As the U.S./NATO war in Afghanistan enters its tenth year, casualties on 
both sides are at an all-time high. Spending on the war in Afghanistan 
alone is over $2.5 billion per week—that’s $2,500,000,000 every week—at 
a time when tens of millions of people have lost their jobs, housing, 
healthcare and pensions here, and most Afghani people live in extreme 
poverty.  Regardless of public relations proclamations from the White 
House, the Iraq occupation is far from over, and the U.S.-backed Israeli 
oppression of the Palestinian people is intensifying.

The real military budget this year is over $1,000,000,000,000—or more 
than $32,000 per second. The biggest banks, military industries and 
other corporations are reaping vast profits from the suffering of 
working people in the war zones and here. At the same time as they sit 
atop mountains of cash, corporations like the Blackstone Group (owners 
of the Hilton Hotel) are attacking the health benefits of thousands of 
union hotel workers in San Francisco who are struggling to win a new 
contract. Politicians and the right-wing corporate media constantly seek 
to divide working people by fomenting Islamophobia, anti-Arab and 
anti-immigrant racism.
Join us on Oct. 6 to say NO to war, racism and all bigotry, and YES to 
meeting the needs of the people!
