"We, the women of the United States, Iraq and women worldwide, have had enough of the senseless war in Iraq and the cruel attacks on civilians around the world. We've buried too many of our loved ones. We've seen too many lives crippled forever by physical and mental wounds. We've watched in horror as our precious resources are poured into war while our families' basic needs of food, shelter, education and healthcare go unmet. We've had enough of living in constant fear of violence and seeing the growing cancer of hatred and intolerance seep into our homes and communities."
Join NOW activists together with CODEPINK, Women Say No To War, and a delegation of Iraqi women on Wednesday, March 8. We will rally at the Iraq Embassy and then march to the White House. Signatures to the call for peace will be delivered. If you haven't already, sign the People's Petition for Peace.
