Work for Peace

For This idea to work we need 50+ volunteers

willing to work for free to end the war. It doesn't have to be full-time, just as much time as you've got. Even teenagers can make a difference... nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something.

This is not a personal site- it was made for anti-war Americans to organize to stop the endless war.

Volunteers are needed as internet activists, people that can help spread the word to every anti-war website and blog in America. If they really want to end the war, surely they'll put up a link to this directory that lists true peace candidates nationwide.

We need people to blog about this, write about it, get Naomi Klein, Howard Zinn, Greg Palast and all the other concerned citizens to write about it. We need friends of stars to contact them, free concerts by every anti-war band there is. Are Greenday and Eddie Vedder for real? Then get out there and start playing some free concerts for someone on this list of Peace Candidates!

This is the logical path antiwar America can choose to overcome the mainstream media and take back our country - using the internet to unite all concerned citizens.

It's like in Bug's Life- the top 1% have more than the bottom 90%. They have all the power, but we little ants outnumber them 100 to 1. United, we can win. We need to get everyone on board- peace candidates in every state to end the war. Every antiwar blog needs to post a banner until PeaceCandidates.com is everywhere.

This is not to be self-aggrandizing, but this is the collective action we can take to end the war. Getting a few more democrats in Congress is not good enough. We need real opposition candidates, and it's up to us to find them.

We need your help. Just a few people alone cannot:

create the articles, videos, flyers, bumper stickers, etc
publicize the website
recruit antiwar candidates
research the current list of candidates
wiki the state & candidate pages
write the collaborative book exposing BushCo and the Complict Congress
and on and on

So please, antiwar activists- cut your reading in half, and start writing about the Peace Candidates. Wiki the state pages, build this site and spread the notion of regular Americans running for Congress.

What's that? There's too little time- it'll never happen? Well that's to our advantage because they're not ready for us. d- 8

This is Plan B in case the antiwar candidates for Pres do not get the nomination.

111 nations adopt cluster bomb treaty, but not US

Fri, 05/30/2008 - 20:33 — nadia

DUBLIN, Ireland (AP) - Diplomats from 111 nations formally adopted a landmark treaty banning cluster bombs on Friday after futile calls for participation by the weapons' biggest makers and users, particularly the United States.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged every nation in the world to sign the painstakingly negotiated pact "without delay."

Twelve days of negotiations ended after diplomats from scores of nations delivered speeches embracing the accord. It requires signatories not to use cluster bombs, to destroy existing stockpiles within eight years, and to fund programs that clear old battlefields of dud bombs.
