran.

Demand money for human needs, not endless war.

Endorsers:

Hampton Roads Peace and Justice Coalition 470-9797

Tidewater Peace Alliance - Norfolk Catholic Worker - Gaia Circle - Norfolk Food not Bombs - The Defenders fro Freedom, Justice and Equality

This is a great instance of the power of local indymedia....Mosquito hears that reporters have been contacting local peace activists wondering how they "discovered" the Eisenhower departure date when "they" hadn't been able to obtain the information. Hmm....Buzz...Buzz
