PEOPLE’S FORUM AGAINST WAR
NO TO WAR ON SYRIA!!
PEACE MARCH to US Embassy
7 September, 2013 (Saturday), 2.00pm
Venue: US Embassy, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi
Meeting point: Odisha Bhawan, Kautilya Marg
Syria is facing a bloody civil war with tragic consequences for its people. The task before the international community is to urgently address the humanitarian crisis through peaceful means.
Instead, the USA and its cohorts are embarking on yet another suicidal war-mongering project in Syria. This cynical adventurism would have larger consequences for the West Asian region.We join peace loving people from across the world in opposing war and calling for a just and peaceful resolution to the tragedy in Syria.
We also demand that the government of India join with other southern countries in pressing for a political dialogue and immediate ceasefire in Syria.
OBAMA! HANDS OFF SYRIA!!
They say MORE WAR, We say NO MORE!!
