      support the Iraqi government - against the same insurgents whom
      we're already supporting as they fight the Syrian government.
      Adding military fuel to the fire is no answer in Iraq.<br>

      At today's AWARE table we talked about the alarming prospect of
      use of new US military force in Iraq.   If you can spare a few

      We'll aim to have some signs, but if you have time to make a new
      one, that could be good.  Likewise if you have an idea for a sign

          Just Foreign Policy created a MoveOn petition opposing
      intervention, by calling for Congressional authorization for any
      action.  This was enough obstacle to block direct US military
      intervention in Syria last autumn, and perhaps it could be here:<br>
