Over 40,000 people already chose to _click here to tell
Congress and the president not to attack Syria_
(http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=l3nf9tlWYVeFowPNCw3P6S5lvYAB+4QP)
.
Already it's making a difference. Our actions so far have helped compel
President Obama to seek Congressional authorization before any attack.
Now we have a week to work with. We start with a majority of the public
on our side. We have to hold off a flood of pro-war propaganda, and we have
to compel Congress to represent us. And we can do this.
The first step is to _click here and add your voice_
(http://salsa.wiredforchange.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=ZWgc1e1y6QpbXvUAbX9P6kt1sL+tNDOP)
.
Second, please forward this email to everyone you think might add their
voice as well.
Third, organize locally to pressure your Congress member and senators,
while they are in their districts and states this week, to commit to voting
"No" on a U.S. attack on Syria.
We who reject arguments for war are a majority now. We are a majority in
Britain, where Parliament has already voted "No." We are a majority in
Germany, which will not take part. We are a majority in France, where
Parliament will be heard from soon. And we are a majority in the United
States. _Let
Congress hear from you now!_

The terrible and widespread killing in Syria will become even more
terrible and more widespread if the U.S. military launches an attack. The
White
House has no proposal to win a war, only to inject greater violence into a
war, prolonging and escalating it.
Contrary to White House claims, Congress cannot authorize war and support
a peace process at the same time. Escalating the violence will block,
rather than facilitate, peace. Congress is going to have to choose.
Albert Camus summarized the choice now before us: "In such a world of
conflict, a world of victims and executioners, it is the job of thinking
people, not to be on the side of the executioners."
_Click here to oppose a military attack on Syria, and to urge Congress
and the president instead to work for a ceasefire, to pressure Saudi Arabia,
the Gulf states, and Turkey, to halt the flow of weapons, and to pressure
Russia and Iran to do the same._
