Many people in lower Manhattan evacuated their offices. “It brought back all the memories of 9/11,” a witnesss was quoted saying to the press. This event is especially troubling because several federal, city, and state agencies had prior knowledge that this event would take place but failed to alert the community." </div> http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=939 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=936 <div class="text blurb">Media Mouse blog cites "Afghanistan: Ending a Failed Military Strategy" and discusses opposition to Afghanistan Escalation.</div> Wed, 22 Apr 2009 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=936 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=938 <div class="text blurb">As part of national “Days of Action” 9/11 families, Military Families and Faith Leaders meet with Congressman Capuano to say “No Military Solution: Stop Escalation in Afghanistan”</div> Mon, 13 Apr 2009 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=938 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=935 <div class="text blurb">Robert Greenwald of Brave New Films, Terry Rockefeller of September Eleventh Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, and Kathleen Foster director of Afghan Women: A History of Struggle, and Sean Duggan of the Center for American Progress discuss the future role of the US in Afghanistan on GRITtv with Laura Flanders... </div> Tue, 07 Apr 2009 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=935 http://peacefultomorrows.org/article.php?id=934 <div class="text blurb"><SPAN STYLE="font-size: 144%;">Voices of Peaceful Tomorrows</SPAN> by Rita Lasar <BR> Dear President Obama, Let's get rid of the easy part first.
