CITIZENS' HEARING ON THE LEGALITY OF U. S. ACTIONS IN IRAQ

"The Citizens’ Hearing on the Legality of U.S. Actions in Iraq will be held on January 20-21, 2007, in Tacoma, Washington, two weeks before the Feb. 5 court martial of Lieutenant Ehren Watada at Fort Lewis.. The Citizens’ Hearing will function as a tribunal to put the Iraq War on trial, in response to the Army putting Lt. Watada on trial as the first U.S. military officer to refuse deployment to Iraq.

Please help bring out the truth about the Iraq War by donating today. By helping the Citizens’ Hearing document the legal case against the war, you will help present the case for Lt. Ehren Watada--and for those who may follow his example. By highlighting the illegality of U.S. actions in Iraq, the tribunal can inform military personnel and other citizens to reflect deeply on their roles and responsibilities in an illegal war...

The Citizens’ Hearing will be hosted by The Evergreen State College’s Tacoma Campus (1210 6th Ave.) on January 20-21, 2007. Please consult the Citizens’ Hearing at http://www.WarTribunal.org for the schedule and contact information. The Citizens’ Hearing Advisory Board includes Jeremy Brecher, David Krieger, Richard Falk, Nadia McCaffrey, Blase Bonpane, Bishop Gumbleton, and others. For more information about the case of Lt. Watada go to http://www.ThankYouLT.org," quoting wartribunal.org
