Kathy Kelly - Voices for Creative Nonviolence Walk Chicago to the Twin Cities
Atmosphere of the walk
Greetings are casual but throngs of people are giving thumbs up. but we need to get people to do more to stand up for the cause.
Effects of the economic sanctions on Iraq
economic sanctions actually strengthened Sadaam but were murderous abuses to the poor and the powerless.
Iraq Peace Team
How she got involved in Iraq and how the Iraq Peace Team formed
What are the solutions to the problems with sanctions without going to war?
We need to make sure that all peoples of tall he countries are educated as much as possible. We also need to make sure that the people can count on us rather than the dictators. Not impose ourselves as the new dictators.
Why they created the voices of creative nonviolence
they wanted to remain dedicated to nonviolence. iraqis are just as bad off as an american colony with the puppet regime in place now than they were under the sanctions. they were fined for bringing relief supplies to the iraqi people
