Although the war has started this does not mean we give up.

In the last 3 days, more than 27 thousand people from 119 countries have sent letters to their UN ambassadors asking them to support a "Uniting for Peace" resolution in the UN General Assembly to make clear the world's opposition to a devastating and illegal war in Iraq waged by the United States and a small group of allies.

The Uniting for Peace resolution has stopped wars before, even after they've broken out. The United Nations should not accept being relegated to a strictly humanitarian role when it could still play a powerful role in stopping this conflict.

Take action now by sending a letter to the UN.

UN General Assembly President Jan Kavan of the Czech Republic said he
thought it "very likely" that a special session would be called as early as next week. If no session were called or a resolution defeated, "it would be a very clear victory for the United States," he said.

"Nations opposed to war will probably muster a majority in the assembly," according to Reuters.
