When
Antiwar.com was founded, 17 years ago, we didn't have a staff, we didn't
write and run our own news articles, we didn't have columnists, and our
audience didn't go beyond a few thousand readers. We also didn't have
fundraisers because we were too busy to stop and ask our readers
for money. They sent it in anyway and from there we grew into the
world's premier antiwar web site.
Today we are a slightly
larger operation. Our audience is big: over 1 million visits in the past
30 days. But our resources not so much. We're still dependent on
the kindness and commitment of our readers you to keep this
web site going. Compared to Washington's unlimited war chest, we are a
mere David facing up to a giant Goliath and we still need your
help in leveling the battlefield.
We hoped to avoid
devoting more of the front page to the fundraiser this time around, and
we'll hold off as long as we can there's just too much of vital
importance going on in the world. But we can't keep doing that unless
donations pick up considerably.
So it's up to you
please make your tax-deductible
contribution today.
