Dear James,

Breaking news! After three rounds of marathon negotiations - and 34 years of confrontation - Iran, the United States, and our international partners just signed a deal to halt Iran's nuclear program. This is an extraordinary moment, a historic milestone and an amazing opportunity for peace. 

But, before the ink on the agreement was dry, the right-wing hawks who are itching for war with Iran were already condemning the deal and plotting to kill it in Congress.  Senator Rubio put out a statement immediately after the agreement was signed claiming that it made war more, not less likely. He and his colleagues in the Senate have vowed to kill the deal with the passage of new sanctions.

We cannot allow them to get away with it.  We are gearing up for a major campaign to stop the hawks, save the deal and give diplomacy – and hope – a fighting chance.

But we need you to succeed.  Help us make a stand for diplomacy and peace!

Coming only months after a diplomatic breakthrough that led to the destruction of Syria's chemical weapons threat, this deal proves once again that diplomacy works and that there are solutions besides bombs to America's security challenges. And that's why the American public supports a diplomatic deal with Iran by a two-to-one margin. 

But this is by no means a done deal.  The same 'experts' who said that the Iraq War would be a cakewalk now want us to believe that the President is 'naive' and that diplomacy cannot work. Republicans in Congress were out in force on the Sunday talk shows to denounce the President while pledging to undermine this landmark deal. 

That's why we need your help!

We are already fighting back hard to support diplomacy and give peace a chance.  Over the past year, Win Without War and our partners have positioned ourselves to marshal grassroots support and mobilize our allies in Washington to win this fight.  Now, that fight is joined!    We are ready to launch our biggest effort yet to ensure that the US and the world will win without war but we cannot do it alone! 

Please contribute what you can to help support diplomacy today! Your tax-deductible donation of $100, $50, $25, or any amount that's right for you will go directly to fighting for peace.

Thank you for working for peace!

Stephen, Angela, Tom and the Win Without War Team
