| Standing for Peace-- Refusing to Quit Alliance for Peace and Justice; and Student Action Network Join us this Friday at Toomer's Corner-4:45pm to 5:45pm. This gathering, on the 3rd Friday of each month, will be one of many across the country that demands a stop to the war in Iraq. Feel free to bring your own appropriate sign, or use one of ours. You can purchase posterboard across the street at J&M Bookstore at the event. It's that easy! Stand up and be heard! Hope to see you there! As we yearn for peace, we are painfully aware that our nation waged a pre-emptive, unnecessary, illegal, immoral war on another country. Many thousands are dead, injured, suffering and fleeing, because of us. Peace is hard work. Stand with others. Signs are available. Or make your own. Please note the change in time (to allow artists more time for set-up) and be aware that certain street areas of downtown are closed to traffic. If you have time, stay for the Downtown Art Walk.

End the torture flights! Jeppesen is a San Jose company that profits from illegal kidnappings and torture. The company handles the logistics for the CIA's so-called "extraordinary rendition" flights -- torture flights. This action honors the International Day in Support of the Victims of Torture. June 26 is the anniversary of the effective date of the UN's Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. The UN Convention Against Torture clearly states that no country may "extradite a person to another State where there are substantial grounds for believing that he would be in danger of being subjected to torture." The convention entered into effect on June 26, 1987 and was signed by the U.S. in 1988. This means that the CIA’s practice of "extraordinary rendition" -- outsourcing the interrogation of suspected terrorists to countries known to practice torture -- violates U.S. as well as international law. San Jose-based Jeppesen, a Boeing subsidiary, has been accused of providing logistics for those "extraordinary rendition" flights. The U.S. Justice Department intervened in a lawsuit against Jeppesen, claiming that state secrets would be revealed if the lawsuit were allowed to go ahead. But in July 2006, Jeppesen Managing Director Bob Overby told employees, "We do the torture flights." Suppose a local company had been accused of sex trafficking or drug running? Wouldn’t there be a general outcry and condemnation? Should law-breakers be able to do business freely in our city? Why is Jeppesen still a respected member of the San Jose business community? For more than a year, San Jose Peace and Justice Center and other activists in San Jose and on the Peninsula have been organizing protests against Jeppesen, demanding that it cut ties to the CIA and torture flights. Jeppesen has so far refused to respond. Tell Jeppesen: "We don't want torturers in our community! Stop working for the CIA!"

| Sir! No Sir! - Free Movie Free Movie to educate citizens and encourage more participation in the Iraq Moratorium event on Friday. Sir! no Sir! tells the long suppressed story of the GI movement to end the war in Vietnam. This is the story of one of the most vibrant and widespread upheavals of the 1960’s- one that had profound impact on American society yet has been virtually obliterated from the collective memory of that time. This movie goes very nicely with the IVAW's Winter Soldier Testimonies that have just been placed under oath in DC, as the initial Winter Soldier testimonies occurred during the Vietnam War, and as this movie documents, this important event is nearly obliterated from our history.
