Edited on Sat Nov-01-03 01:09 AM by Tinoire
Too bad there are TONS of those fanatics out there who woke up to the horrors of unjust imperialistic wars before it was... fashionable to do so.

Protest NATO Supreme Commander General Wesley Clark! Stop the US-backed War Against the Palestinian People!

Tuesday, Oct. 17, 2000, 6:30 pm
Berkeley Community Theater
1930 Allston Way, Berkeley (@ MLK)
(Part of International Days of Protest to Abolish NATO -- Oct. 17-28)

On October 17, Gen. Wesley Clark will be appearing at Berkeley's Community Theater. It is an outrage that this war criminal is speaking here!

Clark resided over NATO's murderous 1999 war against the people of Yugoslavia. US Generals directing NATO admit to specifically targetting civilians.

During the war on Yugoslavia, Clark proposed bombing oil pipelines in Hungary, as well as Russian ships in the vicinity. During his stand- off between NATO and the Russian troops, Clark attempted to have British paratroopers storm the Pristina airport. He was ultimately responsible for the use of such outlawed weaponry as cluster bombs.

Clark was trained for his role at the US War College and began his killing career as an officer in Vietnam. As chief of the US Souther Command in Panama, he was in charge of US intervention in Latin America.

Gen. Wesley Clark is one of the leaders of the US military industrial complex that carried out a war of aggression against the Yugoslav people in 1999 and has built up the Israeil arsenal used to occupy and repress the Palestinian people, now leading to a virtual declaration of war on Palestine.

Join in a protest to expose Clark as a war criminal and demand:

Abolish NATO! Stop the Occupation of Kosovo! US/NATO Out of Yugoslavia! Stop the Occupation of Kosovo! US out of the Middle East! End the Bombing and Sanctions of Iraq! Justice for the Palestinian People! Stop the Pentagon's Plan Colombia! US Troops OUT!

Colombia has become the 3rd largest recipient of US military aid in the world. US Special Forces troops are already on the ground in Colombia, involved in combat with popular insurgencies. Colombia's government uses paramilitary death squads as a matter of counter- insurgency policy.

The US has recently designated a massive $7.5 billion aid program called "Plan Colombia." They attempt to justify this dramatic escalation in intervetion under the guise of a phony "War on Drugs."
