VOTE FOR PEACE

Antiwar.com deserves your vote of confidence, and now is the time to cast your ballot.

For over a decade, we've been campaigning for a peaceful, noninterventionist foreign policy. We opposed the destructive, dangerous, and – as we know now – disastrous invasion of Iraq, and warned that Syria and Iran would be next on the War Party's agenda. We said at the time that there were no "weapons of mass destruction" – except, of course, in the U.S. arsenal.

Events proved us right on all counts – and we did it on a shoestring.

But we need that shoestring to keep going. When you make your tax-deductible donation to Antiwar.com, you are, in effect, voting with your dollars – casting a ballot for peace. Yes, we need to take our foreign policy back from the warmongers and special interests – but before that can happen, before peace candidates can make a real impact, the American people must be educated and the War Party's lies exposed.

That's the reason for Antiwar.com, and that's where you come in. We must raise $60,000 this week just to keep up our present level of operation. Your 100% tax-deductible contribution is more important than ever – and now, with war clouds gathering on the horizon, is the time to give.

Vote for peace – contribute today.


In the first three days of our drive, 452 of you gave a total of $24,120. We need to pick up the pace to reach the goal of $60,000 to keep Antiwar.com running for the next quarter. Please help.
