I certainly share your perspective o...Hey Douglas-<br /><br />I certainly share your perspective on the dominance of the violence-industrial complex and the need to do something about it. However, I hope you will consider revising your language a bit. The expression "fight for peace" is often used by hawks who champion the use of force to achieve peace, for the U.S. at least. I suggest using something such as "work for peace" or "build peace" instead. Campaigning for the Department of Peace falls into this category of building a culture of peace and providing our decision makers with nonviolent alternatives. The subtle shift in language can help us all start being part of the change we wish to see in the world.<br /><br />Peace,<br />VBGViolence B.
