This Saturday: Emergency San Francisco Demonstration in Solidarity with Egyptian People

I received this in my inbox today:

PLEASE CIRCULATE WIDELY
Sat. Jan. 29, 12noon, Market & Montgomery Sts., SF
Emergency Demonstration in Solidarity with Egyptian People
Down with Mubarak – Stop the Repression!
End U.S. Aid to the Mubarak Regime!
Victory to the Egyptian People!
Following the popular revolt that overthrew the U.S.-allied dictatorship in Tunisia, the Egyptian people have taken to the streets in the hundreds of thousands demanding the fall of another U.S. client dictator, Hosni Mubarak. The U.S. gives $1.3 billion per year in “security aid” to Egypt, second only to Israel as the largest recipient of U.S. aid. That “security aid” has been used to buy the tear gas and other weapons and equipment that are killing Egyptian people attempting to exercise their right to protest and speak out.
Many organizations including the ANSWER Coalition will be participating in the Jan. 29 emergency demonstration.
Click here to see a video of the protest held on Wed., Jan. 26 in SF, which was called on just a few hours notice.
