Declaration of Peace Sets Sept. 21-28 National Actions

Peace Movement Sets Sept. 21 Deadline for US Plan to Chart New Course on Iraq – Thousands to Take Action if Plan Not Established

Declaration of Peace...

The Declaration of Peace is a nationwide campaign to establish by September 21, 2006 a concrete and rapid plan for peace in Iraq, including:

A prompt timetable for withdrawal of US troops and closure of bases

A post-occupation peace process for security, reconstruction, and reconciliation, and

A shift of funding from war to meeting human needs

Thousands of people across the U.S. have signed The Declaration of Peace pledge, a commitment to take nonviolent action if Congress does not pass legislation establishing this comprehensive plan for peace in Iraq by September 21, The International Day of Peace.

Over the next two months, Declaration signers in Congressional districts across the country will call on their elected representatives to establish this new course. At the same time, they will prepare to take action if this plan is not established by September 21.

Thousands have pledged to engage in nonviolent civil disobedience in Congressional offices and at the US Capitol the week of September 21-28, just days before Congress adjourns for the fall elections. Communities throughout the US will hold demonstrations and rallies in support of a comprehensive plan. The Declaration of Peace campaign will continue after September if no comprehensive plan to end the occupation is in place.

Who’s Involved:

More than one hundred religious, antiwar, peace, and justice organizations are participating together in the Declaration of Peace movement – including United for Peace and Justice, a coalition with 1,400 member organizations.

Declaration of Peace signers are taking action to secure bi-partisan support for a comprehensive peace plan. This grassroots campaign will play a critical role in making this fall’s midterm Congressional elections a referendum on the war.

Full details, with a complete list of sponsoring organizations, planned actions, organizing resources, and how to get involved, can be found at www.declarationofpeace.org.

Declaration of Peace

by Pat Elder Friday, Jul. 21, 2006 at 2:06 PM

This is the greatest idea that the peace movement has ever come up with. I will be going to Washington in September.
