We give ordinary people
the tools to change the world.
About Peace Action

Peace Action, the merger of SANE and The Nuclear Freeze, has effectively mobilized for peace and disarmament for nearly fifty years.

As the nationâ€™s largest grassroots peace group we get results: from the 1963 treaty to ban above ground nuclear testing, to the 1996 signing of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, from ending the war in Vietnam, to blocking weapons sales to human rights abusing countries, and eliminating funding for new nuclear weapons, Peace Action and its 100,000 members have been, and continue to be, at the forefront of the international movement for peace.

At Peace Action we believeâ€¦

â€¦that war is not a suitable response to conflict.

For nearly 50 years Peace Action has worked for an environment where all are free from violence and war. We understand that long standing global conflicts require long-term solutions, and that US foreign policy has a lasting effect on the world. We are working to promote a new US foreign policy that is based on peaceful support for human rights and democracy, reducing the threat from weapons of mass destruction, and cooperation with the world community. We are against pre-emptive war, and call for a full withdrawal of American troops from Iraq.

â€¦that every person has the right to live without the threat from nuclear weapons.

There are still over 30,000 nuclear weapons in the world. The US and Russia still have thousands of nuclear weapons, on hair trigger alertâ€”ready to launch in minutes. While the Cold War may have ended, the nuclear threat has not. The only way to ensure that nuclear weapons will never be used - whether purposefully, or accidentally - is global abolition. The U.S. must lead the way to a safer world by taking our weapons off hair trigger alert, halting our research and development of new nuclear weapons and disarming and demilitarizing our warhead stockpile of over 10,000 nuclear warheads. We can reduce the threat to the world posed by nuclear weapons, but we must start by getting serious about getting rid of our own weapons of mass destruction.

â€¦that America has the resources to both protect and provide for its citizens.

As the Pentagonâ€™s budget soars to $400 billion, 17% of American children live in poverty. Basic infrastructure is crumbling, school are using outdated textbooks, and millions of Americans are without basic health insurance. 

For what the US will spend on the War in Iraq, 26,701,621 children could have attended a year of Head Start, we could have built 1,815,194 additional housing units for the poor, we could have hired 3,493,706 additional public school teachers for one year, and we could have provided 9,772,998 students four-year scholarships at public universities(source â€“ National Priorities Project). We believe that these are priorities that should come before war.

What we do at Peace Actionâ€¦

We are the nationâ€™s largest grassroots Peace network, with over 28 state affiliates, and over 100 local chapters. We organize our grassroots network to place pressure on Congress and the Administration through write-in campaigns, internet actions, citizens lobbying and direct action. Through a close relationship with progressive members of Congress, we play a key role in devising strategies to move forward peace legislation, and, as a leading organizing member of United for Peace and Justice and the Win Without War coalition, we lend our expertise and large network to achieving common goals. 

Through our Peace Voter awareness campaigns, we inform citizens about their choices for both local and national campaigns, by highlighting different candidatesâ€™ stances on issues relating to peace. Our annual Congressional Voter Guide gives credit to those in Congress who voted for a peaceful future, while holding accountable those who voted for larger Pentagon budgets, spending tax dollars on nuclear weapons, and voted for wars of aggression and occupation. 

Given the right tools, ordinary people can change the world.

At Peace Action, we recognize that real change comes from the bottom up and we are committed to educating and organizing at the grassroots level.

When you join Peace Action you become part of an effective citizen movement. We work hard to keep you informed through our quarterly newsletter and publications about the most important news and issues in the peace movement. As a member you can join our Action Alert Network which allows citizens throughout the country to rapidly respond to important legislation online. As a member, you can become an important part of a fast growing national movement, and help us change the direction of our country and the world towards a more sustainable, peaceful future.

Together, we have the power to change the world.

Support Peace.

		<description>Suppose we&#039;ve got a suspected terrorist in custody and he&#039;s lying to protect other terrorists plotting on killing thousands of innocents.  Wouldn&#039;t that be obstruction?  Would that justify torture?  What if his name was Libby and he was protecting the Bush cabal - the biggest threat to our Republic from within that we&#039;ve ever faced?

And I don&#039;t for a minute think that the rightwingnuts won&#039;t use that interview to bolster their own false argument that &quot;no crime was committed.&quot;
I, too, was uncomfortable watching that interview, because despite her saying that Libby IS GUILTY, what carried over was she thinks he is a &quot;nice guy&quot; and she hopes he doesn&#039;t have to be punished for his crime by going to prison.</description>

		<description>Regarding the Marc Rich Pardon:

Clinton was set up by Israel, period.

Monica was a Mossad &quot;Swallow&quot; on a mission to entrap the President - and Israel employed its own (COMVERSE) wiretapping technology to tap phone sex between Lewinski and the President.  GHW Bush was in on it too, and that is where, when the alliance between the Bush Cabal and the NeoCONs (Likud/David Rockefeller) was solidified.

Another &quot;Swallow,&quot; Chandra Levy, hooked up with Intelliegence Committee member Gary Condit for the purpose of compromising him in order to ensure that he went along with the 9/11 plans.  Levy told her parents that she had some &quot;big news&quot; to share with them when she flew home to visit.  She was killed days later, before she got the chance to reveal what she knew.

As Chandra Levy was signing off of her computer for the very last time prior to going to &quot;meet someone,&quot; at that very moment, Gary Condit and Dick Cheney were together in Cheney&#039;s office - the perfect alibai.

Remember that it was revealed that AT&amp;T had been conducting illegal warrantless wiretapping on the government&#039;s behalf in the months PRIOR TO 9/11?  Was it these taps that picked up the leave phone call with her parents, or Irael&#039;s Mossad?  Either way, the results were the same.  Remember that in the months preceding 9/11, the ABLE DANGER intelliegence program was shut down?

Clinton was set-up by GHW Bush and Israel - and the PNAC plan was implemented, with 9/11 as the pretext - the &quot;New (Richard Pearle) Harbor.&quot;

Ken Lay, GHW Bush, Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney were co-conspirators in the FAKE California energy crisis, designed specifically to establish fear of energy shortages in the minds of the citizens of the United States to create the mindset that has led to our acceptance of TREASON, TYRANNY AND TORTURE in return for oil.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Regarding the Marc Rich Pardon:</p>
<p>Clinton was set up by Israel, period.</p>
<p>Monica was a Mossad &#8220;Swallow&#8221; on a mission to entrap the President &#8211; and Israel employed its own (COMVERSE) wiretapping technology to tap phone sex between Lewinski and the President.  GHW Bush was in on it too, and that is where, when the alliance between the Bush Cabal and the NeoCONs (Likud/David Rockefeller) was solidified.</p>
<p>Another &#8220;Swallow,&#8221; Chandra Levy, hooked up with Intelliegence Committee member Gary Condit for the purpose of compromising him in order to ensure that he went along with the 9/11 plans.  Levy told her parents that she had some &#8220;big news&#8221; to share with them when she flew home to visit.  She was killed days later, before she got the chance to reveal what she knew.</p>
<p>As Chandra Levy was signing off of her computer for the very last time prior to going to &#8220;meet someone,&#8221; at that very moment, Gary Condit and Dick Cheney were together in Cheney&#8217;s office &#8211; the perfect alibai.</p>
<p>Remember that it was revealed that AT&amp;T had been conducting illegal warrantless wiretapping on the government&#8217;s behalf in the months PRIOR TO 9/11?  Was it these taps that picked up the leave phone call with her parents, or Irael&#8217;s Mossad?  Either way, the results were the same.  Remember that in the months preceding 9/11, the ABLE DANGER intelliegence program was shut down?  These wiretaps likely revealed that the 9/11 operation was being compromised, and Cheney ordered it shut down.</p>
<p>Clinton was set-up by GHW Bush and Israel &#8211; and the PNAC plan was implemented, with 9/11 as the pretext &#8211; the &#8220;New (Richard Pearle) Harbor.&#8221;</p>

		<description>It&#039;s no surprise that MSNBC would find a juror who thinks Libby should be pardoned. She said she could picture him at a rodeo in his cowboy hat. She felt sorry for him. Doesn&#039;t matter--just so long as she followed the rules and convicted him. She may be gullible, but she followded the rules.</description>

Prosecutor says lies shielded Cheney

By R. Jeffrey Smith / Washington Post

Hey Exlaxley,
Its very possible the crimes your boy was trying to conceal (obstruction of justice = trying to impede,  or hinder possible criminal prosecutions or conceal possible criminal activity) were far more serious than any tax cheat. 

Do everything you want to try and minimize the current criminal record of this administation and its cohorts, but that record will soon grow longer, and not only that, but anyone whose in touch with reality (this may not include people like exlaxley and pudrick1) knows that anyones whose been convicted of a felony has almost certainly commited numerous other felonies that slipped under the radar.</description>

He was also charged with 51 counts of tax fraud and with running illegal oil deals with Iran during the hostage crisis&lt;/em&gt;

sayeth exlaxley

so your obviously going to condemn convicted multibillion  dollar embezzler ahmed Chalabi, one of Scooter&#039;s cohorts, and anyone involved in selling arms to Iran secretly during the Iran-Contra scandal  as well right?

dude, your desparate, pathetic attempts to somehow equate the minor scandals of Clinton with Bush&#039;s world altering fraud and criminality that led to the iraq war and all its consequences is beyond laughable. &quot;we know where the weapons are&quot;. &quot;we know without a doubt that saddam has weapons of mass destruction&quot; &quot;saddam has involvement with the people who did 9-11&quot; &quot;saddam support al queda&quot;.

 if lying to trick the american people into supporting a war isnt an impeachable offense, it should be.

no one but you and your 20 percenters is doing anything but laughing at your feeble comparisons. it must be comforting for bush to know that no matter how low bush and his cohorts sink, he will always have people like you desparately trying to delude themselves into thinking hes a good man. soon your ilk will be known as merely &quot;percenters&quot;.. not even &quot;twenty percenters&quot;</description>

thats about 1/10th of  money that the person who provided us with most of the information for the iraq war embezzled. (Ahmed Chalabi)

Rich was convicted of embezzling. Libby was convicted of preventing the truth from coming out about the fraudulent use of information to go to war. Which one is worse is highly debateable, considering that this war has spawned an amount of embezzling that dwarf&#039;s  Rich&#039;s. 9  BILLION went missing on Bremer&#039;s watch alone...</description>

		<description>Exley: &quot;Well, if President Clinton can pardon Marc Rich, who was a fugitive from justice, faced charges far more serious than Libbyâ€™s misdeeds..&quot;

What a steaming pile of nonsense. Tax evasion is more serious than obstructing the investigation into the outing of a secret CIA asset???!!! You&#039;re just plain crazy, Exley. Partisan hackery has clouded your senses.

Let&#039;s talk pardons. The Prime Minister of Israel personally asked Clinton to consider pardoning Mark Rich. Rich was guilty of tax evasion. George HW Bush pardoned a convicted heroin smuggler 2 years into a 55-year sentence for bringing heroin into the country. He pardoned three indicted co-conspirators from Iran-Contra who were scheduled to testify under oath about his part in the conspiracy. He pardoned Armand Hammer, President of Occidental Petroleum after he was convicted of illegal campaign contributions to the Repub party. Your &quot;liberal press,&quot; the NYT, published one article on Bush&#039;s pardons and 17 on Clinton&#039;s pardon.</description>
