We will be holding protests/press conferences in cities across New York State the day ex NY Governor Pataki announces his run for President (expected in January 2007). We are looking for participants across NY state. Join the St. Patricks 4 and Dr. Rafil Dhafir supporters and others that have felt the wrath of Pataki’s political opportunism.
Pataki has politicized 9-11 and is now looking to reap the benefits by running for President. New York State has seen a disproportionate number of political prosecutions for terrorism (Dhafir & other Help the Needy defendants, Aref, Hossain,...) unprecedented high profile cases to intimate dissent (Lynne Stewart, The St. Patricks 4) and Pataki has publicly slandered defendants (Dhafir) weeks before their trials, preventing them from having a fair trial.
He has abused his office, ruined the lives of countless individuals and their families, trampled on the civil rights of New Yorkers. Not only is he wrong for President he epitomizes everything that is wrong with the way Domestic War on Terror is being waged. The paranoia in the defense of liberty has got to cease.
If you are interested in holding an action in your city contact us. All we need is a location and media contact.
Join us and help send a message to Pataki and all of the other 2008 Presidential Hopefuls. They need to hear that the targeting and persecution of Muslims and Arab Americans is wrong, that suppressing dissent and silencing critics is un-American, that the inhumane treatment of prisoners whether it be at home Quantanamo Bay or in Iraq is wrong and defies the prophetic teachings and most of all they need to be told that there is a more humane way to deal with terrorism!
