We Can Stop the War in Iraq [Translation: Possiamo Fermare la Guerra]

Peppe Sini, translated by Quentin Heath | Peacelink | December 4, 2002

"Prepare a campaign of mass-civil disobedience in defense of peace and the constitutional right to block the chain of command of the political and administrative power that would decide Italian participation in a war. Absolute clarity and discipline are also needed in the initiative: all who are involved should know perfectly well that the goals of the campaign are to be reached strictly through nonviolence; all should have participated in preparation, elaboration, and discussion; all should have participated in the meetings of preparation, explanation, and training; all are aware of the personal risks they run; all should be prepared to personally undergo retaliations and prosecutions; all, finally, are persuaded to act exclusively in a non-violent manner."

This website is a tribute to Why War?, one of the nation's first and most innovative post-9/11 student antiwar organizations. Born on October 22, 2001 at Swarthmore College, we were a handful of freshmen and sophmores who vocally opposed the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere. And now, seven years later, we are retiring this website as we focus our efforts on new directions. We hope that it continues to serve future activists and we remain confident that humanity is on the verge birthing a better world.
