rhys 0 #1 October 21, 2006 I know i will get drilled by war loving members here and I know that it will take more than a petiton to change the mind of the GWB administration. but if there are any peaceful members here in the SC? you might want to contribute to the voice of peace. please read below. North Korea’s announcement of a nuclear weapons test last week was one more step down a nightmarish road: a new global nuclear arms race. Iran could be the next domino to fall in this dangerous game, and the situation is reaching a critical turning point this week as the UN Security Council debates sanctions. Much depends on US President Bush. His threatening policies of regime change, preemptive strike, and the invasion of Iraq -- while also undermining global disarmament talks and developing a new generation of nukes -- have many countries rushing to build nuclear weapons. In Iran, as elsewhere, Bush has refused to engage his enemies in direct and unconditional talks. This policy is failing, and even prominent conservative Americans have called for Bush to finally talk to Iran. Please click below to join the chorus of voices and send a personal message to President Bush, calling on the US to negotiate with Iran: www.CeasefireCampaign.org Talks between the US and Iran won’t guarantee a solution to the nuclear problem, but no talks will guarantee failure, and could lead to a disastrous new war. Despite credible reports that the US may be planning a military strike on Iran, there has been no global outcry of opposition. At least, not yet. Please forward this email to your friends and family, and let’s get a flood of messages sent to President Bush. We’ll track the number and publicize it in the media, and show the Bush Administration that the world will not be silent in the face of these dangerous and failing policies. With hope, Ricken, Rachel, Amparo, Tom and the Ceasefire Campaign Team. PS – Congratulations to the tens of thousands of Ceasefire Campaigners who signed the petition for a new peace process in Israel/Palestine. Much is happening on this front, and the call to restart peace talks was endorsed last week by a prominent list of over 130 former heads of state and other notable international figures. We'll keep a close watch on this situation for opportunities for us all to make a difference.
