Emergency Zoom Meeting with Peace Action
What a time we are in. Israel's illegal attack on Iran, sparking a new war, in a region that can ill afford it, challenges peacemakers everywhere. Israel's aim appears to be not only torpedoing the US-Iran nuclear negotiations that had been scheduled for Sunday in Oman, but also regime change in Iran, and distracting from the ongoing genocide in Gaza and clampdown in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
Many organizations are putting out statements and action alerts, here is Peace Action's statement released last night (June 12) and published by Common Dreams.
Here is an excerpt from today's action alert (June 13) from NIAC, the National Iranian American Council:
Tell your Member of Congress to stand up for NO war with Iran: instantly email them here or make a call with this script.
Share this action alert on social media asking others to do the same.
There are "No Kings" protests happening nationwide on Saturday to condemn President Trump’s assault on American democracy (find one here).
Bring a No War With Iran sign with you - print or make your own!
Post and amplify your signs and the protests with the hashtag #NoWarWithIran and #NoBanNoBombs to put this dangerous escalation in the spotlight and demand Congress to act
Here is an article, Timely Lessons for Keeping People Safe in the Streets, published by Waging Nonviolence, with peacekeeping guidelines for the No Kings protests and beyond. Be safe, vigilant, and aware.
Plan to join us Monday night to take stock of the situation and share our actions and advocacy goring forward.
