Stop Bush's Blitzkrieg on Iraq

online petition: Emergency Kit to Stop the War

Take a few precious minutes for something that should work - Uniting for Peace!

The the way the U.N. keeps the peace when a permanent member of the Security Council is an aggressor. Uniting for Peace (UN Resolution 377) empowers the General Assembly to call up peacekeeping troops, when the Security Council is blocked - as it has been for months. Because keeping the peace is the U.N.'s basic mission, the General Assembly can call on members within 24 hours "to take effective collective measures for the prevention... of acts of aggression."

It�s a last chance to save the children of Baghdad from the Mega-Terror of "Shock, Awe" and hundreds of thousands of horrible deaths.
