during President George W. Bush's phony "peace meeting"

It is a monumental insult to the people of the Middle East and all justice-minded people
that war criminal Bush would dare to convene a "peace meeting" while Washington
continues to bring occupation, genocide and devastation to Iraq and Afghanistan,
destabilization to Palestine and Lebanon, and constant threats to Iran and Syria in its
quest for oil and colonial empire. This phony meeting should be called off.
As an anti-war movement, we must ask ourselves: Can we allow the war criminals,
who time after time have callously ignored the anti-war majority in the U.S. and globally,
to get away with this outrageous farce?
Some may be confused about the purpose of the Annapolis meeting, so let's speak
plain truth: It isn't really about peace and justice for the Palestine–it's about deception, occupation and war. It's about isolating popular forces and countries that reject U.S. rule. It's about attempting to force new concessions on the Palestinian people, while attempting to normalize relations between Saudi Arabia and other Arab governments with Israel.
All while Tel Aviv continues its all-out assault on the Palestinian people. And it's about preparing for a new war.
At this moment, Palestinians in Gaza are being deprived of food, fuel, medicines and
other basic necessities by an economic embargo imposed by Israel and backed by the U.S. Meanwhile, more Israeli settlements, roads, walls and checkpoints are being set up in
the West Bank each day. Palestinian, Arab and Muslim communities in the U.S. have
also been subjected to a war of racist repression and need our support
Beyond pretending to be a "peace broker," Bush hopes that the Annapolis meeting will:
- Divide and weaken the just struggle of the Palestinian people;
- Prop up the unstable Israeli occupation regime;
- Legitimize and strengthen the illegal occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan, and U.S. plans for colonization of the whole Middle East;
- Help prepare for aggression and war against Iran.
Representatives of the Israeli apartheid regime will be in Annapolis, along with some
Palestinian and other Arab forces that are under severe pressure from Washington or are willingly in its orbit. Those who refuse to tow the line have not been invited or chosen to
boycott the meeting.
We must not be silent when the war criminals in the White House and Pentagon are talking peace - while waging war and planning new wars. This is the time for anti-war forces to take a strong stand!
END THE WAR NOW
* Get out of Iraq and Afghanistan NOW
* Stop preparations for war under the guise of "peace," from Iran to Syria, Palestine and Lebanon
* Free Palestine – Support the Right to Return and self-determination
