Next week Obama plans to announce his new Afghanistan-Pakistan plans that will likely include a major escalation of 20,000 to 40,000 more combat troops in Afghanistan. On December 4 we will take to the streets to send a clear message to Upstate New York and Obama: NO ESCALATION IN AFGHANISTAN. In addition, we want the withdrawal of all U.S. military combat forces from Iraq to Afghanistan.

3:30pm Rally at the Rochester War Memorial
