Monday, October 9th 2006
International Day (John Lennon's Birthday) to wear red to signify "stop the bloodshed."
National Call-in Day: Tell the Senate to Give Cluster Bombs the Boot!
Monday, March 30th 2009
On March 30, tell the Senate to give cluster bombs the boot!
Toll-free number: 1-800-590-6313
When nearly 100 nations gathered in early December to sign a global treaty banning cluster bombs, the U.S. was conspicuously absent. And yet, the U.S. has been the world’s biggest user of these weapons, which always end up killing more civilians than soldiers.
President Obama and Congress can fix U.S. policy. In fact, they have already started. In March, Congress passed a law permanently banning exports of nearly all U.S.-made cluster bombs.
Now we need Congress to act to prevent any further use by U.S. troops. Call your senators on Monday, March 30 and ask them to co-sponsor the Cluster Munitions Civilian Protection Act, S. 416. This legislation would prohibit the U.S. from using any cluster bombs that leave behind an unacceptably large number of landmine-like “dud” cluster submunitions—small bombs that keep on killing. It would also prohibit any use of these weapons in areas where civilians are normally present—like cities and villages. Increased support for this legislation in the Senate will show President Obama that he has the public’s backing to sign this treaty and send it to the Senate for ratification.

ANYTOWN, USA, InternationalRSVP • BRING OUR TROOPS HOME! NATIONWIDE PETITIN CAMPAIGN - YOUR HELP IS NEEDED
Multi-Day Event
EVERY DAY UNTIL WE HAVE ACHIEVED OUR GOAL
Greetings All,
I was pleased to find this organization's site because of the important campaign I am undertaking. I feel that this forum is viewed by intelligent, like-minded, progressive individuals who may be interested in helping out in a truly worthy cause. I am starting a nationwide, non-partisan petition campaign which will serve to pressure U.S. lawmakers to put an end to the Iraqi war. The petition will support a responsible and gradual withdrawal of the brave men and women of our military from the unjust and catastrophic war currently being prosecuted in the sovereign nation of Iraq. This petition campaign, once competed, will reach all 535 members of the United States Congress, as well several other influential politicians and government officials, including the President and Vice President of the United States. This is NOT about making a political statement; it is about making an AMERICAN statement.
There is no reason why over 3,000 young American soldiers should have made the ultimate sacrifice and lost their lives for a war based on faulty intelligence, lies, personal vendettas, and neo-conservative ideology. And there is certainly no reason why we should continue to offer up the lives of Americans in fighting an Iraqi Civil War. To date, it is estimated that as many as 6 million Americans have lost a close friend or family member in this conflict. It is time to end the bloodshed.
For this petition campaign I seek to secure 20 people per state to spearhead the signature gathering effort in their area. Each person will be responsible for collecting only 100 valid signatures. Obviously, if you are able and willing to gather more than this amount it will only help even more. At this rate, once the petition is successful and complete, it will contain over 100,000 signatures. This is a massive number of signatures, which cannot be ignored, and will serve to show just how many ordinary, patriotic Americans, regardless of political or moral alignment are against this horrible war. I am seeking assistance only in gathering the signatures in your area and forwarding your completed petition to me. I will not only be a fellow petitioner, but will be coordinating the national petition effort and seeing that the completed petition makes its way to the right people. I will be sending each states individual petition, comprised of a minimum of 2,000 signatures, to the respective state’s U.S. Senators and Representatives. I will then compile the national petition, signed by over 100,000 Americans, and forward it to several powerful lawmakers and influential politicians and government figures, including, but not limited to, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Minority Leader Trent Lott, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, Minority Leader John Boehner, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, Vice President Dick Cheney, and of course President George W. Bush.
Due to the urgency of this issue, I am undertaking a rapid and ambitious time table for completion of the petition campaign. We can obviously begin collecting signatures immediately, but I would like to have all petitioners confirm their participation no later than February 10, 2007. Additionally, my goal is to have completed and compiled the national petition and be able to mail copies to the appropriate recipients on March 20, 2007, the four year anniversary of the beginning of the war.
If you have any questions about the petition, wish to become a signature gatherer or make a donation to our effort, please e-mail at bringourtroopshome@yahoo.com as soon as possible. Please title the e-mail "Petition Campaign" and include in the body of the message your name, age, contact information, and city and state where you will be collecting signatures, along with any questions you may have. All petitioners will receive a "Petition Kit" as e-mail attachments which will include petition sheets, instructions on how to properly conduct the petition and collect signatures, what to do with your completed petition, my contact information and a draft of the letter which I will include along with the completed petitions once sent to the recipients. Also, anyone who wishes to help out but cannot commit their time and effort as a petitioner may also make donations, and can obtain information via e-mail. If you think about how many pages of copies will have to be paid for and how much postage will cost to mail out all of the completed petitions, the costs I will incur will be astronomical. I am taking the initiative to conduct this petition because it is something I care deeply about and strongly believe in and the financial cost to me will be relatively small in comparison to the cost incurred by those who have died or lost a friend or family member in this conflict.
I will be posting this on several other websites, forums, message boards and blogs to garner maximum exposure and reach as many people who can help as possible. I will gladly accept recommendations on sites on which to post, or for that matter any recommendations or advice on the campaign in general. I thank you for your time in reading this post and for your anticipated assistance in the petition campaign.
Sincerely,
Justin Leshynski

Yearly Event
Join a global network of Concerts for Peace: The Music for Peace Project, March 31 - April 2, 2006
The Music for Peace Project is a global effort to fill the world with music as a call for peace.
Since its inception in 2003, the annual 3-day Music For Peace Project has sponsored 251 concerts in 30 countries on every continent. Founded by the Musicians' Alliance for Peace (MAP), an international community that promotes empathy, ethical thought and critical social involvement through music, each Music for Peace Project has been shared with audiences as diverse as the music itself.
The Music for Peace Project 2006 continues this tradition. By coordinating a vast number of concerts worldwide between March 31 - April 2, 2006, the Music for Peace Project 2006 will bring popular and media attention to international peace efforts while building a global community of socially conscious artists.
To help us reach our goal this year of 500 concerts spanning every continent during the weekend of March 31 - April 2, 2006, we are asking musicians worldwide to perform a concert in the name of peace, or to dedicate a pre-existing concert to the Project. All one must do is complete a simple, 30-second online form -- any musician can participate. To join, and learn more, please go to http://www.m4p.org/join.html or write MAP at info@m4p.org.
Music has the power to inspire compassion and foster understanding between cultures while deepening the bonds that form our communities. Please consider joining this international, non-partisan call for peace and help to create a global community of musicians united in the active quest for peace.
In Peace,
The Musicians' Alliance for Peace

online, InternationalRSVP • Missed Opportunities: Iraq and the Balkans
Yearly Event
Missed Opportunities: Iraq and the Balkans
TWO FOCI
The focus of this course is contrafactual in the sense that it will discuss what could have been done at the relevant time to apply the principle of peace by peaceful means. It is also future-oriented since we will work on what can still be done to move the two conflict formations in the direction of peace. (Not everything that could have been done earlier can still be done today).
DIAGNOSIS
Naturally, we will start out by analysing the two conflicts, look at similarities and differences. We will contrast real reality with virtual-media reality. How did major players see the conflicts?
DE FACTO PROGNOSIS AND THERAPY
Next we will go through the various things that were done by various actors in the international so-called community, allegedly to solve conflicts. Was that they main goal and if not, what other real interests were at play?
What did they expect to be the consequences of their interventions- threats, negotiations, bombings, UN and other missions, humanitarian aid, political pressue, sanctions, etc. Why did this not lead to peace in any real sense but only to stopping the wars? Were some actors peace-effective? Were others actually violence-promoting?
MISSED OPPORTUNITIES
What should and could international actors have done instead had they made a different diagnosis and prognosis and had real interests in conflict-resolution? Like in most other parts of this course we will,when it comes to the Balkans, deal mainly with Croatia and Kosovo+Macedonia - all the others can't be handled in any detail.
WHAT TO DO TODAY AND TOMORROW?
How can we characterise the situation in the Balkans and Iraq today - strong and weak aspects of the interventions. What to learn?
Brainstorms - based on theory, knowledge and creative ideas - on what we think can still be done tp promote peace in these areas? Strategies- who can do what and who cannot do it anymore?
End note:
- Both these conflict formations are extremely complex, both are focal points for world (dis)order; they have far-reaching consequences way beyond themselves (and we'll touch upon that too);
- Participants should not enroll because they think they will know everything about both; that is impossible. If at the end of the course they can just begin to feel the complexities and see some options and strategies for peace and justice there - and thus have acquired some tools to go on much deeper on their own - then the course will have achieved its purpose.
Literature
Will mainly be drawn from a few books/chapters and the marterials available at www.transnational.org and links from it.

Friday, September 21st 2007 9:00am
For several years, local groups and grassroots organizations have been opposed to the intervention of multilateral agencies in India's economy and development. At various stages, there has been strong project-based opposition to the World Bank in different parts of the country. Consequently, in the last few years the Bank has modified its lending patterns, concentrating more on policy-based lending, as against project-based lending. The retrogressive impact of the Bank's intervention -- at both the project and policy level -- is being felt throughout the country by almost all marginal and impoverished sections of society. Given the need to examine the evidence of increasing damage many groups have come together to organize a People's Tribunal on the Impact of the World Bank Group in India.

THE MYSTERY OF PEACE
Peace is the result of human freedom and fundamental relationship of each person with God, with others and with all of creation. "the unity of the holy spirit" (Is 11:6-9). Because peace is not of man, but from God (Phil 4:7-20). So when the world comes to the actions that promotes peace, there must also be a moral act of mercy (Matt 23:23).
MERCY! THE PERFECT SACRIFICE OF PEACE (Matt 9:13)
A mercy is not a part of political or social act of peace like: Tourism, United summit meetings, stockpiling arms, nor by acquiring more material goods.
A mercy is a moral act of forgiveness, to being merciful to others through our actions, our words, and our prayers. Works of mercy includes feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, visiting the sick, correcting the sinners, comforting the prisoners, and forgiving wrongs willingly.
Peace demands deeds of mercy and it is an unquestionable proof of act for peace (Mat 9:13).
So let the world acts of mercy for peace, to set the prisoners free on the day of peace (Ex21:1-2). For we are slaves and prisoners in this wicked and sinful world.
For mercy is the ordinance which we shall set before peace, and the world shall obtain complete peace on that day of mercy (Dt 15:4-10, 5:15, 15:11-18, 15:1-4).
A deeds of mercy, the sacrifice of peace (ls 58:6, Phil 4:17-20), for the tender mercy of the Lord surpasses all our needs in peace. Mercy that I may take pleasure in it and grant you peace says the Lord (Luke 6:36-38,Haggai 1:8).
PRAYER
Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase your mercy in us that in difficult moments we may not despair nor become despondent,but with great confidence submit ourselves to your holy will, which is love and mercy itself. Amen.
Please when you receive this letter, have it read also in the world organization, and say to the world, "see that you fulfil the ministry which you have received in the Lord."
Grace be with you.
I, Afam Henry Obi, a member of divine mercy prayer society of st. michael's catholic parish Asata, Enugu state of Nigeria. For more info about mercy, visit www.divinemercy.org.

November 9, 2008: Join the Global GRACE Day
GRACE is the power that may overcome all violence because it is at home in the hearts of all human beings. (Sabine Lichtenfels)
The Global GRACE Day is a special initiative by a growing movement of individuals all over the world. The movement cannot and should not be identified with a specific group or organization; it is an expanding movement of those who have started to develop the quality of GRACE in their hearts. You will recognize them not by their signs and signals, but by the way they behave, act and talk.
Summer University Tamera: Global Grace Village - Creating Models for a Future without War
Wednesday, July 29th 2009 July 29
Imagine, all media all over world would bring the message:
WAR IS OVER!
Soldiers and paramilitaries, banks and corporations, whaling ships and timber companies – all of them could no longer fight. Even love partners would no longer be able to hurt each other. What would we do? Do we see the possibility of a future without war? Do we know the vision of a world, where human beings are able to trust and love each other without fear?
After three years of "Monte Cerro" experiment, the Peace Research Center Tamera invites peace workers worldwide to the Summer University "Global Grace Village - Creating Models for a Future without War", at July 29 - August 7, 2009. We want to use these ten days to envision a healthy planet. With global crises overlapping, it is becoming evident that we are close to facing a paradigm shift; so let's get together for a think-tank and the vision of a future worth living!

Monday, March 27th 2006 08H00
Peacekeeping operations, stability and development are top priority for South African Armed forces and the US, Europe and the rest of Africa alike. Peacekeeping is becoming more and more important as South Africa plays a vital role in African missions, mandates, deployment and restructuring.
The core of peacekeeping operations in Africa is no longer about the deployment of armed forces, but the focus is shifting towards a more integrated approach including reconstruction, development, stability, civilian involvement and humanitarian aspects. As the demand, advancement and application of peacekeeping evolves worldwide, especially in Africa and enormous funding is being poured into local research and development, testing and training.
IQPC’s Peacekeeping, Reconstruction and Stability Operations in Africa Conference will bring together parliaments from European, African and North American countries, representatives of governments, and the military from all three continents and international and non-governmental organisations. The conference will provide an opportunity for detailed discussion of past and present peacekeeping operations in Africa.
