People For Peace

No War In Iraq
We Support Peace

We, as patriotic Americans, oppose on moral grounds the United States taking further military action against Iraq now. The Iraqi people have already suffered enough through more than two decade of war and severe economic sanctions. Military action against the government of Saddam Hussein and its aftermath could result in a large number of civilians being killed or wounded, as well as increasing the suffering of multitudes of innocent people. It would also result in many American young men and women losing their lives in an unnecessary and illegitimate war.
The pre-emptive use of military force by the United States to deal with problems of weapons proliferations, as serious as they may be, establishes a dangerous precedent, particularly for other nations that feel threatened by the weapons capabilities of their neighbors. Furthermore, unilaterally overthrowing enemy governments heightens concern in other countries about American respect for their integrity as nations, as well as international law.

U.S. military action at this time has great potential to further destabilize the region. It is likely tat international support for the war on terrorism will erode if the United States attacks Iraq. Militants in Arab and Islamic majority countries would seize the opportunity to incite people against not only the United State but also against governments that cooperate with the U.S. An invasion of Iraq would divert attention from the need to seek ways to reduce international terrorism and would retard efforts to restore stability in Afghanistan.
We expect our government to reflect the morals and values we hold dear by pursuing peace, not war; by working with the community of nations, not by overthrowing governments by force; and by respecting international law while holding in high regard all human life.
