War Criminal Watch Calendar


Rather than court trials, the architects of the Afghanistan and Iraq occupations and countless illegal acts of torture are out on national speaking tours-and we're keeping track of where they're going so we can hold them accountable for their war crimes! For a detailed list of the crimes of some of these people, see this page. We are pressuring the current government to prosecute not only the war criminals including: Karl Rove, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, George Bush, Jay Bybee, John Yoo, Paul Wolfowitz, Paul Bremer, Alberto Gonzalez, Ehud Olmert, and more! Keep note of when the Obamas are in town as well-we need to keep encouraging them to promote peace and healthcare, not warfare!

For tips on how to perform a successful action and for inspiration from fellow PINKs, see this page. Is there a War criminal coming to your town that you don't see on this list? Planning an action? Need support? Email us.
