One voice
Posted by knitforpeace on March 1, 2008
With thanks to my virtual buddy Tikkunknitter for calling my attention to this, may I call your attention to the One Million Voices project promoting peace in the Middle East? Here’s the One Voice Mandate:
- Recognize the right of both peoples to independence, sovereignty, freedom, justice, dignity, respect, national security, personal safety, and economic viability;
- Implement concrete confidence-building measures that will improve the lives of the Palestinian and Israeli people, including ensuring freedom of movement for ordinary civilians and fostering education against incitement on both sides.
- Immediately commence uninterrupted negotiations until reaching an agreement, within the timeframe of one year, for a Two-State Solution, fulfilling the consistent will of the overwhelming majority of both populations.
Peace is the exercise of common sense.
Today’s knitted garment – Interweave Knit’s Sienna Cardigan in Madil Loden (in case you’ve noticed a lot of Madil Loden in my life, let me just say that my LYS had a clearance sale last year. I stocked up.) I just love the lacy cable.
