Logic doesn't seem to work - let's try thousands of bags of rice!

Logic doesn't seem to work - let's try thousands of bags of rice!

Logic doesn't seem to work - let's try thousands of bags of rice!

You will need:
4 oz (125g) of uncooked rice
1 small plastic bag (small freezer bag or sandwich bag)
1 sturdy C5 envelope or a small padded envelope
1 piece of paper
72p in postage - 2 first-class stamps plus 1
second-class stamp = 73p

Place the 4 oz. (125g) uncooked rice in the small plastic bag. Squeeze out the excess air and seal the bag. Wrap it in a piece of paper on which you have written,

"If your enemies are hungry, feed them. Romans 12:20.
Please send this rice to the people of Iraq; do not attack them."

Place the paper and bag of rice in the envelope or jiffy bag and address them to:

Rt Hon Tony Blair MP
10 Downing Street
LONDON
SW1A 1AA

Attach 73p in postage. Please post this TODAY: It is important to act NOW so that Tony Blair gets the letters ASAP.

In order for this protest to be effective, there must be tens of thousands of such rice deliveries to Downing Street. We can do this if you each forward this message to your friends and family.

nice idea, but did you need it 11 times?

it's a nice idea and I'll probably send one, but was it really necessary to post your idea 11 times?
