Jeff Berryhill was arrested a short while ago at the port of tacoma. for allegedly trespassing.

We presume that he is being held at the tacoma city jail, however, that has yet to be confirmed.

The cops have said 'no bail', but then again, they always do.

Support for Jeff would be greatly appreciated in the form of jail solidarity or possibly bail.

That is all the information i have now, will keep you all posted.

tear it down!

No War on Iraq! No War on Iran!

The current administration and the complicit congress have clearly made evident their intent to escalate tensions and pave the way for an attack on Iran. This comes on the heels of a catastrophic war on the people of Iraq, which continues to kill and dispossess numerous people daily. As a movement for peace and justice it is our responsibility to exact a social and political cost for such actions and prevent them when threy are imminent.

Saturday, August 2nd, is the National Day of Action against war with Iran. Join us at I-5's Exit 119, outside Fort Lewis, from Noon-3pm for a family-friendly demonstration and overpass rally.

An Attack could be Imminent!
We Can’t Afford to Wait!
U.S. out Of Iraq, Stay out of Iran!
Money for human needs, not war!

Organized by IVAW, G.I. Voice, Olympia SDS
