*Free Speech Victory! Permits Secured for Pentagon Demonstration
March on the Pentagon, Saturday March 17*

**please circulate widely to your friends, family, and email lists**

[image: Pentagon_march_200]We have all won a tremendous victory! Contrary to
what many people told us was possible, or impossible, we have secured the
permit at the Pentagon for the March 17 demonstration. This has been a long,
hard fought battle for months. Now there are nearly *100 transportation
centers *bringing people to Washington, D.C. on March 17.

*The last thing that Bush and the Pentagon high command want is a mass march
on the Pentagon *on the 40th anniversary of the historic 1967 March on the
Pentagon. The powerful symbolism of a March on the Pentagon is something
that the war-makers fear and want to divert.

They tried to make people think that the March on the Pentagon would be
blocked or diverted using all sorts of logistical, administrative and
political tactics to create obstacles. We refused to back down. We made it
clear that people had the right to march on the Pentagon and that we
intended to pursue that right through legal and political struggle. The
First Amendment is not a gift that can be given or taken away by politicians
or bureaucrats.

*Tens of thousands will now exercise this right directly at the
Pentagon.*This is the only route to end this criminal war. We can't
wait for the
politicians. They talk and talk and maneuver for advantage while the death
toll grows every day. The politicians and their vapid non-binding
resolutions are working to harness the outrage of the anti-war movement to
their own electoral ends. They want to defuse the potential of powerful mass
opposition that can shake the foundations and end the war.

*Standing Together at the Pentagon*

Recently returned veterans from Iraq, veterans from Vietnam, and military
families will be standing tall at the Pentagon on March 17. So will young
people from college campuses and high schools who are mobilizing to come to
the Pentagon. The Muslim and Arab-American community are organizing.
Survivors from New Orleans are conducting a dramatic bus and car caravan
throughout the south to be at the Pentagon demanding: "From  Iraq to New
Orleans Fund Peoples Needs Not the War Machine." *All will be marching
together in a united showing* in this historic demonstration. Be there March
17 March on the Pentagon!

*. Thanks to everyone who donated a few weeks ago to give
travel scholarships to young people who wanted to attend the antiwar
demonstration in DC. Due to your generous giving, we were able to
fulfill many of the scholarship requests from cities and towns across the
country. If you're unable to come to Washington on March 17th, but would
like to sponsor the travel of a young or low-income person --
or several people -- *please make a much needed online donation, or click
for information to write a check
<http://www.pephost.org/site/R?i=W1PxFv-INqejazVEl2gvPQ..>*. We need funds
not only for people to come to Washington, but for the many expenses of
printing flyers, stickers, and posters, and to pay for the stage and sound
on the 17th.
