Now we need you to match the donations of our most generous contributors

So here’s the deal:

  • We’ve raised $26,000 in matching funds. Now we need you to donate that amount in order to ensure our continued survival.
  • We’ve also raised $10,000 worth of Bitcoin and we need to match that, too (go here for details).

It’s make-or-break time at Antiwar.com – and we’re asking our readers to come through.

The US war machine is actively murdering people all over the world, even as we make this appeal. Who will stop the madness?

It has to be you. And it has to start with educating the American people about what is being done in their name, with their tax dollars. That’s our job – but we can’t do it without your support.

Please give all you can as soon as you can, because the next few days will decide our fate. Antiwar.com is needed now more than ever: if you’ve been holding back, now is the time to make your tax-deductible donation – because peace matters.
