We're at the moment of decision – and the decision is yours to make.

A small group of our supporters has stepped forward to make a contribution, with one condition: that we match the $23,000 they have pledged.

Otherwise, it's no dice…

As rumors of war get more insistent, we here at Antiwar.com are fighting for our very existence – at a time when our existence is crucial. That's why we're interrupting our work to make this pitch. If we don't reach our goal, we're history.

It's as simple as that.

We don't get money from the big liberal foundations, or the big libertarian ones, either. Somehow, we get left off the gravy train. But that's cool with us because we don't have to answer to anyone – except for you, our readers. That's why they call it independent journalism, but it doesn't come free. The nation stands on the brink of war, and there's an energetic – and very well-funded – lobby trying to push us over the edge. We can't possibly match their resources. All we can hope to do is match the generous contribution of our "angels."

Your tax-deductible donation makes all the difference in the world, so make it today.
