MAKE JOBS NOT WAR!!
All the major US contractors in Iraq are notorious union busters.
Foreign profiteers are draining Iraqi national resources,
outsourcing Iraqi jobs and starving out the population.
Iraqi workers are forming unions, fighting back, and
going on strike for jobs, fuel and a living wage.
Occupation forces have preserved Saddam’s anti-union laws,
arrested or shot protesters and shut down opposition presses.
Stand with us this Saturday
- Against:
War, privatization, cronyism, lies,
Union-busting, starvation,
Occupation, repression
+ For:
Healthcare, living wage, free speech,
Free association, jobs,
Unemployment benefits, democracy
UNION YES - WAR NO!!

Dear Ricky,
You state 'Make Jobs, Not War". On the same day, I see that CAT employees rejected a six year offer. I wonder where CAT will locate their manufactuing facilities now?
These Union guys follow a false god into unemployement. Do they send you Thank you notes from the welfare office or what?
