John Pilger: The lies of Hiroshima

The lies of Hiroshima live on, props in the war crimes of the 20th century
The 1945 attack was murder on an epic scale. In its victims' names, we must not allow a nuclear repeat in the Middle East

Hiroshima Day

Wednesday, August 6, 2008

This year our annual community dedication to peace will be marking the 63^rd anniversary of the nuclear destruction of Hiroshima , Japan .

Gather on sidewalk adjacent to Woodland Cemetery on Station Road in Bellport

at 6:45 PM for candlelight procession that begins at 7:00 PM.

(you can take Station Rd south from either Sunrise H or Montauk H to the cemetery)

The candlelight peace procession will go to the Bellport Bay (about 15 minute walk) where there will be a program of music, talks and poetry. This year we are happy to have Mac Bica of Veteran’s For Peace and local activist-singer Catherine Synan Greene.

Please join the South Country peace Group as we mark this solemn occasion.

Following the outdoor program (approximately 8:30 PM) please join us for refreshments at the Bellport Unitarian Universalist Fellowship located at 51 Browns Lane —a 5 minute walk from the site of the SCPG program. Please note that the UUFB will serve as a rain location in the event of rain.
