I received this today from a friend. If you agree with this, copy and paste it into an e-letter, and send it off as per requested in the body of the note. I've sent mine... but we will need more. Beginning of Transcript:
Subject: Takes a minute, lasts a lifetime...
US Congress has authorized the President of the U.S. to go to war against Iraq. Please consider this an urgent request.
UN Petition for Peace
Stand for Peace. War is NOT the Answer.
Today we are at a point of imbalance in the world and are moving toward what may be the beginning of a Third World War. If you are against this possibility, the U.N. is gathering signatures in an effort to avoid a tragic world event.
Please COPY (rather than Forward) this e-mail in a new message, sign at the end of the list, and send it to all the people whom you know.
If you receive this list with more than 200 names signed, please send a copy of the message to:
usa@un.int or president@whitehouse.gov
Even if you decide not to sign, please consider forwarding the petition on instead of eliminating it.
End of transcript:
If you disagree with this (as evidenced by many other's reactions upon opening the original message today at the Concept Forge), then you should ask yourself, "Why is it important that America start this war?" If this happens, it won't be something that we can just ignore. We won't get to silently endorse this, while we sit around our houses and watch reruns of Friends. |
