We Don't Have Much Time…

Before the cutbacks in coverage – and quality – begin.

Because, as you can see, we haven't quite made our fundraising goal, and we don't have a very big margin of error. Antiwar.com is run on a very tight budget. Which means that if we don't get the income we project from our quarterly fundraising efforts, something's got to give …

Bluntly put, if we don't make our current fundraising goal, Antiwar.com will simply cease being effective. We've managed to make some impact on the national debate over the Iraq war question: we almost single-handedly popularized the case against the neoconservatives as the real heart and soul of the War Party, and pretty much made the term "neocons" ubiquitous in popular expressions of antiwar sentiment. But we won't be able to keep up the momentum – not with a reduced staff and less resources.

We're making this last-ditch appeal to our readers and supporters: if you value what we're doing, and how we're doing it, now is the time to give us your support and make a contribution. The crisis of yet another war is looming – and there isn't much time to stop the War Party before the bombs start falling on Iran.

So, please – your contribution makes a real difference, and it has never been as needed.

Contribute today.


On the first six days of our drive, 1,107 of you gave a total of $52,926. We need to pick up the pace to reach our goal of $70,000 to keep Antiwar.com running for the next quarter. Please help.
