Res. 294 did nothing to promote peace between Israelis and Palestinians; if this administration were serious about peace then they would invest in  groups like the ISM, which risk their lives for Palestinians and Israelis. <br><br> * Tell Congress that while you think H. Res 294 was a colossal waste of your tax-dollars that you would be supportive of a Resolution that actually supported peace and human rights in the Occupied Territories.   <br><br> * The ISM is a group made of Americans and other internationals in the  Occupied Territories teaching Palestinians nonviolent resistance in the face of a  <br>  <br> brutal Israeli apartheid government.  They risk their lives to protect innocent  Palestinians from violent Israeli settlers and the IDF.  A more noble  <br>  <br> organization could not exist and we should be supporting the ISM instead of thugs like  Ariel Sharon. <br><br>  <br>  <br> Please choose the appropriate letter to send!
