September 24, 2005 has been set as the date for national demonstrations by the U.S. antiwar movement. We will return to the streets of the nation's capital, and elsewhere, with a force determined to challenge the continuation of a brutal and immoral war and occupation.

That the Iraqi War is the central issue in world politics today is not in dispute. Neither is the fact that there is a rapidly growing opposition to this war in the United States and across the globe.

The potential for a truly massive turnout that can open the door wider than ever to our movement's expressing the will of tens of millions is within reach. But we have been asked to divide our energies on September 24 between two competing antiwar coalitions, UFPJ and ANSWER. Both have announced mass mobilizations in Washington, D.C. on that date, but in different locations.

There can be no justification for such a division. It is unthinkable that we can most effectively confront the warmakers by marching separately in what will inevitably be portrayed as two rival protests.

People who want to end the war and occupation will never understand. Is the destruction of Iraq and its people to rage on while our movement divides its energies? While billions are spent daily to make Iraq a virtual colony? While the same billions are looted from social programs at home? While U.S. soldiers die for corporate profits and while the American people are rapidly learning that the war was a lie from start to finish?

We cannot offer those who oppose the war and occupation a divided house. The divisions in our movement must give way to united action. There is still time!

We the undersigned propose that both coalitions join in support of these unifying demands: Bring the Troops Home Now!  Money for Jobs, Education, Health Care and Housing, Not for Wars and Occupations!

This appears to be a sound basis for unity, in accord with what both coalitions have always championed.

The ANSWER coalition has called for a number of additional demands going beyond Iraq including:  End Colonial Occupation from Iraq to Palestine to Haiti; Support the Palestinian People's Right of Return; Stop the Threats Against Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, and North Korea; and U.S. Out of the Philippines.

The unifying demands in bold above provide the framework for advancing these demands, which can be reinforced by speakers, banners, contingents, signs and leaflets.

It is understood that both ANSWER and UFPJ, through their own coalitions, would be free to express their demands as they see fit. We are convinced that new forms must be employed to ensure that we do not constantly repeat the present divisive scenario so that the democratic expression of the ranks of the antiwar movement, which urgently call for unity, can be brought to bear.

Our differences pale before the power we can marshal with a united, independent and massive movement that visibly expresses our strength and unity. We offer our good will and experience to help resolve the differences now and move forward united and stronger.

We propose to meet as soon as possible with representatives of the national antiwar coalitions to resolve all outstanding issues. There is no time to waste.

Issued by the Emergency Ad Hoc Committee for a United Demonstration in Washington, D.C. on September 24, 2005
