: Want to do something to stop a senseless war?

: Add your name to the Iraq Peace Pledge and send this plea to at least
: five others. Pledge signers "grant permission to use their names and
: cities publicly as an opponent of the ongoing economic and bombing war
: on Iraq." In other words, you make a public statement, and on January
: 21st, that statement will be hand-delivered to Congress.

: www.peacepledge.org

: Your names make a difference. Each Member of Congress will receive a
: list of Pledge signatories from their state. Your names will show the
: breadth of opposition to war with Iraq and swell the ranks of the
: organized movement to stop it.

: On Tuesday, January 21, volunteers from across the U.S. will "Drop and
: Stop-In on Congress" to deliver these names with the simple message "THE
: PEOPLE DEMAND PEACE."

: In October, Congress passed the Iraq war resolution in a heated
: controversy that gave the President a green light for military action.
: But it also implored President to fully support the United Nations
: weapons inspection process. Now Congress must ensure that President
: Bush does adhere to the UN peace process and not drag the country into a
: costly, deadly and unethical war. NOW is the time to pressure Congress
: and the White House.

: www.peacepledge.org

: Already signed your name? Already sent this to everyone you know? Want
: to come to Washington, DC on MLK weekend to personally deliver them?
: Consider joining the "Drop and Stop-In Day," drop the Pledge packet
: yourself and stop-in on your own Member's offices to personally share
: your concerns on behalf of over 40,000 other signers. To join the
: Jan.21 Peace Pledge Congressional Drop and Stop-In, email:
: epic-peacepledge@igc.org with your contact information and availability.

: Some states have only a few dozen signatures. Help make the Peace
: Pledge more forceful by sending this note to others in: Alabama,
: Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine,
: Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Dakota, Rhode Island,
: South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia, Wyoming. More
: signers from these states allow us to speak with a truly national voice!

:
: Peace Pledge packets will be compiled on Monday, January 20th, 10 AM at
: American University's Kay Chapel, 4400 Massachusetts Ave. NW,
: Washington, DC (Tenleytown Metro). Packets will be distributed for the
: Drop and Stop-In following a briefing on Tuesday, January 19th, 9 AM at
: the Washington City Church of the Brethren, 337 N. Carolina Ave. SE
: (Capitol South Metro). Volunteers needed!

: SPONSORS: American Friends Service Committee, Brethren Peace
: Fellowship, Education for Peace in Iraq Center, Fellowship of
: Reconciliation, Lutheran Peace Fellowship, National Network to End the
: War Against Iraq, Pax Christi USA, Peace Action, Quixote Center,
: Resource Center for Nonviolence, Voices in the Wilderness, War Resisters
: League, Women's International League for Peace and Freedom

how about we actually get off our fuckin asses and research the war ourselves. then if we dont want war, we can sign it. i have no idea about you, but im sure 99.9 percent of all people, especially celebrites, who sign shit like this other war protests dont know the true story behind Iraq and the war on terrorism. What you see on the news IS NOT valid info to base goin to war on. unless we all research or have first hand accounts about the chance of war, we should all shut the fuck up, and especially not sign shit like this
