(from the organizers announcement):
Peace Vigil and Rally: End the Endless Wars!
When: Wednesday, October 4, 2017, 5:15 pm to 6:15 pm
Where: Park Street Station • Tremont and Park Streets • Boston
NO TROOP ESCALATION; U.S. OUT OF AFGHANISTAN!
The U.S. began the “War on Terror” by attacking Afghanistan on October 6, 2001. Rather than ending terror, a War OF Terror was unleashed. It has cost thousands of US troops, tens of thousands of Afghan lives and 2.4 Trillion dollars!
President Trump is continuing the wars of the past decades and making unhinged threats towards Iran, North Korea, Venezuela and many other nations.
This has to stop!
What can you do?
Join us at a monthly vigil and rally on the most urgent issues of the endless wars.
Park Street. October 4, November 8 and December 6, 5:15-6:15PM.
