We want peace among
all people. We support and would take part in peaceful
alternatives to respond to September 11 and other
conflicts.
We condemn acts of terrorism, including state terrorism,
and we mourn its victims. We support an international
effort to bring the perpetrators of all terrorist
actions before the International Criminal Court.
We demand fundamental changes in U.S. foreign policy:
from militarism and global domination to cooperation
among all nations in creating a healthy, peaceful
and sustainable planet where the dignity of every
person is respected. We therefore oppose the U.S.
making war in Afghanistan, Iraq or elsewhere.
We adhere to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights,
which among other things prohibits unjust, inhumane
and illegal detention. We oppose any secret military
tribunals and any legislation that limits civil liberties.
We Demand that our government recognize in practice
the worth of all people and work to eliminate ethnic
and belief-based discrimination, profiling, and racism.
We work for a more equitable distribution of the world's
wealth and disapprove the policies of welfare for
and protection of multi-national corporations at the
expense of the working people.
We implement practices of peace and justice as we
conduct our meetings, sponsor events and educate ourselves
and the public. Peace leads to peace.
