Hi -- this link http://capwiz.com/unausa/issues/alert/?alertid=11591421
to the United Nations Association, USA has the info -- if it for some
reason is loaded specifically for me (not sure), then use the info to
make your own CALL 202-225-3121 or email to your US Rep -- you can find
them at: http://www.house.gov/
House Concurrent Resolution 362 contains language urging the Pres to
blockade Iran -- this would be an act of war. Bush taking such action
would be to ignore US responsibility under the UN Charter since he would
be acting without UN Security Council authority. Another illegal war.
Last night Steve Leeper, Elizabeth Baldwin and two people from Hiroshima
(one a survivor from the 1945 bombing) were here. Steve is carrying a
very very clear WAKE UP call to us -- he says that folks in all parts of
the world he has been recently know that the world is teetering --
teetering because Bush / Cheney is determined to expand the HOT war --
they are planning to bomb Iran -- or help Israel to do it -- and will
leave office having ensured their vision of war without end...
In addition to this grim perception of our situation -- Steve and the
people he has been talking to feel that the "nuclear option" is still on
the US table -- that this attack on Iran is all about *using nukes* to
stop nukes... a twisted justification to step out of the "deterrence
only" position on nuclear weapons...with yet another "first strike" by
this country.
PLEASE TAKE TIME TO ACT -- PLEASE CONSIDER MORE ACTIONS -- PLEASE
COMMUNICATE IDEAS -- THERE IS NOTHING MORE URGENT!
