Holiday Fundraising Appeal to Stop FBI Repression
Triangle Committee to Stop FBI Repression
Across the country, people are celebrating holidays, gathering together with
friends and family, hoping for a world of peace and prosperity. For the
anti-war and international solidarity activists whose homes were raided by
the FBI and who were subpoenaed to the Grand Jury, these holidays are even
more meaningful. The children are hugged a little tighter and moments with
loved ones are more precious. A pall hangs over what should be joyous family
time, as U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald intensifies the witch hunt and
expands the repression with more subpoenas.
In this real life drama, Patrick Fitzgerald is playing Scrooge,
re-subpoenaing three Minneapolis women -- Tracy Molm, Anh Pham, and Sarah
Martin -- and threatening them with jail. So far the three �choose to
refuse� by not testifying at the Grand Jury. Fitzgerald is expanding the
repression too, ruining more holidays by handing out subpoenas to young
Jewish and Palestinian-Americans who took solidarity trips to Palestine. It
is outrageous!
We need to do everything we can to stop this witch hunt, to defend the
anti-war and other movements, and to keep our brothers and sisters out of
jail. Please donate so we can pay the excellent lawyers representing the now
19 of us with subpoenas. The lawyers are doing hundreds of hours of work and
with so many clients and the bills are adding up. Also, please give
generously so we can continue to tour speakers, send delegations to the U.S.
Congress, and organize protests to resist the Grand Jury repression.

We ask you to support those being targeted here at home and help us to shine
a light for people in other countries who are being abused and murdered by
U.S. war and occupation. We have friends who believe in us around the globe!
We wish you and your family a new year filled with peace and justice!
Thank you,
