ABOUT CATHOLICS FOR AN END TO THE WAR IN IRAQ
When President Bush led our country into War in 2003, he did so against the advice of Pope John Paul II, and the Christian mandate to use force only as a last resort. More than four years and thousands of lives later, the wisdom of our Holy Father is painfully clear. In this spirit it is time for U.S. Catholics to stand and be counted as a powerful voice for a new Iraq policy.
Catholics for an End to the War in Iraq is a national movement of Catholics who are advocating immediate action to end U.S. military action in Iraq. We call on our leaders to follow a three point plan for success:
Catholics for an End to the War in Iraq is a project of Catholics United, with support from NETWORK, a National Catholic Social Justice Lobby, Pax Christi USA, and Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good.
