Peace, No War: Urgent Appeal
Today I received this email from a colleague who had just spoken with France's UN office. They are begging us to flood their offices and the other UN offices with emails to stop the war. France needs to know that Americans are with them on this. France, China and Russia are the permanent Security Council members who oppose war with Iraq. A vote against a war resolution by any of them would defeat the resolution. Please pass this on! This may be the last best chance of preventing war. ------------ Here is a sample letter, this one to the Chinese delegation: To: chinamission_un@fmprc.gov.cn Subject: Security Council Veto I urge your representative in the United Nations Security Council to veto any resolution sponsored by the United States which would authorize an aggressive war against Iraq by the United States and any "coalition of the willing." As a citizen of the United States of America, I am appalled by the recent actions taken by the government of the U. S. with regard to Iraq. While ignoring completely far greater threats to world peace and security, the Bush Administration has itself become the greatest threat to peace, all in the empty name of ridding the world of a dictator, which previous U.S. governments supported. Please veto the forthcoming U.S. resolution to authorize war against Iraq; do not just abstain! Thank you. ************ Please forward this to everyone you can. The UN email addresses are below for the Security Council. This could really make a difference, we can help the world stand together for peace. This email is making the rounds all over the nation, send your emails and faxes today! Thank you.
