 Veterans For Peace (VFP), a national organization of veterans of all
 eras whose mission is to increase public awareness on the true costs
 of war, has agreed to endorse a petition for legal action filed by
 the Los Angeles-based Humanitarian Law Project/International
 Educational Development (HLP/IED and San Francisco-based Association of Humanitarian Lawyers (AHL) against the United States.


 The petition was filed on behalf of "unnamed, unnumbered patients
 and medical staff both living and dead" at the medical facilities
 in Falluja on grounds of the Geneva Conventions.


 VFP believes in abiding by the Geneva Conventions, which prohibit
 attacks on any medical facility or medical personnel, whether
 civilian or military.


 A copy of the filed petition can be obtained from attorney Karen
 Parker (tel. 415.668.2752 or 415.533.1066, ied at igc.org.)
 VFP would like to encourage all concerned groups and individuals to
 support this action.


Veterans for Peace Orange County Chapter welcomes you to the Arlington West Project held each Sunday just north of the Huntington Beach pier at Sixth Street.  This is one of the most powerful statements being made against this illegal and immoral war.  We welcome your participation and need your help.
