Miriam1 Posted January 19, 2007 Hello all, An emergency rally has been called by the newly formed Coalition of Concerned Somali-Canadians against the illegal occupation of Somalia by Ethiopian troops and the illegal US bombing of Somalia. A Coalition of concerned Somali-Canadians is holding a demonstration at the United States Consulate to condemn the illegal US backed Ethiopian occupation of Somalia. Please read the following and come out to support: Demonstration to End the Occupation of Somalia Saturday, January 20th 11:00am US Consulate (360 University Avenue - North of Queen) The Ethiopian government's decision to declare war on Somalia is a direct violation of both United Nations' Charter governing the respect of the independence, territorial integrity and sovereignty of nations, as well as the UN Security Council Resolution 1725 which forbids bordering states from deploying troops to Somalia. The coalition demands: 1. An immediate withdrawal of Ethiopian troops from Somalia. 2. The end to the U.S diplomatic and military support of the Ethiopian occupation of Somalia. 3. The immediate seizure of US bombing of Somalia. 4. Our Canadian government to join the international community in condemning this aggression. This aggression has further polarized an already fragmented society further worsening the humanitarian crisis in Somalia. You are cordially invited to join us in our demonstration on Saturday, January the 20th 2007 at 11am at the US Consulate. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedSea Posted January 20, 2007 HAYAM, Sister, thanks for posting this.I think this a good event just to show the world(although they could care less) how the somali people abroad feel about the naked agression of Ethiopia into their country. I won't be there as I don't reside in that city or country for that matter.So I wish everything goes as planned Insha Allah. thanks sis.Hayam. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
