no war!
Kill Rock Stars joins millions of other Americans (you know who you are!) in our condemnation of "H. J. Res 114 - Authorization for the Use of Military Force Against Iraq" and our pledge to resist and protest the impending stupid and immoral invasion of Iraq. Please let us know what is happening in your town to stop or protest this war, and we will post information we receive here, so some of your neighbors can find out and help.

Women in Black vigils were started in Israel in 1988 by women protesting
against Israel's Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. Women in Black
has developed in the United States, England, Italy, Spain, Azerbaijan
and in FR Yugoslavia, where women in Belgrade have stood in weekly vigils

Humanitarian agencies need your help!
"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the
country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag
the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or
a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people
can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All
you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater
danger."
