- From here you click the link to go onto the cyber sit-in tools.
We'd like people to open the tool page, and then just leave it running for as long as you can. The more people take part simultaneously across the globe, the greater the chance of success. Therefore please tell all your friends, post around email lists, and let anyone you know who has Internet access know about this page.
As the Bush/Blair web sites will disseminate the dynamic duo's official justifications for the needless attack on Iraq, our aim for this action is to degrade, or possibly close down, their web sites. But this will happen ONLY if tens of thousands of people a day take part in the protest action. If not enough people take part, then nothing much will happen -- so it's essential that as many people as possible use the protest tools as often as possible.
At the moment only the web-page based action tool is online. Later this evening you'll hopefully be able to download the Java program tool that
you can run on your computer, and that is far more effective than the web page version.
Peace 'n' love

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government, nor are we for
this party nor against the other but we are for justice and mercy and
truth and peace and true freedom, that these may be exalted in our nation,
and that goodness, righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace and unity
with God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burroughs, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')
