$80
BILLION MORE FOR WAR
Which
brings the total up to nearly
$300 billion so far – and that's just the money we know
about. You can bet there's plenty of "off
the books" spending that it would take three congressional
committees and a couple of subpoenas to find out about.
We,
on the other hand, don't require that much. All we're asking
for is $60,000.
It
takes that much to run this Web site every quarter: and
– believe me – there are no frills. Not a one. Unlike
the U.S. government, however, we don't coerce the money
out of you: Antiwar.com
depends on your voluntary tax-deductible contributions
to keep going.
Take
a good long look at your tax bill and think of where it's
going: to an unjust war and a grinding military occupation
that are draining our moral credibility as well as our purses.
You don't have much say in how your tax money is spent,
but you can make a decision that will make it possible for
antiwar voices to be heard: by making a tax-deductible contribution
to Antiwar.com today.
We
can't hope to match the resources of the War Party: they
have access not only to the U.S. Treasury, but to the war
chests of big corporate and mainstream "philanthropic"
donors. They have the Big Media, as well as columnists
on the government payroll. They have the Washington
think tanks
where the scheme to conquer Iraq was cooked up. They have
billions at their disposal, and they're spending it to keep
the tom-toms for war beating ever louder and more insistently.
Iraq has only whetted the War Party's appetite for conquest:
they're looking to Iran, Syria, and beyond.
Against
this well-funded Goliath, Antiwar.com is an under-funded
David with a very well-aimed slingshot – but we need you
to keep us going. We manage on a shoestring budget, but
we depend on you – our readers – to make sure the string
doesn't break.
It
comes down to this: would you rather give your hard-earned
money to the government, which will spend it on the implements
of war – or do you choose to make your
100 percent tax-deductible contribution to Antiwar.com,
which is fighting to prevent the War Party from winning
the battle for public opinion?
The
choice is yours to make, and we're asking you to make it
today. We'll be asking all this week. Because Antiwar.com
is needed – now, more than ever – it's urgent that we make
our fundraising goal this year. Only you can make it possible
for us to continue our work – by clicking here.
