About the choices:
- Mass civil disobedience in one or more large cities. One example might be what San Francisco did at the start of the war. Another more recent but smaller scale effort is the No War No Warming action that took place on October 22.
- A national march in Washington, DC, such as January 27, 2007.
- Counter-recruitment (or "truth in recruiting") and support for military resisters.
- Challenging war profiteers, such as Blackwater and Chevron
- Connecting ending the Iraq war to other issues, including Iran, global warming, etc.
- Local monthly actions, such as the Iraq Moratorium
- Congressional pressure, including bird-dogging, sit-ins, visits and call-in days.
- Pressure presidential and congressional candidates leading up to the 2008 elections
- Targetted boycott (e.g., gasoline)
Disclaimer: As with all online polls, this poll is far from "scientific." Readers should not assume that United for Peace and Justice or any other group will make decisions based on this poll. You may also be interested in reading the Comprehensive Organizing Program for UFPJ that was adopted at the 3rd UFPJ National Assembly last June.
Still, we hope that our poll sparks interest and we encourage everyone to take the poll and post their thoughts to this forum topic. (NOTE: To post to the forum, you will need to login or register.)
