Killing these innocent people will not bring you closer to any of your goals...Please pray about this! Quakers have opposed the invasion of Iraq from the very beginning.
Help us all to enter into the minds of the captives, into the minds of the captors. Help us to find and keep that center that works for and is linked to peace. For the sake of all of us.

We are fighting to get out of Iraq. We do not like Bush either. Please see that those you have taken, are good people. Please, let them go.
People of conscience opposed to the American invasion and occupation of Iraq and working to end it are not a threat to the Iraqi people and should be freed to continue in their important work.
We are all children of Abraham.
These people have mothers, fathers, nephews, nieces, brothers and sisters. Give all of us hope, release them. They are there to help you and Iraqi people.
These are people whose sole reason for being in Iraq is to make life a little better for Iraqi citizens. They aren't making money or killing anyone or trying to convert them to Christianity!
I have followed the Christian Peacemaker Teams work for about a year now and can attest to the fact that they are simply working for peace. There committment to peace takes them to war zones where others fear to go. Please do not harm the peacemakers.
The lives of the captured peace workers must be spared. It'd be a heinous crime to take the lives of those, who've dedicated theirs for the cause of peace and are on the side of the victims of a cruel unethical war.
From an anti occupation Iraqi, I urge you to release the four members of CPT, who were risking their lives to provide a little assistance to our people during these most difficult times in Iraq.
The liberation of our country is drawing nearer, please spare the lives of the innocent to make the taste of victory that much sweeter and more honorable.
Please release them. They are not agents of the US government. They have working in Iraq for peace. As a former member of a CPT team, I know they oppose American policy in Iraq.
