DC Chapters Take a STAND for Civilians in Libya

DC CHAPTERS TAKE A STAND FOR CIVILIANS IN LIBYA

DC STAND students organized a march outside of the State Department today encouraging Secretary Clinton to implement a no-fly zone in Libya immediately to prevent further violence against citizens in Libya. The students’ actions today attest to the vital importance of a permanent anti-genocide constituency that can rapidly respond to violent targeting of civilians and mass murder. Twenty students from George Washington University, Georgetown, Catholic University and American University converged at the State Department today carrying signs that called for immediate civilian protection under the Responsibility to Protect doctrine and the State Department’s own condemnation of the violence they have referred to as ‘bloodshed.’
