Solidarity with Palestine statewide protest in Rockland, Maine

 

 

Solidarity with Palestine! No more $$$ for Israel. No more $$$ for Ukraine. 

Bring our war $$$ home!

 

Come out to be with concerned citizens Saturday, March 23 at 1:30 pm to say NO to bad funding priorities -- no more $$ for Israel! No more $$ for Ukraine!

We'll stand at the busy intersection of Route 1 & Route 73 in Rockland, Maine.

As the genocide in Gaza continues, and violence spreads throughout the region, the Biden administration wants to rush more billions to Israel for bombing and terrorizing Palestinians. Over 100,000 have been killed or wounded. Mass starvation now grips Gaza. Israel is also moving 15,000 troops into the West Bank to create a similar situation there.

Still the U.S. continues funding and arming genocide while many in the U.S. live paycheck to paycheck, struggling just to get by.

Our demands:

* Permanent ceasefire now in Gaza. Allow humanitarian aid to flow.
* End U.S. aid to racist apartheid Israel!
* Peace in Ukraine - No weapons, no money for the Ukraine War
* Abolish NATO – End U.S. militarism & sanctions!
* Fund people’s needs, not the war machine!
* No war with China!
* Protect Earth's environment from the deadly insult of war!
* Fight racism & bigotry not war!
* U.S. hands off Haiti!
* End AFRICOM
