West Seattle Counter Recruiting
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">

Signing up for the military isn't like taking a job or registering for a camp or school. It is a serious decision that has lifelong consequences. Recruiters are quick to emphasize the good points about being in the military, but there are many downsides. What recruiters say about life in the military at best omits many facts. At worst, recruiters tell out-and-out lies to sign up recruits. BEFORE YOU ENLIST!
CHECK EVERY LINE BEFORE YOU SIGN
COUNTER-RECRUITMENT ADS This series of ads was recently run in Seahawk Talk, the newspaper of West Seattle's Chief Sealth High School. WSNPJ is running these ads to counteract the effects of the army's misleading full-page military recruiting ads, which run in every issue of Seahawk Talk.
If you or your group would like to place ads like these in your local high school or college paper and would like design help or advice from WSNPJ, please contact us. For more info contact WSNFPJ at:

CALL CONGRESS--WAKE UP, DEFUND WAR

Call or email your Congressional Representative. On Tues, 4/8, Gen. Petraeus told Congress, "We haven't turned any corners, we haven't seen any lights at the end of the tunnel."
So our top General in Iraq has no plans to end our endless occupation. But of course, we all knew that.

That means Congress has to end the occupation.
Our friends at United for Peace and Justice, the largest anti-war coalition, want all of us to call our Representative in the House on Thursday, 4/11, with a simple message:
1. Say No to Bush's request for $102 billion more for Iraq
2. Co-sponsor Lynn Woolsey's HR 5507 and safely bring all the troops home.
Call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 to find your Representative's phone number
Want to do more?
1. Email your Senators and Representative and ask your friends and relatives to join you:

Rep. Jay Inslee: (206) 361-0233, www.house.gov/Inslee
Rep. Jim Mcdermott: (206) 553-7170, www.house.gov/mcdermot
