Help Create a U.S. Department of Peace
I am involved in the lobbying effort to establish a Cabinet-level Department of Peace. Please check it out at www.ThePeaceAlliance.org , and if you support the bill, contact your Congressperson and tell them so. Ask them to co-sponsor the bill and do everything in their power to further its passing. You can visit www.congress.org for your Representative's contact information. For more information on this, visit our Take Action section at: http://www.thepeacealliance.org/action
This Campaign is sponsored by The Peace Alliance. At The Peace Alliance, we are devoted to the creation of a new political consciousness, based upon the nonviolent principles articulated by Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Fundamental change, in the words of Dr. King, involves a "qualitative change in our souls as well as a quantitative change in our lives."
In the spirit of building more deeply nonviolent social and political structures, we invite you to join with us as we participate in a concerted, strategic grass-roots effort to support the proposed legislation to establish a Cabinet-level Department of Peace within the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government. Please visit our Website at www.ThePeaceAlliance.org to find out how you can get involved!
It goes without saying that this is a hugely critical issue. (Abolition and Women's Suffrage seemed far-fetched when they were first introduced, by the way.) We can do this. Please help.
With love,
Marianne

Iraq's Million
By Robert C. Koehler
Tribune Media Services (For release 12/6/07)
In the Fantasy Middle East, the troop surge is helping plucky Iraq get its act together; and Iran, as serious a threat as ever and still lusting to start World War III, awaits liberation by the superpower known as "Johnny Democracy."
In the reality version, our legacy is bad water, cancer and social chaos. Iraq has, by one scientific extrapolation, surpassed the million mark in war dead and continues to rack up other numbers (4 million internal and external refugees, for instance, but not to worry, only 133 of them got into the U.S. this year) that . . . I dunno, maybe it's just me . . . seem antithetical to the idea of democracy. And of course, as the latest National Intelligence Estimate has just embarrassingly informed the world, Iran shut down its nuclear weapons program four years ago. ...
