"PEACE CARAVAN TO SOA"

CARPOOL CARAVANS TO DEPART ATLANTA

SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS

SOA: 
School of Assassins, Atrocities, Avarice

In Latin America, clergy, peasants, nuns, educators, women and children
are indiscriminately murdered
and disappeared by terrorists trained at SOA.  This
institution was first started by the
CIA and Special Forces in the jungles
of Panama
, but has long since
been moved to this state, where assassins, rapists and torturers are
trained for their vile mission.  SOA can only be stopped here at home
where it begins at Ft Benning, Georgia
.  More information available:

www.soaw.org

SPECIAL SATURDAY EVENING EVENT 7PM
We're all invited to join AFSC, GPJC and other local sponsors at Country
Inn & Suites in Columbus for
a SOA Georgia peace advocates program. For further information about this
evening event contact
