<Dear Colleagues:<br>
We are proud to announce the release of The Nonviolent Peaceforce
Feasibility Study, one of the most comprehensive examinations of third
party nonviolent intervention ever produced. You may access it on our
website:
<a href="http://www.nonviolentpeaceforce.org/" eudora="autourl"><font color="#0000FF"><u>www.nonviolentpeaceforce.org</a></u></font>,
at the top of the home page. It is available in both HTML and for
download in the more readable PDF formats.<br>
We hope this study advances all of our work in creating nonviolent
approaches to peacemaking and peacekeeping. The document provides
tremendous background information to the Nonviolent Peaceforce as we
develop our pilot project. We also make it available to any of you to aid
in your peacemaking work or in your further research. Feel free to
download, use or quote any portion of it. Please use proper attribution.
<br>
A very skilled team, directed by Christine Schweitzer, worked over one
year in producing this research. Major contributors included: Donna
Howard, Mareike Junge, Corey Levine, Carl Stieren and Tim Wallis. Without
Mark Sherman, Judy Miller and Sister Pat Keefe the study would not have
been put on the web. The research was conducted with support from the
United States Institute of Peace.<br>
Comments should be directed to Christine XSchweitz@aol.com<br>
We appreciate your continued interest and support.<br>
With hope and resolve,<br>
David Hartsough Mel Duncan <br>

Now - isn't this a wonderful movement - with added thought - we who are
'space-openers' are part of this 'Nonviolent Peaceforce' - how does that
feel? <br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>I love the small
synchronicities--this arrived in my e-mail, side-by-side<br>
with your message:<br><br>
<<I've been thinking about this idea and am passing it along: it's
now been<br>
proven scientifically that prayer can heal from a distance, whether
the<br>
person being prayed for knows it or not. I'm wondering why we don't start
an<br>
army of lovers and draft people into the service of prayer, to release
the<br>
fear from all those<br><br>
who believe violence can bring any kind of good. I think it could work- a
24<br><br>
hour a day novena to heal the hardened hearts. we could be anywhere and
do<br><br>
our part, just adding our prayers in when we can. we could end this
war.<br><br>
Rita Mae Brown says an army of lovers cannot fail. i believe
her.>><br><br>
