A Global Appeal for 'No more violence!'
Deeply saddened by the suffering and deaths of thousands in New York, Washington and Pennsylvania, we, people
of many different backgrounds from around the world, join with millions of others to denounce these latest acts of
terror against innocent civilians. We believe that military retaliation in response to this mass murder will only
accelerate the cycle of fear, anger and violence.
We urge our political and religious leaders to heed our appeal for nonviolence. We will not be swayed by calls to
support further violence. We will respond to cries for revenge with caring, calm and reason. Violent retaliation and
war will only lead to greater losses of life. This, in turn, will only serve to breed more anger, hatred and terror.
Instead, we support the rule of international law. The perpetrators of these crimes, and all other crimes against
humanity, crimes against peace and war crimes, should be brought to justice. No individual, group or government
should have immunity from international law.
As we mourn for those whose lives were lost on September 11, 2001, we also mourn for all those around the world
dying from the violence inflicted by terrorism, war or the lack of food, medicine, water and housing.
Pledge of Nonviolence
Standing firmly together, we will embrace nonviolence to stop the cycle of violence from spiraling even further out
of control. We join in solidarity with others around the world to build our common security through disarmament,
dialogue and social justice -- not through violent attacks and military might.
We pledge ourselves to support nonviolence as the way towards a peace with justice.
