27] –The Islamic regime
in Iran is using execution verdicts as a desperate act to suppress peaceful
demonstrations and protests due to the disastrous economic condition in
Iran. The judicial system in Iran executes innocent activist and
individuals by forced confessions, torture and sham trials. The unjust
death sentences for Pakhshan Azizi and Varisheh Moradi is another act of
desperation by the Islamic Republic’s use of capital punishment to suppress
members of minority communities and terrorize Iranian women who are fighting
tirelessly for their rights as equal citizens of Iran. You are asked to
show your urgent support for contacting the United Nations Human Rights office
and Iranian mission at United Nations to demand the Islamic republic of Iran
stop the unjust execution verdicts for both women and hundreds of other
prisoners on death row in Iran. These prisoners must receive fair trials
according to international judicial standards, including the right for all
prisoners to independent counsels.
28] –Senator Chris Murphy [moveon-help@list.moveon.org] on Tues., March 4 at 8:15 to 10:30 PM wants you to join a Live Chat and Pre-buttal to Trump's address to Congress. Instead of listening to Trump ramble through his lies, fearmongering, and gloating, check out a mix of fact-checking and, most importantly, opportunities to take action against Trump and Elon's billionaire takeover ... and, yes, some good old-fashioned snark. For the 30 minutes before the speech, hear a live conversation with lawmakers, advocates, commentators, and comedians—to lift up our spirits, lift up the stakes of what's happening in this country, and lift up compelling ways all of us can mobilize and organize the opposition.
29] – Jewish Voice for Peace is doing a Power Half-Hour for Gaza: Channel grief & outrage into action to stop a genocide. A year into the genocide in Gaza, we are overwhelmed with sorrow and rage. There are no words to describe the devastating pain of the past year in which the Israeli military has killed over 44,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including more than 17,000 children. The International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court have both declared that Israel must stop the genocidal acts being committed on the Palestinian people. And the U.S. government is actively supporting the Israeli military as it wreaks devastation on the over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. JVP continues to come together as a political community in its daily half-hour to take action, Monday through Friday, for the past year. Join in and take collective action to demand an arms embargo to Israel, immediate end to the genocide, a lasting ceasefire and an end to Israeli siege, apartheid, occupation, and oppression of Palestinians and Lebanon. All are welcome. All are needed. Get involved at 3 PM ET on Tues., March 4, Wed., March 5, Thurs., March 6 & Mon., March 10.

The nuclear weapons states are all upgrading the nuclear arsenals.

34] – Despite talk of cutting government waste, DOGE has yet to slash the bloated $900 billion Pentagon budget. Unfortunately, CODEPINK seems to think mega-billionaire Elon Musk and his 20-something techies will cut the Pentagon budget. Trump will increase the military budget. On Tues., March 4 at 8 PM ET, join a CODEPINK Congress Capitol Calling Party with Col. (ret.) Lawrence Wilkerson who served as Secretary of State Colin Powell's Chief of Staff (2002-2005), and as Associate Director of the State Department's Policy Planning staff under the directorship of Ambassador Richard N. Haass. RSVP at https://www.codepink.org/cpc304?utm_campaign=march_iwwd_member_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_source=codepink
