Sign petition against war with Iran
The press has reported that President Bush gave a "prepare to deploy" order to the nuclear-equipped aircraft carrier USS Eisenhower and its accompanying strike force. They are now headed for the Persian Gulf, just off the coast of Iran. This deployment could be the first step of planned military action against Iran.

As a first step in opposing this, please sign the petition, hosted by Just Foreign Policy and Peace Action, calling on our government not to attack Iran: http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/involved/iranpetition.html

That the United States could attack Iran is a serious threat. Some folks whose knowledge and experience command attention think a U.S. attack on Iran could be imminent. Indeed, Retired Air Force Colonel Sam Gardiner says a military operation has already begun inside Iran. "The issue is not whether the military option would be used but who approved the start of operations already," he says. U.S. warships are moving towards the region, and plans for air strikes and naval blockades have been updated, he has noted.

Please sign now and then forward this link to your friends: http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/involved/iranpetition.html

Thanks to those who take the time.
