Fellowship of Reconciliation
The news of the day has been unbelievable. Again our headlines read about the numbers dead and the numbers wounded. Again commentators and talk show guests speculate about motives and reasons...

Well said. And my response to the college student -- one should ALWAYS question the choice to resort to war. And one can support American troops and their families without supporting the war. Indeed, they are also casualties of this war.

For those of us who do "take" this lesson meaningfully (and we are too few), it is important that we then "send" what we have received. So, let me also say, "pray for peace, preach peace, practice peace." Amen, may it be so...

In this historical moment when Iran is under international pressure for its nuclear program, isn’t it best to be united as Iranians for Iran. Wouldn't be better, regardless of whom we support; Principlist or Reformist, agree on one thing and that is the fact that Iran needs to be united. ...

The Fellowship of Reconciliation is delighted to announce Abdulsattar Younus, a member of the board of directors of the La'Onf network of Iraqi nonviolence communities, will be giving a presentation and allowing time for a Q&A with the community.

La'Onf was the 2009 winner of the International Pfeffer Peace Prize, awar...ded to Mr. Younus on Sunday, October 11, 2009 to honor those around the world working for peace and justice.

La'Onf is an inspiring Iraqi network composed of organizations and individuals with different ideological and political backgrounds, gathering around the idea of non-violence as the most effective way to struggle for an independent, democratic, peaceful Iraq. La'Onf is neither a political party nor an organization. It is a free gathering of people that believe in a humanitarian, non-violent response to conflict. La'Onf refuses occupation and war as a way to build democracy and establish rule of law, even when it is presented as the only possible option.

Please be our guest. Come hear and speak with Abdulsattar Younus. To learn more about La'Onf, see their website [www.laonf.net].

For more information or questions about the event, please contact FOR Event Coordinator Mary Heckler at 845-358-4601 Ex. 32, or by email at mheckler@forusa.org.
