" THIS MONTH’S LETTERS: STOP THE WAR AGAINST IRAN! It’s hard to believe that Bush, Cheney, and Rice could be contemplating another war, this time against Iran, but that’s the reality. One point that organizers have emphasized is that we should demand diplomacy right now. That’s the key word for peace activists. Here are some suggestions modified from our friends from the Iran Working Group in Albany:
If you have 15 minutes, call or write to Sen. Hillary Clinton, Sen. Charles Schumer, and your Representative. Tell them to insist on diplomacy, not war, with Iran.
