Stopping Yesterday's Wars Today and Tomorrow ...
[A.L.]'Though in 'Great' Britain [&UKo'GB&NI, OK?!] we have eleXeons only occasionally, in a trul[l]y [sp?] 'free and democratic' society, every day is a kind of 'election day' ...

Through our collected individual choices, our collected individual belief systems, our collected individual actions, we collectively drive our societies into the future ...

Recognizing that we are ultimately 'responsible' for the actions of our own country, anti-war groups such as Stop The War continue to promote domestic and foreign policies that place a priority on internationally-recognized principles.
