EMERGENCY FINANCIAL APPEAL  
11 January 2010

Dear Friend,

We are writing to ask to you to help our campaigning by  
donating to our emergency appeal. This month there are two  
events which should be high profile for the anti-war movement.

We know that Tony Blair is due to appear before the Chilcot  
inquiry one day in the two weeks from January 25th. We are  
organising protests on this day, including a naming of the  
dead from the Iraq war while he is giving evidence,  
demonstrations, street theatre and other events. We are sure  
that many people will want to mark this day and make it a  
'judgement day' for Blair. It is unlikely, given the lack of  
scrutiny shown by the inquiry so far, that he will face tough 
questions. Even more reason why the movement should make its  
feelings and those of millions in Britain very clear.

In addition, on January 28th Gordon Brown is hosting a 
conference on Afghanistan in London, attended by Hillary  
Clinton, Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel and Hamid Karzai,  
which will be aimed at supporting the escalation of the war  
there. We, along with CND and European peace activists, will  
be protesting there as well.

All these activities cost money, and we rely totally on  
donations from our supporters and affiliated organisations. We 
are calling an emergency January appeal to ensure that these  
demonstrations are a success, and that the anti-war movement  
can make its voice heard as loudly as ever.

Please give as generously as you can.

Best wishes for a peaceful new year.
