On the 9th Anniversary of the Afghanistan War Shut Down the War Machine!
Join Veterans, Anti-War Activists, Students & Others at a Protest Action

U.S./NATO Out of Afghanistan NOW!
Jobs & Education—Not War & Occupation!
Military Recruiters Out of Our Communities!

Wednesday, Oct. 6, 4 pm
Vets say resist - Endorse the Oct. 6 Protest Action in Hollywood.

Meet at the Hollywood Military Recruitment Center

The ANSWER Coalition calls on all progressive people to take a stand on the 9th anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan. On Oct. 6, veterans, anti-war activists, students, military families, and working people will converge on the Hollywood Military Recruitment Center to protest and take action.

We will be at the Military Recruitment Center to demand an immediate end to the U.S./NATO war on Afghanistan. We will also demand an end to the U.S. military preying on working-class youth, especially youth of color. Young people are struggling to get access to a college education, jobs, and benefits, yet the war machine continues to send them to kill and die in this criminal war. Military recruiters must get out of our communities!

The war in Afghanistan, like the war in Iraq, is a racist, colonial war to secure massive profits for a handful of bankers and corporate owners. It is also a war that the Pentagon will allow to drag on endlessly if we don't continue to fight back. Click here to Endorse the Oct. 6 Protest Action in Hollywood.

Say 'NO' to Endless War

The new book, "Obama's Wars" by journalist Bob Woodward reveals the true strategy of the Pentagon. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates is quoted as saying: "We're not leaving Afghanistan prematurely. In fact, we're not ever leaving at all."

Likewise, General David Petraeus is quoted as saying: "I don't think you win this war. I think you keep fighting. You have to stay after it. This is the kind of fight we're in for the rest of our lives and probably our kids' lives."

The Pentagon generals and Washington politicians are planning on endlessly colonizing Afghanistan, killing civilians, sending U.S. troops to die, and squandering our tax dollars on this criminal war.

Every day of this war is a catastrophe first and foremost for the people of Afghanistan. Every day of this war is also a catastrophe for many U.S. troops. The troops being killed in Afghanistan are young people who had no access to a college education, working people put out of a job in the unemployment crisis, and parents who need health care and housing.

Join us at the Hollywood Military Recruitment Center to say "no" to imperialist war.

We demand:

* U.S./NATO out of Afghanistan NOW!
* Bring all the troops home NOW!
* End all colonial occupations: Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine and everywhere!
* Fund jobs, housing, health care and education—NOT war!
* Fight racism, Islamophobia, anti-immigrant attacks and all forms of bigotry!
* Military recruiters out of our schools and communities!
