All we are saying
IS
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."
Melody Beattie

Free at People For Peace


I have always loved to do research about any subject at all. It is the research that attracts my interest. Of course, when I chose to do the research for myself it is always about a subject that interests me. In this case I decided to see what was happening in cyberspace around the subject of PEACE - a subject which is very dear to my heart.




Vote for Mahatma Gandhi
in Time Magazine's 1999 pole for
"Man of the Century".


So here for your interest and enjoyment are the sites which I found to be most interesting. You will notice that some sites are better presented than others but, for me it is the content which is most important. Of course, if a site is both well presented and chock full of interesting, valuable information so much the better.

I have marked the sites with an " pointer" if they particularly appealed to me.
Your taste may be different so enjoy the ride.


And Now ...

International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War

IPPNW is a global federation of national physicians' organizations dedicated to safeguarding health through the prevention of war. Founded in 1980, IPPNW was an inspiration born of the Cold War. With the world divided into two militarized camps poised on the brink of nuclear war, a small group of Soviet and American doctors took a leap of faith. They put ideology aside to sound a medical warning to humanity: that nuclear war would be the final epidemic; that there would be no cure and no meaningful medical response.

In a world freed from the East/West conflict that once threatened global nuclear war, IPPNW continues to work for the elimination of weapons of mass destruction. Today, even conventional weapons can and do inflict indiscriminate damage upon civilian populations and the environment. For that reason, IPPNW, while still committed to working for the abolition of nuclear weapons, works for the prevention of all wars and to promote alternatives to violence and armed conflict.

We feel the rising tensions in the world today which can lead to the nuclear destruction of the planet. We are distressed by the increasing military presence and spending--and the decreasing commitment to human needs. Committed to nonviolent social activism and Jewish teachings, we are concerned with the problems facing the Jewish people and, indeed, all people.
