Posters,
Flags and Pins
A new free poster from
Mennonite Central Committee will get you thinking about war. As technology
moves soldiers farther from the effects of their actions, war appears
to be clean and efficient, a targeted event. The fact is, war continues
to be about killing. It is not only the guilty who suffer, but the innocent
as well. To order your free copy, go visit this website:
www.mcc.org/peace/resources/poster2.html.
1-4 copies at no charge; 5 or more are $1 each.
