INTERNATIONAL DAY OF ACTION ~ PICKET RALLY: NO WAR ON IRAN!
 
The imperialist war drive led by the US government is escalating against Iran. Iran is facing sanctions imposed by the EU, US, UN and Canada, as well as imperialist covert operations including assassinations and sabotage. Manipulation and the negative propaganda war against Iran are an indication of the seriousness of imminent imperialist military attack.
 
Mobilization Against War & Occupation (MAWO) has joined and endorsed the February 4th call to action against war on Iran by U.S. social justice and antiwar organizations. Join MAWO in Vancouver along with cities across the US and around the world to demand:
 
>> No War on Iran!
>> No Sanctions on Iran!
>> No Intervention and No Assassinations!
 
PICKET RALLY:
Saturday February 4
3pm
U.S. Consulate
1075 West Pender at Thurlow
Downtown Vancouver, Canada
