Philly Demonstration to Stop Drone War Command Center in Horsham, PA. & Protest Declaration of ‘Endless War’

March 13, 2015 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

PHILADELPHIA, Friday, March 13: Demonstration to Stop Drone War Command Center in Horsham, PA. & Protest Declaration of ‘Endless War’, 15th & Market Street Streets, Philadelphia, PA 19102.

Stand at SEPTA entrance/west side of Phila. City Hall, NW corner, 15th & Market Street, Streets, Phila., PA. 19102.  Hold a banner or sign, handout flyers.  Speak, Friday, February 13, 4p.m., during rush hour.

Protest the new AUMF (Authorization to Use Military Force) Obama’s Declaration of ‘Endless War’ 

Intended to fight ISIS, the new AUMF is modeled on the 2001 AUMF that was intended to fight Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Thirteen years later, that AUMF has been used to justify military action in 13 countries. Where will this new one take us? And can we afford it?

Call your senators,

and
your U.S. Representatives ,

No time to loose.

At the same time Protest  Drone War Command Center in Horsham, PA .  which is what the AUMF means…drone strikes, on and on, endless war.

DEMAND that the new governor of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf, initiate state hearing into the drone war command being established in Horsham, PA, outside of Philadelphia, and the Horsham Air Guard Station.

What’s the cost of drone warfare right here at home? Demand Schools…not Million$ for PA Drone Murder Command.

PA Gov. Tom Wolf (and head of the PA Guard/Air National Guard), take responsibility. Initiate hearings on the drone command center.  While funded by the U.S. Air Force, the drone command center is located at the Horsham Air Guard station on commonwealth property. There has, as yet, not been a single citizens hearing by state authorities. Governor Wolf can initiate these badly needed hearings.

Call and write the Governor’s office now: 508 E-floor Main Capitol Building, Harrisburg, PA 17120, tel: (717) 787-2500.
