Please post:

An emergency petition from citizens around the world to the U.N. Security
Council is going to be delivered to the 15 member states of the Security
Council VERY SOON.

 If hundreds of thousands of us sign, it
could be an enormously important and powerful message -- people from all
over the world joining in a single call for a peaceful solution.  But we
really need everyone who agrees to sign up today.  You can do so easily and
quickly at:    http://www.moveon.org/emergency/

The stakes couldn't really be much higher.   A war with Iraq could kill tens
of thousands of Iraqi civilians and inflame the Middle East.  According to
current plans, it would require an American occupation of the country for
years to come.  And it could escalate in ways that are horrifying to
imagine. We can stop this tragedy from unfolding.  But we need to speak
together, and we need to do so now.  Let's show the Security Council what
world citizens think.
