The annual AIPAC Conference will hit its climax
Tuesday evening, as Prime Minister Ehud Olmert will
speak before a packed crowd, including many prominent
U.S. politicians.

Join us and other Jewish groups as we protest the
violent zionist policies of this nation, which is
pushing Palestinians to the brink of extinction and
continues to violate U.N. resolutions and defy
international law.

We plan to be in the space directly across from the
front entrance of the Washington Convention Center,
9th and Mass. Avenue, NW; 5:30-10:30PM. Bring signs

Last month, Ellen Thomas of the Proposition One Committee and WPC Co-Coordinator Jay Marx attended a conference celebrating Article 9 (the Peace Plank) of the Japanese constitution, attended by over 10,000 people in Tokyo, Japan.  They presented a workshop about DC's successful citizen initiative to ban nuclear weapons in 1993, and connected with peace-positive people from across the globe. Following up on the WPC-sponsored Article 9 report brunch by Japanese lawyers at Busboys last November, Jay and Ellen will review the conference, discuss ways to preserve Article 9 in Japan and promote it elsewhere, and talk about the November 15 Dream Bridge Concert to benefit Vietnamese child victims of Agent Orange. More Information: call Jay at (202)234-2000 or email wpc@igc.org.

Although this is the 13th annual Takoma Park JazzFest, this one is special for three reasons. First, it is moving from its traditional site at Jecqui Park to Carroll Avenue to accommodate the huge numbers of people and large number of first-class bands that are participating. Second, this year's theme, "A Taste of New Orleans," reflects the decision of the organizers to raise funds at the JazzFest for our friends in Louisiana who are still struggling to rebuild several years after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.

PATTY LOVELESS is an irrepressible and phenomenally effective campaigner for peace, non-violence, national health care, the rights of the disabled and an end to the death penalty. A veteran civil rights activist, he is a constant presence in all of our progressive political campaigns, and loves to teach about the social movements that have made America what it is today.

Thanks to the generosity of thousands of human rights supporters,  we've launched our Guantánamo Cell Tour, bringing a life-sized replica of a Guantánamo prison cell to cities across America.  The cell gives ordinary Americans a chance to see and feel what it's like to be prisoner at Guantánamo - and send an unequivocal message that torture is wrong and detention without trials is un-American.

Our Guantánamo Cell Tour is designed to recruit more activists across the country to put additional pressure on Congress to close down Guantánamo prison once and for all. We want to take the cell to key Congressional districts, the political conventions, and other cities and towns nationwide. The tour has already made stops in Miami and Philadelphia and now moves on to Portland, Maine. The first leg of our tour will culminate in a five-day stop (June 25-29) on the National Mall in Washington, DC prior to our lobbying meetings there and in-district ahead of the July 4th holiday. Along the way, thousands of Americans will have a chance to experience what it's like to be inside a Guantánamo cell, as well as record a protest video from inside the cell, which we'll post onto YouTube.
