Try to stand or get involved with this very dedicated local group.
It's cold and inconvenient, but consider these statistics:
Iraq's Shocking Human Toll: About 1 Million Killed, 4.5 Million Displaced,
1-2 Million Widows, 5 Million Orphans

Subject: REMINDER - Fri., Feb 20, 4pm to 6pm Iraq Moratorium 'Stand' - Come
and show Eau Claire you want our troops OUT of Iraq
The Lord give you peace! (Greeting of St. Francis of Assisi)
As-Salaamu `Aleykum
Come for as short or long as you'd like, between the hours of 4pm and
6pm. DRESS WARMLY. We will be standing on the corner of Bracket Avenue
and Business US Hwy 53 (right next to Jimmy Woo's). If at all possible,
bring a sign (small or large). Show Eau Claire that we want to bring an
end to this war. Hope to see you there!
Whether you can come or not, PLEASE consider calling your federal
Wisconsin Senators and your Representative and letting them know you
want them to bring our troops home from Iraq! Please know that the
current Status of Forces Agreement between Iraq and the U.S. does NOT
prevent the U.S. from giving Iraq one-year's notice that we are
withdrawing all combat forces. To the best of my knowledge, the
following phone numbers are accurate:
Russ Feingold's La Crosse office ph#: (608) 782-5585
Russ' Washington D.C. office ph#: (202) 224-5323
Herb Kohl's Eau Claire office ph#: (715) 832-8424
Herb's Washington D.C. ph#: (202) 224-5653
Ron Kind's Eau Claire office ph#: (715) 831-9214
Ron's Washington D.C. ph#: (202) 225-5506
If Ron Kind is not your representative, you can find your
Representatives at: http://www.house.gov/writerep/ (once you get to the
web page of your Representative, you should be able to find one or more
phone numbers there for your Representative.

The U.S. military's use of depleted uranium in it's ammunition
in the Iraq war and other wars is similar to unleashing a dirty bomb
nuclear war against innocent civilians.
Contact your your Senators and House Representatives to put a STOP to
using depleted uranium in military munitions!
