GOOD NEWS FOR PEACE


THERE'S STILL TIME TO STOP A U.S.-LED WAR ON IRAQ
The Bush administration has sought a U.N. mandate for war, due in large part
to mounting domestic and international pressure. Despite U.S. pessimism,
Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein has agreed to U.N. weapons inspections, which
haven't found anything significant so far. It's thus still possible that war
on Iraq can be averted.

In response to the threat of war, the global peace movement continues to
grow. Massive demonstrations continue to be held around the world. Some
activists have traveled to Iraq to act as observers and human shields. A
peace group in Canada has even committed to sending a group of citizen
weapons inspectors to the U.S., holding the country accountable for it's
double standards about weapons of mass destruction.
