NOAM CHOMSKY: JOIN US IN TRAFALGAR SQUARE ON 8 OCTOBER

by London - Open-Publishing - Friday 7 October 2011

The Antiwar Mass Assembly on Saturday continues to attract high
profile pledges, the latest from Noam Chomsky and others who have
issued the following statement:

After 10 years of war in Afghanistan, more than 100,000 Nato
troops remain and tens of thousands have died. Government claims
that the war is contributing to Britain’s stability look
increasingly hollow. Opinion polls suggest the majority of
Britons want a speedy withdrawal of British troops, a view
recently endorsed by the trade unions. Politicians have to get in
step with public opinion and announce a date to bring troops
home. We will be attending the mass anti-war assembly this
Saturday 8 October in Trafalgar Square. We urge you to join us.

This is clearly going to be a memorable day. It will end with a
march to Downing Street, led by ex-soldiers and military
families, to demand that the government bring the troops home
from Afghanistan now.

Please do all you can in the days remaining to spread the word
and encourage as many people as possible to join us.
