On Wednesday, April 16, 2008, the United States
Supreme Court ruled that lethal injection, which is the method of execution used inmany states, including Georgia, is constitutional. The State of Georgia is set to resume executions immediately. Troy Davis, who is almost certainly innocent of the murder of which he was convicted, could be executed at any time. Please help. Go to Amnesty International's action alert and send their letter to the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles.
IMPORTANT: If you have friends or family in Georgia, even if they believe in the death penalty as punishment for murder, ask them to help prevent the execution of an innocent man. Please contact anna(at)charlestonpeace.net for sample letters to send to the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles.

This is the Iran I know and love and it is a beautiful country of
beautiful people. Please take a look before it is utterly destroyed by
the neocons and Bush (Israelis, Saudis, etc.) Please forward this wide
as this will become an historic statement.
