Dear MoveOn Peace campaign supporter,

President Bush wants another war on Iraq.

A huge number of Americans are passionately opposed to war, but if

Bush can secure other countries' support, he will attack anyway.

It's time to make your voice heard.

More than 200,000 Americans have already joined our online petition

opposing a war on Iraq. Now it's crucial for people worldwide to

speak up too. We'll take your message to national and world leaders.

Speak up at:

Nelson Mandela has called President Bush's attitude "a threat to world

peace," and has warned Bush that America risks destroying the United

Nations if it attacks Iraq without international support.

In Mandela's words, the push for war "is motivated by George W. Bush’s

desire to please the arms and oil industries in the United States."

Help prevent a war by joining hundreds of thousands of people speaking

out, at:

Your voice will make a difference. Thank you.

Sincerely,

P.S.: We are contacting you because a little more than one year ago

you joined hundreds of thousands of people worldwide in calling for a

peaceful response to the September 11th attacks on the United States.

That campaign, originally called 9-11peace.org, has now become part

MoveOn.org, one of the world's leading Internet-based civic and

grassroots advocacy organizations.
