"I apologize if someone has already mentioned this. Here is the text from Downsizer Dispatch:
Subject: Stop Congress from fomenting another war
We rarely send you action items on Saturday. We're doing so today because the House appears likely to vote on a bad resolution early next week. If you oppose starting a war with Iran then we must act now to oppose House Concurrent Resolution 362.
This resolution has 169 co-sponsors, including 77 Democrats and 92 Republicans. The resolution calls on President Bush to . . .
*Create an international blockade of Iran to prevent it from importing the refined gasoline it needs to run its economy
*Subject all cargo entering or leaving Iran to stringent inspections
*Tighten economic sanctions against Iran
*Violate international treaties by prohibiting Iranian officials not involved in negotiating the suspension of Iran's nuclear program from travelling abroad.
If another country took such actions against us, we would consider it an act of war. In addition, passage of this resolution would end negotiations with Iran in Baghdad that the administration has recently signaled it was prepared to resume.
House Concurrent Resolution 362 is a major step toward war. It would reduce the opportunity for a negotiated settlement with Iran, and even worse, President Bush could take this resolution as a sign that he has Congressional support to attack Iran before he leaves office.

Spread the word that Americans don't want another war. Sanctions don't work (just ask Cuba and Iraq).
There is another Senate Resolution in the pipeline with 26 co-sponsors, so this needs to be nipped in the bud..."
