I was referring to this deployment when I spoke during our last general body meeting. This is nothing new, they've been doing this for the last week or so. This, in my opinion, does not constitute "ground troops" involvement. The troops that are on the ground now are simply preparing the terrain for the deployment of ground troops, which will probably be green berets. I'm sorry this is so confusing, but that's the nature of the situation. Most newspapers are reporting today's news as "preparation for ground war," not the actual start of it. I would hold off on this one for now. Thanks, x September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

From: X Date: Friday, January 11, 2002 2:05 PM To: XXX Subject: Did you all see this? Dear Friends, Forwarded to me as I forward it to you. X ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ CNN:  AMERICAN MORNING WITH PAULA ZAHN Explosive New Book Published in France Alleges that U.S. Was in Negotiations  to Do a Deal with Taliban Aired January 8, 2002 - 07:34 ET PAULA ZAHN, CNN ANCHOR: Time to check in with ambassador-in- residence, Richard Butler, this morning. An explosive new book published in France alleges that the United States was in negotiations to do a deal with the Taliban for an oil pipeline in Afghanistan. Joining us right now is Richard Butler to shed some light on this new book.  He is the former chief U.N. weapons inspector. He is now on the Council on Foreign Relations and our own ambassador-in-residence -- good morning. RICHARD BUTLER, FMR. U.N. WEAPONS INSPECTOR: Good morning, Paula. ZAHN: Boy, if any of these charges are true... BUTLER: If... ZAHN: ... this... BUTLER: Yes. ZAHN: ... is really big news. BUTLER: I agree. ZAHN: Start off with what your understanding is of what is in this book --  the most explosive charge. BUTLER: The most explosive charge, Paula, is that the Bush administration -- the present one -- just shortly after assuming office, slowed down FBI investigations of al Qaeda and terrorism in Afghanistan in order to do a deal with the Taliban on oil -- an oil pipeline across Afghanistan. ZAHN: And this book points out that the FBI's deputy director, John O'Neill, actually resigned because he felt the U.S. administration was obstructing... BUTLER: A proper... ZAHN: ... the prosecution of terrorism. BUTLER: Yes, yes, a proper intelligence investigation of terrorism. Now, you said if, and I affirmed that in responding to you. We have to be careful here. These are allegations. They're worth airing and talking about, because of their gravity. We don't know if they are correct. But I believe they should be investigated, because Central Asian oil, as we were discussing yesterday, is potentially so important. And all prior attempts to have a pipeline had to be done through Russia. It had to be negotiated with Russia. Now, if there is to be a pipeline through Afghanistan, obviating the need to deal with Russia, it would also cost less than half of what a pipeline through Russia would cost. So financially and politically, there's a big prize to be had. A pipeline through Afghanistan down to the Pakistan coast would bring out that Central Asian oil easier and more cheaply. ZAHN: (UNINTELLIGIBLE) as you spoke about this yesterday, we almost immediately got a call from "The New York Times." BUTLER: Right. ZAHN: They want you to write an op-ed piece on this over the weekend. BUTLER: Right, and which I will do. ZAHN: But let's come back to this whole issue of what John O'Neill, this FBI agent... BUTLER: Right. ZAHN: ... apparently told the authors of this book. He is alleging that -- what -- the U.S. government was trying to protect U.S. oil interests? And at the same time, shut off the investigation of terrorism to allow for that to happen? BUTLER: That's the allegation, that instead of prosecuting properly an investigation of terrorism, which has its home in Afghanistan as we now know, or one of its main homes, that was shut down or slowed down in order to pursue oil interests with the Taliban. The people who we have now bombed out of existence, and this not many months ago. The book says that the negotiators said to the Taliban, you have a choice. You have a carpet of gold, meaning an oil deal, or a carpet of bombs. That's what the book alleges. ZAHN: Well, I know you're going to be doing your own independent homework on this... BUTLER: Yes. ZAHN: ... to see if you can confirm any of this. Let's move on to the whole issue of Iraq. The deputy defense secretary, Paul Wolfowitz, at one time was considered one of those voices within the administration... BUTLER: Yes. ZAHN: ... that was pushing for moving beyond Afghanistan. He seemed to back off a little from that yesterday. BUTLER: Yes. ZAHN: What do you read through the tea leaves here? BUTLER: A very interesting report that the administration will focus on the Philippines, Yemen, Somalia as places where there are al Qaeda cells. But the word Iraq wasn't used by the man who was the chief hawk -- used as a, you know, as a future target. So what I interpret from that is this: That very likely our allies have been saying to us, this is too hard. This is really serious. Be careful. Saddam is essentially contained at the moment. Don't start, you know, a bigger problem either in the Arab world or in the coalition by going after him. And Wolfowitz, it seems, has probably accepted that. ZAHN: A quick thought on the Israelis intercepting this latest armed shipment? What that means? You've got to do it in about 15 seconds. BUTLER: It's extraordinarily serious, because it seems to have been tied to Yasser Arafat himself. It needs to be further investigated, but you know, Paula, the potentiality that this could once again prove an impediment to resume peace negotiations is really quite serious. ZAHN: Thank you as usual for covering so much territory. Richard Butler, see you same time, same place tomorrow morning. BUTLER: (UNINTELLIGIBLE). ZAHN: We appreciate your insights. *************** "Who are we calling terrorists here?  Outsiders can destroy airplanes and buildings, but it is only we, the people, who have the power to demolish our own ideals." --Barbara Kingsolver **************** September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

He later wrote to Hugh Brock, editor of Peace News, explaining the genesis of his idea in greater, more personal depth: "I was in despair. Deep despair. I drew myself: the representative of an individual in despair, with hands palm outstretched outwards and downwards in the manner of Goyas peasant before the firing squad. I formalised the drawing into a line and put a circle round it." "X added his own interpretation of the design: 'the gesture of despair had long been associated with the death of Man and the circle with the unborn child.'" -fp- _______________________________________________ discuss@madpeace.org mailing list http://lists.OpenSoftwareServices.com/mailman/listinfo/madpeace-discuss September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

Folks:    Just wanted to let you know that I have talked to the reservations person for Memorial Union, Union So., and the Red Gym.  If we are sponsored by a student organization on campus, we can use spaces in any of those facilities without charge.  The person I originally spoke to hadn't mentioned that as an option.    I also contacted X of the UW Greens, and the Greens are willing to be the student organization on campus to "sponsor" MAPC events.  If we can target a few dates that might work, I can check on accomodations.  We could have used Tripp Commons Saturday, but not until 2:30p.m..  It would be nice to be able to plan without weather concerns, but then we need to estimate approximately how many people may attend in order to reserve enough space.  Maybe we could reserve Tripp commons and spill out onto  the terrace if the weather permits...  It would also be great to use Peace Park for some shorter events (due to cold.)  With the planning committee considering it's future, we could show them it can be put to good use as is.    I will also ask the DJ's at WORT to announce the cancellation whenever there is an opportunity Thursday- Saturday.    For those who posted signs, it might be a good idea to tack a bright-colored note about the cancellation, or just write on the original poster.  Hopefully not too many will actually venture to the mall Saturday, especially if the weather is discouraging.    X, I will volunteer to share representing the arts & cultural committee with X.  Sorry we ran into this snag just when you had a lot of other things going on.

September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Educating the public needs to be our number one priority right now, given just how small a minority the anti-war movement is.  MAPC should be disseminating information and analysis on the widest possible basis, and using that information to help bring people into the organization and establish our identify in the community.  As X said at the student teach-in, we need to be thinking in terms of 10,000 copies of our literature, not a few hundred.   Following discussions with the South West Asia Information Group, I am proposing that MAPC & SWAIG publish a joint monthly newsletter.   The newsletter would be published as an 8-page newsprint tabloid.  MAPC would be responsible for content of pages 7 and 8, plus about a quarter of page one.  SWAIG would be responsible for the remaining content.    SWAIG's content would be similar to what was contained in its initial tabloid -- anslysis of the region, the war, and U.S. foreign policy.  MAPC's content would be a calendar of events, information from the various Working Groups on their upcoming activities, reports on past activities, and other content designed to motivate readers to get involved.  Solicitation of donations would also be included.   Approximately 10,000 copies of each issue would be published, requiring a major effort at distribution through literature tables, bundles left at stores, co-ops, etc., passing out at events or to pedestrians, and perhaps even door-to-door distribution in selected neighborhoods.   The printing cost for 10,000 copies of a 8-page tabloid would be approximately $500.00, using the non-union printer that SWAIG used for its tabloid.  (I would prefer to transfer the project to a union shop, preferably Port Publications in Port Washington; this may require an adjustment in either the budget or number of copies.)  This cost would be covered by MAPC.   I would expect that the newsletter would generate $100 to $200 per month in new donations, based on people clipping a donation request coupon.  Another option would be to sell advertisements in the newsletter to supportive businesses, co-ops, and organizations.  (SWAIG opposed this option, based on possible conflicts with the Madison Insurgent.  I will be meeting with the Insurgent collective to discuss whether they would in fact have objections to this.)   If finances do not permit monthly publication, Plan B would be for alternating between the tabloid and a 2-page, 8.5 by 11, smaller circulation, newsletter containing only MAPC organizational info.   Because MAPC's contribution to the content would reflect the activities of all of the Working Groups, I believe that the newsletter should be coordinated at the CC level.  (I ran this past O&E, who agreed.)  Options for filling the newsletter editor position would include:   (a)  One of the existing CC members could take on this project.   (b)  A new at-large CC position could be created   (c)  A Newsletter Working Group could be created; or   (d)  A volunteer who is not officially on the CC. but is willing to attend CC meetings, could be located.   X September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

SPONSORS: [Alders names here.] WHEREAS, a disastrous humanitarian crisis is underway, with an estimated 7.5 million people in Afghanistan facing critical food shortage or outright starvation this winter; and WHEREAS, 70 percent of these people are women and children, and the UN estimates 400,000 children under five will likely die this year, an increase of over 30 percent from last year; and WHEREAS, food aid shipments have been disrupted due to security concerns around U.S. military actions in Afghanistan; and WHEREAS, the aid agencies active in the region, including the Nobel laureate Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Oxfam International and the World Food Program have stated that the U.S. food drops can not meet the increasing and urgent need for assistance; and WHEREAS, Madison now participates directly and indirectly in U.S. military efforts through many channels, including the federal taxes its citizens pay, and through its citizens' participation in the armed forces; and WHEREAS, the Mayor and Common Council are appalled at the mass starvation that will result from these actions to which they are a party if the situation is not speedily addressed, and also appalled at the dishonor such an outcome would be for the victims of the terrorist attacks of September 11th; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Mayor and Common Council urge a resolution to the situation that minimizes loss of life; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT humanitarian concerns must now be a top priority for U.S. policy toward Afghanistan, especially as there exists a narrow window of opportunity for supplying food to the region's population before winter makes this difficult or impossible; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Afghanistan's neighbors should immediately reopen their borders to allow for the safe passage of refugees, and the international community must be prepared to contribute to the economic costs incurred by the flight of desperate Afghan civilians; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States must actively support the work of various agencies to deliver assistance in Afghanistan, particularly through overland truck convoys, and support safe humanitarian access to affected populations, in partnership with humanitarian agencies in quantities sufficient to alleviate a large scale humanitarian catastrophe; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States should contribute to efforts by the international community to provide long-term, sustainable reconstruction and development assistance for the people of Afghanistan, including efforts to protect the basic human rights of women and children; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States should support democratic processes in Afghanistan leading to a government which represents all its people, including women.

X -----Original Message----- From: X [mailto:X]On Behalf Of X Sent: Friday, October 26, 2001 9:06 AM To: X Subject: Re: [MAPC-policy] revised city resolution Beautiful!  Thanks for your work on this, X.  The "Madison now participates directly and indirectly in U.S. military efforts" is a good way to change the wording to state why Madison has the right to comment on these matters, while not expressing support or acceptance for the bombing.  One more suggestion, below. I apologize if this conversation happened at our last meeting (which I missed) but have we discussed at all what sort of changes we'd support and which ones we wouldn't?  For myself, I think it's important that we insist that no language supporting the bombing be added.  There's other possibilities we should think of as well, though they'll likely come up in our conversations with alders. Also, when we all agree on the wording, we should give this a run by the whole MAPC, with an intro on why we feel the humanitarian angle is the best and most productive one to take with the City Council.  I'm expecting we'll hear some disappointment from people who want us to push a politically unviable stop the bombing resolution.  But maybe I'm wrong on that (it's happened once or twice before, you know). -X > Dear Policy Committee, > > Due to my own error, I have so far failed utterly at getting myself on > the policy e-mail list.  However, 30 minutes ago I discovered the list > archive on the web site, and now I am up-to-date! > > Thank you for your comments!  Wonderful! > > I incorporated your suggestions.  More edits may be in order--feel free > to suggest more edits. > > After one more round, perhaps we can bring it around to alders--I'll > wait for the policy committee's OK. > > Below is the current draft.  Send me further suggestions for changes. > > Best Regards, > X > > ================================================================= > A RESOLUTION regarding the urgent need to provide emergency humanitarian > assistance and development assistance to civilians in Afghanistan, including > Afghan refugees in surrounding countries. > > > SPONSORS:    [Alders names here.] > > > WHEREAS,    a disastrous humanitarian crisis is underway, with an estimated 7.5 > million people in Afghanistan facing critical food shortage or outright > starvation this winter; and > > WHEREAS,    70 percent of these people are women and children, and the UN > estimates 400,000 children under five will likely die this year, an increase > of over 30 percent from last year; and > > WHEREAS,     food aid shipments have been disrupted due to security concerns > around U.S. military actions in Afghanistan; and > > WHEREAS,    the aid agencies active in the region, including the Nobel laureate > Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Oxfam International and the World Food > Program have stated that the U.S. food > drops can not meet the increasing and urgent need for assistance; and > > WHEREAS,    Madison now participates directly and indirectly in U.S. military > efforts through many channels, including the federal taxes its citizens pay, > and through its citizens' participation in the armed forces; and > > WHEREAS,    the Mayor and Common Council are appalled at the mass starvation > that will result from these actions to which they are a party if the > situation is not speedily addressed, and also appalled at the dishonor such > an outcome would be for the victims of the terrorist attacks of September > 11th; > > NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Mayor and Common Council urge a > resolution to the situation that minimizes loss of life; and > > BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT humanitarian concerns must now be a top priority > for U.S. policy toward Afghanistan, especially as there exists a narrow > window of opportunity for supplying food to the region's population before > winter makes this difficult or impossible; and > > BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Afghanistan's neighbors should immediately > reopen their borders to allow for the safe passage of refugees, and the > international community must be prepared to contribute to the economic costs > incurred by the flight of desperate Afghan civilians; and * in the previous clause, I would change to "...and the U.S. and other members of the international community must be prepared..."

Broken Arrow, Oklahoma School officials removed "God Bless America" signs from schools in fear that someone might be offended. Channel 12 News in Long Island, New York, ordered flags removed from the newsroom and red, white, and blue ribbons removed from the lapels of reporters. Why? Management did not want to appear biased and felt that our nations flag might give the appearance that "they lean one way or another". Berkeley, California bans U.S. Flags from being displayed on city fire trucks because they didn't want to offend anyone in the community. In an "act of tolerance" the head of the public library at Florida Gulf Coast University ordered all "Proud To Be An American" signs removed so as to not offend international students. I, for one, am quite disturbed by these actions of so-called American citizens, and I am tired of this nation worrying about whether or not we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on September 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans. However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled in New York and Washington D.C. when the "politically correct" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America. In fact, our country's population is almost entirely comprised of descendants of immigrants; however, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some native Americans, need to understand. First of all, it is not our responsibility to continually try not to offend you in any way. This idea of America being a multi-cultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language, and our own lifestyle. This culture, called the "American Way" has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom. Our forefathers fought, bled, and died at places such as Bunker Hill, Antietam, San Juan, Iwo Jima, Normandy, Korea, and Vietnam. We speak English,--not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society - learn our language! "In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some off-the-wall, Christian, Right Wing, political slogan - it is our national motto. It is engraved in stone in the House of Representatives in our Capitol and it is printed on our currency. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation; and this is clearly documented throughout our history. If it is appropriate for our motto to be inscribed in the halls of our highest level of Government, then it is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. God is in our pledge, our National Anthem, nearly every patriotic song, and in our founding documents. We honor His birth, death, and resurrection as holidays, and we turn to Him in prayer in times of crisis. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture and we are proud to have Him. We are proud of our heritage and those who have so honorably defended our freedoms. We celebrate Independence Day, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Flag Day. We have parades, picnics, and barbecues where we proudly wave our flag. As an American, I have the right to wave my flag, sing my national anthem, quote my national motto, and cite my pledge whenever and wherever I choose. If the Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. The American culture is our way of life, our heritage, and we are proud of it. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from. We are Americans, like it or not, this is our country, our land, and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion about our government, culture, or society, and we will allow you every opportunity to do so. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about our flag, our pledge, our national motto, or our way of life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great American freedom--the right to leave. It is time to take a stand!!! If you agree, pass this on to other Americans!! September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.

September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Hello, all in coordination.  Great stuff you've all been sending regarding what's going on for this week, and in general.  Exciting.  We are going forth with the November 30th event, and I'm going to bring each committee a "to-do" item, or a few, at the meeting on Sunday.  For now, I wanted to get you a quick outline of our plan so that you have something to print or distribute on the event, so your people know what they're doing these tasks for.  Attached is the "rough" flyer we're distributing.  We will be developing a nicer one when more of the acts, etc, are firmed up. Here is the basic plan for the event: --set up from 5-6 at Lapham Elementary School, East Dayton Street. (1045, I believe.) --Event from 6-9.  We are targeting families and "mainstream." the name of the event is "People for People, People for Peace." --Main focus on the event is the gathering of items and assembly of kits for refugees fleeing Afghanistan.  We are encouraging the donation of blankets, cash, and of school supplies for the "school kit" that the MCC distributes to refugee camps. --We will have live acoustic musical entertainment, and some kids acts --TBA. --We will have free refreshments, donated. --We will have booths with information and petitions, buttons for sale, canvasing materials, visuals on the refugees who we're helping.  (This is where most of your committees come in -- more info at the meeting) --We will have mural painting, on canvas.  Any ideas for where we could display the mural after it's done? --We will have the assembly and decoration of kit bags going on for kids to pitch in on, to engage them in helping the refugees.  We will put the school kit donated items inside... --From 9-10:30 or so, we will have break-down and delivery of goods to a local group who will be sending items to MCC in Indiana later that week. That's the overview.  Look forward to seeing you Sunday. X You Can Help Stop Terrorism Before It Starts! Terrorism is a tactic of desperate people. The Taliban was born and bred in the miserable refugee camps of Pakistan. Today 2 million more Afghanis are expected to join these camps and others like them in Iran. Will they too live for years in poverty, lacking food, shelter, medical care, schooling and hope? Will they become recruits for terrorism? Please join the Madison Area Peace Coalition for their holiday season People for People, People for Peace Event a celebration of giving, Friday, November 30, 2001, 6-9 p.m. Lapham Elementary School Come enjoy entertainment, refreshments, and the good spirits of giving people! Bring the whole family! Lots of fun stuff and important learning opportunities for kids! This event is free just bring your donations for the refugees in desperate need. We are gathering the following items to be sent to the Mennonite Central Committee, a well-respected charity that has been distributing to refugee camps for over eighty years. Clean Blankets Money donations, checks written to the Mennonite Central Committee Supplies for school kits for refugee children: #2 pencils crayons or colored pencils spiral notebooks, letter size erasers plastic rulers A Better Kind of Holiday Shopping! Give the Gift of Crucial Help to Desperate Refugees. Since the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, do you find yourself feeling less enthusiastic about buying and receiving holiday gifts? Does watching the plight of Afghani refugees make you want to share our relative wealth with the millions of people there who are in danger of freezing and starving to death? Come join us for this celebration of giving and help these people who are in such need. September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written.
