Join us on Thursday, September 28th, as Iraq war veterans and their  
supporters attempt to serve an eviction notice to Bechtel Corporation  
at their Washington, DC office. After a brief gathering in front of  
the 15th Street building, we will serve a notice that enumerates  
Bechtel's wrongdoing and demands that the corporation be immediately  
"evicted from the planet." Bechtel, a leading beneficiary of  
corporate globalization, pushed for the U.S. to go to war with Iraq  
and subsequently received $2.8 billion in Iraq reconstruction contracts.

About the UPRISE Counter Recruitment Tour: It is a month-long tour  
aimed at advancing regional counter-recruitment efforts and linking  
the issues of war and military recruitment to corporate  
globalization. See www.uprisetour.org.

About Iraq Vets Against the War: It was founded by Iraq war veterans  
to give a voice to the large number of active duty service people and  
veterans who are against this war, but are under various pressures to  
remain silent. IVAW members are in 32 states, Washington, D.C.,  
Canada, and on numerous bases overseas, including Iraq. See  
www.ivaw.org.
