08/05/06 Group Effort Can Help End Iraq War, by Joy First

Dear Editor: With so much war and suffering in the world, it may feel like there is nothing we can do to make a difference. However, there is a national campaign called the Declaration of Peace that is gaining momentum around the country calling on Congress to end the war in Iraq.

Individually, our government is ignoring us, but we can come together in one loud voice and let our government know we want an end to the illegal and immoral war in Iraq now. Please join thousands of people around the country and sign the Declaration of Peace at www.declarationofpeace.org and lend your voice to our cry for peace across the United States.

We are organizing locally in Madison and invite you to join us in working for peace. We cannot let the war in Iraq continue. We have the power to stop it, but it will take all of us working together. Please go online and sign the Declaration of Peace today or call 608-222-7581 to find out how you can be involved.
