The long months of arduous negotiations attests to the diff 
iculty of
achieving compromise among adversaries. But at the end of this process, nobody
has been killed, no communities have been obliterated, nor have billions of
dollars been squandered on instruments of death. The lesson is clear. When the
political will is there, diplomacy can succeed.
United for Peace Justice views this agreement as the beginning, not the end of a path to peace. Iran’s potential capacity to develop nuclear weapons in the future has been understandably perceived as threatening. But much more immediately threatening are the existing arsenals of the nuclear-armed states: the U.S., Russia, Britain, China, France, Israel, India, Pakistan,and North Korea. We believe that the survival of humanity require new commitments to eliminate them all.
For the immediate future, we recognize that irresponsible voices in Congress will do everything possible to kill the agreement with Iran.United for Peace and Justice is joining together with other national organizations in a Stop the Iran War Coalition to build a firewall of support for this deal. This will be an ongoing effort that will extend over the coming months.
For now you can help by signing and circulating this petition: http://www.stopwarwithiran.com?source=ufpj

Our years of protest have helped to bring this historic deal to completion. Let’s make sure it passes.
