We are made up of friends and neighbors who believe that a better world is possible. The group formed in January 2003 and we currently have over 700 members. We believe that war is not the answer and that it is important to voice our dissent concerning the disastrous wars that the US is currently waging. We invite you to join us at the events listed here as we advocate for peace and justice.BNPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12958108560069258904noreply@blogger.comBlogger21100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3062652934103413721.post-84661065981519679452011-01-08T13:42:00.000-08:002011-01-17T16:24:30.132-08:00<iframe src="http://www.bethlehemforpeace.org/events.htm" height="750" width="625"> &lt;a&gt;A <br />link to the page&lt;/a&gt; </iframe><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3062652934103413721-8466106598151967945?l=bethlehemforpeace.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BNPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12958108560069258904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3062652934103413721.post-77551980129134816802011-01-02T08:39:00.000-08:002011-01-08T14:04:01.762-08:00<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">2011 will be a challenge for peace activists.&nbsp;&nbsp; The carnage continues and the military industrial complex is firmly in control of the mass media.&nbsp; What can we do?&nbsp; We need to be out in the streets.&nbsp; Weekly vigils&nbsp; are a excellent way to make sure our neighbors are reminded of the wars.&nbsp; We need to continue our effort to inform the public of the true cost of the wars. AS the economy worsens, many young people feel increasing pressure to join the military.&nbsp; We&nbsp; must make sure they are well informed before they enlist.</span></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;National efforts are also extremely important and the April 9 Anti-war March in NYC, sponsored by United National Anti-war Committee (UNAC) and&nbsp; a growing number of other local and national organizations will be an important step in our efforts to keep the public informed and involved in the effort to stop the wars and bring our troops home.War is not the answer!</span></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3062652934103413721-7755198012913481680?l=bethlehemforpeace.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BNPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12958108560069258904noreply@blogger.com0
