Yes, it's matching funds time again. A small group of our most generous supporters have pledged $26,000 to help us keep going – but only if we can match it by the end of this fundraising drive.

We really really need this funding to keep going – really we do. Unlike the manifold organizations and thinktanks that constitute the War Party, Antiwar.com depends on the many modest contributions of our readers and supporters. Without you, we wouldn't be here – and that would make the Washington warmongers really really happy.

This fundraiser is vitally important – because we're finally beginning to make some progress. A war-weary nation is looking for a way out of the nightmare of endless war, and we are seeing the beginnings of a real debate about the future of US foreign policy.

So please – help us make the case for a more peaceful relationship with the rest of the world. Help us restore a modicum of sanity to a world gone mad with bloodlust. Help us match the wonderful generosity of a few dedicated peace activists – make your tax-deductible contribution today.
