Hi Everyone,
    Good news:  X has indicated he might co-sponsor the strong
resolution if we get someone else to sponsor as well.
    Now we're hoping to convince X to be our lead sponsor.  TX
told me he could "free up" some time on Saturday to sit down with us.  I
agreed to call him at 11am on Saturday to pin down a time to meet him later
that day.
    I realize this is less than ideal, not having a definite time.
    But why don't you give me the best way to contact you all at 11am
Saturday (if you'll be around at all), and I'll make a point to call you as
soon as I establish a time with X.
    I have a car and can pick up people.  X appears to live on the near
west side, a stone's throw from campus.
   Thanks everyone!

--X

hello all,
I agree we need to meet soon to discuss these issues in real time.  Does
meeting this Sun at 6:30 pm at the Union leave us at least an hour before
the coordinating cmte meeting?  I can make that time, tho I'd prefer
something a little earlier.  Paul Bunyan room or TITU?
thanks,
Diane
X
&gt; Sunday night meeting sounds fine, assuming I get feedback from alders
after
&gt; their Friday night caucus.  I think I will.
&gt;
&gt; The title wasn't filed yet, but I think that's OK.  We can do that sort of
&gt; announcement/introduction on 11/6 from the Common Council floor.  In any
&gt; case, debate won't be until 11/20 at the earliest.
&gt;

Policy committee,

I want to express my support and appreciation of the work you have done on
the Policy committee.  I hope that you were not too frustrated and
disheartened by the discussion at the meeting tonite on the common council
proposal.  It is really super that you put this together and brought it
forward to the group.  I hope that those having differing opinions on the
verbiage and tone will give you whatever help you need in moving forward
with the "2 pronged" approach.  I would encourage you to utilize X's offer of assistance and experience.

I personally have mixed feelings on it, and no experience in political
matters.  On the one hand, I would like it to be stronger and actually say
what we mean, but understand the desire to actually get something passed.
In any case, I just wanted to express my support for your efforts in
whatever direction they take.

X

hi all,

A few thoughts to pass on (after having talked to X)...

First, it doesn't seem to me as though it's worthwhile trying to continue
with a two-pronged approach.  We're having enough trouble getting the
"weaker" resolution introduced - let's focus our efforts on that.

Second, it seems as though we might alienate the progressive caucus by
pushing to have the resolution voted on at the Nov 20 city council meeting.
(Leading me to think we need a FOURTH party, but that's a rant for another
time.)

However, I'm thinking it might be effective to follow up on a suggestion
from X, that we have (a few thoughtfully chosen) people go to the
city council meeting on Nov 20 and demand they address the situation.  That
will set the stage and demonstrate a real people's mandate for the
resolution to be introduced and voted on at the next council meeting on Dec
4.

X's going to get this included on the agenda of the general MAPC
meeting tomorrow night (6:30, Memorial Union, TITU).  I suggest we use our
time at the general meeting to:
    * summarize our efforts, especially the reluctance/ resistance of the
progressive caucus to introduce the resolution
    * propose that we organize a small, well-chosen delegation of
individuals to demand the city council address the impending humanitarian
crisis at the 11/20 council meeting
    * push and fight like hell to have the resolution introduced, voted on,
and ADOPTED at the Dec 4 council meeting
    * get feedback from the larger MAPC group on this plan, along with
thoughts on who we should recruit for the Nov 20 delegation (I'm thinking
community, religious, campus, business leaders).

Whad'y'all think?

-X

"Independence is not about having a flag, a president, a parliament, a
government. Independence must imply, year by year, gradual change in the
life of the entire population of Timor Lorosa'e. If we fail to effect
change in the daily life of the people, independence will be a meaningless
concept, all our sacrifices throughout the years of the struggle will be in
vain. And not one of us will allow this to occur."

Hi guys,

I see you're still at your budget meeting.  Please still email me
tonight to find out about the submittal of tthe peace/humanitarian aid
resolution which is due tomorrow at 9am and having it on the Nov. 20
meeting agenda.

Then later, tomorrow, you can tell me/us or we can start discussing the
strategy you'd like to go forward with with its passage, if there will
be a substitute by others or not, etc.

Remember, X, still call me tonight (doesn't matter if the CC meeting
is over late) to let me know about what's happening tomorrow at 9am.  My
telephone # is XXX-XXXX and please leave me a message if I'm unable to
answer the phone.

Thanks--X

The following concurrent resolutions and Senate resolutions were read, and
referred (or acted upon), as indicated:

   By Mr. WELLSTONE:

   S. Res. 172. A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate regarding
the urgent need to provide emergency
humanitarian assistance and development assistance to civilians in
Afghanistan, including Afghan refugees in
surrounding countries; to the Committee on Foreign Relations.


SENATE RESOLUTION 172--EXPRESSING THE SENSE OF THE SENATE REGARDING THE
URGENT
NEED TO PROVIDE EMERGENCY HUMANITARIAN ASSISTANCE AND DEVELOPMENT
ASSISTANCE TO CIVILIANS IN AFGHANISTAN, INCLUDING AFGHAN REFUGEES IN
SURROUNDING COUNTRIES

   Mr. WELLSTONE submitted the following resolution; which was referred to
the Committee on Foreign Relations:

   S. Res. 172

   Whereas, well before the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001,
Afghanistan was the site of the greatest crisis of
hunger and displacement in the world;

   Whereas, after more than 20 years of conflict, 3 years of severe drought,
and the repressive policies of the Taliban
regime, 4,000,000 Afghans had sought refuge in neighboring countries, and
Afghan women have one of the highest
maternal mortality rates in the world, and one in four children dies before
the child's fifth birthday;

   Whereas the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees estimates that
1,500,000 additional Afghans could
seek to flee the country in coming months due to the ongoing military
conflict;

   Whereas all 6 countries neighboring Afghanistan have closed their borders
to refugees both on security grounds and
citing an inability to economically provide for more refugees, and thousands
have been trapped at borders with no
food, shelter, water, or medical care;

   Whereas 7,500,000 people inside Afghanistan face critical food shortages
or risk starvation by winter's end, and are
partially or fully dependent on outside assistance for survival, and of
these people, 70 percent are women and
children;

   Whereas the United Nations World Food Program (WFP), which distributes
most of the food within Afghanistan,
estimates that food stocks in the country are critically short, and WFP
overland food shipments inside and outside the
border of Afghanistan have been disrupted due to security concerns over
United States military strikes;

   Whereas airdrops of food by the United States military cannot by itself
meet the enormous humanitarian needs of the
Afghan people, and cannot replace the most effective delivery method of
overland truck convoys of food, nor can it
replace access to affected populations by humanitarian agencies;

   Whereas the President has announced a $320,000,000 initiative to respond
to the humanitarian needs in Afghanistan
and for Afghan refugees in neighboring countries, and much more
international assistance is clearly needed; and

   Whereas the United States is the single largest donor of humanitarian
assistance to the Afghan people, totaling more
than $185,000,000 in fiscal year 2001: Now, therefore, be it

    Resolved,

   SECTION 1. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON HUMANITARIAN AND DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE
FOR THE PEOPLE OF AFGHANISTAN.

    It is the sense of the Senate that--

    (1) Afghanistan's neighbors should reopen their borders to allow for the
safe passage of refugees, and the
international community must be prepared to contribute to the economic costs
incurred by the flight of desperate
Afghan civilians;

    (2) as the United States engages in military action in Afghanistan, it
must work to deliver assistance, particularly
through overland truck convoys, and safe humanitarian access to affected
populations, in partnership with humanitarian
agencies in quantities sufficient to alleviate a large scale humanitarian
catastrophe; and

    (3) the United States should contribute to efforts by the international
community to provide long-term, sustainable
reconstruction and development assistance for the people of Afghanistan,
including efforts to protect the basic human
rights of women and children.

   Mr. WELLSTONE. Mr. President, even before the world focused on it as a
sanctuary for Osama bin Laden and
other terrorists, Afghanistan was on the brink of a humanitarian
catastrophe, the site of the greatest crisis in hunger and
refugee displacement in the world. Now the worsening situation on the ground
is almost unimaginable. After 4 years of
relentless drought, the worst in three decades, and the total failure of the
Taliban government in administering the
country, 4 million people have abandoned their homes in search of food in
Pakistan, Iran, Tajikistan, and elsewhere,
while those left behind eat meals of locusts and animal fodder.

   Mr. President, 7.5 million people inside the country are threatened by
famine or severe hunger as cold weather
approaches, according to the United Nations.

   As President Bush made clear, we are waging a campaign against
terrorists, not ordinary Afghans, who are some of
the poorest and most beleaguered people on the planet and were our allies
during the cold war.

   Yet, the current military air strikes and the disintegration of security
is worsening the humanitarian situation on the
ground.

   Aid organizations are increasingly concerned about their ability to
deliver aid to Afghanistan while the United States
continues its bombing campaign. Several aid organizations have been
accidentally bombed by the United States in the
last week. In addition to these accidental bombings, law and order are
breaking down inside Afghanistan. Reports
indicate that thieves have broken into several aid organization offices,
beat up the Afghan staff and stolen vehicles,
spare parts, and other equipment.

   Warehouses of the International Red Cross in Kabul were bombed yesterday.
The ICRC says that the warehouses
were clearly marked white with a large red cross visible from the air. One
worker was wounded and is now in stable
condition. One warehouse suffered a direct hit, which destroyed tarpaulins,
plastic sheeting, and blankets, while
another containing food caught on fire and was partially destroyed. The
Pentagon claimed responsibility for the
bombing later in the day, adding that they ``regret any innocent
casualties,'' and that the ICRC warehouses were part
of a series of warehouses that the United States believed were used to store
military equipment. ``There are huge
needs for the civilian population, and definitely it will hamper our
operations,'' Robert Monin, head of the International
Red Cross' Afghanistan delegation, said on Islamabad, Pakistan.

   Another missile struck near a World Food Program warehouse in Afsotar,
wounding one laborer. The missile struck
as trucks were being loaded for an Oxfam convoy to the Hazarajat region,
where winter will begin closing off the
passes in the next two weeks. Loading was suspended and the warehouse
remains closed today.

   Last week, four U.N. workers for a demining operation were accidentally
killed when a bomb struck their office in
Kabul.

   In response to the dangers threatening humanitarian operations, the

                                [Page: S10843]  GPO's PDF

Oxfam America President said, ``It is now evident that we cannot, in
reasonable safety, get food to hungry Afghan
people. We've reached the point where it is simply unrealistic for us to do
our job in Afghanistan. We've run out of
food, the borders are closed, we can't reach our staff, and time's running
out.''

   The World Food Program was feeding 3.8 million people a day in
Afghanistan even before the bombing campaign
began. These included 900,000 internally displaced people at camps. Although
the United States military has dropped
thousands of ready to eat meals, everyone agrees that only truck convoys can
move sufficient food into Afghanistan
before winter. As of last Friday, there were only two convoys confirmed to
have gotten though. WFP announced that
two more convoys since the bombing campaign started were nearing Kabul.

   Complications and delays in delivering emergency food supplies to
Afghanistan could cause rising death rates from
starvation and illness as

   winter sets in. Many of the high mountain passes will be closed by
mid-November due to 20-30 foot snows.

   Aid agencies are falling behind in their efforts to deliver enough
emergency relief to Afghans to avoid a large loss of
life this winter. UNICEF estimates that, in addition to the total of 300,000
Afghan children who die of ``preventable
causes'' each year, 100,000 more children might die this winter from hunger
and disease.

   The main reasons for this shortfall in aid are related to security
concerns. Aid agencies have withdrawn their
international staff, and local staff have attempted to continue the aid
programs but have been subjected to intimidation,
theft, and harassment. As the United States continues to pound Taliban
targets, law and order in some cities is
reportedly also breaking down. Truck drivers are unwilling to deliver
supplies to some areas for fear of being bombed
by the United States, or being attacked by one faction or another. Taliban
supporters have obstructed aid deliveries
on some occasions.

   Despite these nightmares, shipment of food and nonfood emergency items
arrive in Afghanistan daily--but the total
shipped is only about one-half of what is needed. The situation is
particularly urgent as some of the poorest and most
needy areas will be cut off from overland routes by mid-November. An
estimated 600,000 people in the Central
Highlands are dependent upon international food aid, and little is on hand
for them now.

   The food shortfall in Afghanistan may result in an increased flow of
refugees to the borders. A flood of refugees to
the border would present a different but also challenging set of problems.
Clearly, as everyone has said, it is better for
them to remain at home than flee to neighboring countries out of hunger.

   There is no easy solution to this humanitarian crisis. It is complex and
requires the international community to take
urgent and imaginative action to boost the flow of food inside. The United
States should take the lead in helping to
devise aggressive and imaginative ways to expand the delivery of food. These
could include the creation of
humanitarian corridors, the use of existing commercial trading companies and
air deliveries to airports that have not yet
been bombed.

   The establishment of humanitarian ground and air corridors should be
considered for the secure transportation and
distribution of emergency aid. The administration should push to have some
roads or air routes in areas of limited
conflict be designated as protected humanitarian routes. Such possible
ground and air corridors include Northern
Alliance held territory along the border of Tajikstan, and Northern Alliance
airfields which have not been bombed.
These airfields could be used for a Berlin style airlift to get massive
amounts of aid into the country quickly.

   The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees estimates that 1.5
million additional Afghans could seek to flee
the country in coming months due to the ongoing military conflict.

   All six countries neighboring Afghanistan have closed their borders to
refugees both on security grounds and citing
an inability to economically provide for more refugees. Thousands have been
trapped at borders with no food, shelter,
water, or medical care.

   I am introducing a resolution today which addresses this crisis. The text
of the resolution states the following:

   Afghanistan's neighbors should reopen their borders to allow for the safe
passage of refugees, and the international
community must be prepared to contribute to the economic costs incurred by
the flight of desperate Afghan civilians;

   As the United States engages in military action in Afghanistan, it must
work to deliver assistance, particularly through
overland truck convoys, and safe humanitarian access to affected
populations, in partnership with humanitarian
agencies in quantities sufficient to alleviate a large scale humanitarian
catastrophe;

   The United States should contribute to efforts by the international
community to provide long-term, sustainable
reconstruction and development assistance for the people of Afghanistan,
including efforts to protect the basic human
rights of women and children.

   I urge my colleagues to support this measure.

   Mr. President, I spoke yesterday in this Chamber in relation to this
resolution I am submitting today. I will offer this
as an amendment on legislation to have a vote.

   I think we in America are probably as united as we can be as a people,
especially when it comes to our horror and
sadness, indignation and anger at the innocent slaughter of so many people,
so many Americans.

   In response to that, a resolution was passed authorizing the use of
force, targeted on those who committed this act,
hopefully drawing a distinction between justice and vengeance.

   I think most of us also believe--and certainly Secretary Powell has said
this more than once, as it is terribly
important--that the use of force, the military action, must be as targeted
as possible; that every step be taken that is
humanly possible to avoid innocent people being killed, innocent Afghans who
had nothing to do with the murders in
our country.

   I worry to the extent that there are reports that innocent people have
been killed in the bombing. I certainly worry
about that. Our country wants to avoid that. Moreover, there is also the
whole question of the Islamic world and how
people respond to this. So, again, I will make the point that this has to be
as carefully targeted as possible.

   But the other issue, which I do not think we have paid enough attention
to--and I had a chance to write a piece for
the Boston Globe a couple weeks ago, and I am going to start speaking about
this in the Chamber more, and I think
there is a lot of strong bipartisan interest and support for this--is the
whole question of this humanitarian crisis in
Afghanistan.

   The reports are there are about 7.5 million people who go hungry. We do
not know how many hundreds of
thousands could starve to death this winter if we do not get food to people.

   The problem is, though there has been a lot of discussion about the
airdrops, maybe a half of 1 percent, maybe 1
percent at best, doesn't do the job. The only way we can get the food to
people is through the truck convoys, and
now not nearly enough of this is happening.

   Different organizations, the NGOs, the nongovernment organizations, food
relief organizations, are all saying on
present course they may be able to get enough food for half the people who
need it at best. In 3 or 4 weeks there will
be cold winter weather, and we will see pictures of innocent, starving
Afghan children. That is a fact.

   The resolution calls upon our Government to take stronger measures, with
a more focused effort to get the food to
people. That will be complicated. Part of it involves people who will still
be trying to leave Afghanistan. Some of the
neighboring countries have to open up their borders. Those people have been
stopped at the borders. Then there are
the people who don't leave. And the conditions in the refugee camps have to
be dramatically improved.

   The fact is, the people who don't leave are the poorest of the poor. They
are the elderly, the infirmed; they are the
children. They are the ones about whom we all worry. There have been
intermittent reports--quite often when you try
to confirm it, it is not clear what happened--that the Taliban itself

                                [Page: S10844]  GPO's PDF

has taken some of the food. Many organizations are saying with the bombing
the truck convoys can't go through.

   I am not making an argument for cessation of bombing. I argue it be as
targeted as possible and to avoid in every
way possible bombing innocent people. There has to be a way, whether it is
the creation of safe corridors,
coordinated with military activity or whatever to get these truck convoys in
to get the food to people. Time is not
neutral. We are going to deeply regret if we don't take these steps.

   The resolution expresses the sense of the Senate regarding the urgent
need to provide humanitarian assistance to the
civilians of Afghanistan. Well before the terrorist attack of September 11,
this was the site of great hunger and
displacement in the world.

   Whereas, after more than 20 years of conflict, 3 years of severe drought
and the repressive policies of the Taliban
regime, 4 million Afghans have sought refuge in neighboring countries, and
Afghan women have one of the highest
maternal mortality rates in the world, and one in four children dies before
the child's fifth birthday; whereas the United
Nations High Commissioner for Refugees estimates that 1,500,000 additional
Afghans could seek to flee the country
in the coming months due to the military conflict; whereas all six countries
neighboring Afghanistan have closed their
borders to refugees both on security grounds and are also saying they can't
provide for the refugees economically;
whereas 7,500,000 people inside Afghanistan face critical food shortages or
risk starvation by winter's end and are
partially or fully dependent on outside assistance for survival, and of
these people 70 percent are women and children;
whereas the United Nations World Food Program, which we commonly call the
WFP, which distributes most of the
food within Afghanistan, estimates that food stocks in the country are
critically short and WFP overland food
shipments inside and outside the border of Afghanistan have been disrupted
due to security concerns over United
States military strikes; whereas the airdrops of food cannot meet the
humanitarian needs of the Afghan people--and
there is more to

   it, but I do not have the time--and that the most effective delivery is
the overland convoys of food; whereas the
President has announced a $320 million initiative to respond to the
humanitarian needs in Afghanistan and for Afghan
refugees in neighboring countries; whereas the United States is the largest
donor of humanitarian assistance, be it
resolved--and this is what I am hoping to get a strong vote on--it is the
sense of the Senate that, A, Afghanistan's
neighbors should reopen their borders to allow for safe passage of refugees,
and the international community must be
prepared to contribute to the economic costs incurred by the flight of
desperate Afghan civilians; B, as the United
States engages in military action in Afghanistan, it must work to deliver
assistance particularly through overland truck
convoys and safe humanitarian access to affected populations in partnership
with humanitarian agencies--that is
critical--and C, the United States should contribute to efforts by the
international community to provide long-term
sustainable reconstruction and development assistance for the people of
Afghanistan, including efforts to protect the
basic human rights of women and children.

   I announce this resolution today, which will be in the form of an
amendment on the first vehicle for a vote, because it
is critically important for the Senate to go on record with an intense and
focused effort because it is who we are. It is
our values to make sure these truck convoys can go forward and we can get
the food to people.

   A, it is who we are as a nation. It is about the values we live by and,
frankly, B, it is national interest. If you have
juxtaposed with military actions pictures of starving Afghan children in the
winter to come, that will be used against us.
We know it will be used against us. We do not want to see that happen.

   I am hoping there will be a strong message from the Senate to work with
the administration, to work with the
NGOs, to work with the food relief organizations. We have to put a focus on
this.

Hi, all,

I finally got in touch with X, and she's willing - actually, eager
- to cosponsor the resolution!  She really likes the resolution and thinks
it has a good chance of passing the council.

Her one reservation about the resolution as currently written is the last
clause (below).  She feels it's out of tone with the rest of the resolution
and insinuates the U.S. is indifferent to the plight of the Afghanis (no
comment).  She suggested we try to re-write it to make the same points in a
different way, and said she'd also give some thought to it.

&gt; BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the Madison Common Council on behalf of the
&gt; people of Madison, in solidarity with the international community and in
&gt; their capacity as citizens of the United States, urges the federal
&gt; government to put humanitarian concerns first and will consider the
&gt; Government of the United States responsible for both the direct
consequences
&gt; of its military actions in Afghanistan and for the results of its
&gt; indifference to the priority of humanitarian concerns in Afghanistan and
the
&gt; surrounding region.

About the timing of the resolution - X strongly suggests we introduce the
resolution on Nov 20, which means it will be voted on at the Dec 4 council
meeting.  She said doing anything else at this point would necessitate a
suspension of the rules, which people don't like to do.  She also said that,
especially with this resolution, alders would want time to read it over
carefully and get feedback from constituents.  To follow this timeline (with
normal procedure), we need to have a final text introduced by noon this
Thursday.  Since we're only looking at reworking the last clause, I said I
thought we'd be able to come up with a revised version tonight, which I'd
pass on to her tomorrow morning.

What do you think?  It's later than we had hoped to have it introduced, but
it sounds like we'll have a better chance of passing the resolution then
(given council dynamics), and we'll also have more time to mobilize the
community in support of the resolution.  It's true that this puts the
resolution passing just after the timeline humanitarian groups have put on
needing to start land convoys of aid, but I'm thinking that this is OK for
two reasons:  First, it's not like the U.S. federal gov't will immediately
stop bombing because of a Madison city council resolution - this is one
effort in a much bigger movement that will contribute to opening up dialogue
on the issue.  Second - this is tragic and I hope it doesn't come across as
insensitive - if there are increased reports of Afghani civilians starving
just before the council vote, it will make it really hard for alders not to
support the resolution (and we should submit copies of any articles like
this to the alders just before the Dec 4 vote).

See y'all tonight,
X

Hi X and Policy folks -

My general comments are:

  1 - In addition to drafting this resolution, I'm guessing that you've
thought a lot about strategy for getting it passed.  It WILL set off a
firestorm, promoted by the State Journal and the radio shock-jocks with
their newfound local political power.  You will definitely want to develop a
full-court press on this in conjunction with friendly Alders.  One idea
might be to send folks to the Common Council meeting PREVIOUS to the meeting
at which you intend for this
resolution to be introduced to demand an explanation as why the Common
Council hasn't already acted.  Then you could get Alders to introduce it -
in response - to the requests.

  2 - The following are Progressive Dane Alderpeople.  We have 8 of 20 seats
on the Common Council.  These are your most likely bets for sponsors of such
a resolution.  Three of these are also Greens (Konkel, Powell, Jarrell).
Additionally, two alders used to be Progressive Dane but are not any longer.
Still, they vote with our people most of the time and are generally fairly
decent:

current Pd alders:
6       JUDY    OLSON   Judy Olson &lt;district6@council.ci.madison.wi.us&gt;;
work &lt;jdo_qhi@chorus.net        245-0557        255-9133
4       MICHAEL VERVEER Michael Verveer &lt;district4@council.ci.madison.wi.us&gt;
255-6498
2       Brenda  Konkel  Brenda Konkel &lt;stellablues@geocities.com&gt;
251-2412
257-0143
11      JEAN    MACCUBBIN       Jean MacCubbin
&lt;district11@council.ci.madison.wi.us&gt;    238-4863        266-0955
5       Tom     Powell  Tom Powell &lt;thos.powell@bigfoot.com&gt;    233-1059
261-7989
15      Kent    Palmer          244-7462
13      Matt    Sloan           250-6664        265-4065
8       todd mathew     jarrell todd_jarrell@hotmail.com        259-1976

Two former PD alders - still friendly:
10      KEN     GOLDEN          238-4370
20      Gary    Poulson Gary Poulson &lt;district20@council.ci.madison.wi.us&gt;
233-1469, 233-0914      266-7275, 266-4071, 233-0914


3 - I would come up with another working title for the resolution that is
much shorter - i.e. - "Defense of Victims Resolution" or something like that
- to frame the issue the way you want it framed ahead of time.

4 - The resolution should be changed wherever it read "the United States" to
be Madison-focused.  In other words, for example:

. . . BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the the Madison Common Council calls upon
the federal government to contribute to efforts by the international
community to provide long-term, sustainable reconstruction and development
assistance for the people of Afghanistan, including efforts to protect the
basic human rights of
women and children; and

Also - remove references to the "people of Madison" and replace them with
Madison Common Council.  I'm just thinking about what phrases could be used
as ammo by the rightwing locally.  They will say (1) Madison shouldn't set
foreign policy- so we should say Madison is urging the Feds to change policy
- and they will say (2) How dare the Common Council speak for "the people of
Madison" - so we should just say the "Common Council" is making this
resolution on our behalf.
They will also go nuts about patriotism and everything else, but there's
nothing we can do in the language about that, except perhaps to repeatedly
state that the current U.S. policy is contrary to the best American values.

5 - Add some whereas' about Annan and the UN and even (according to WORT
tonight) Russ Feingold calling for a halt to the bombing so that supplies
can get in - and mention the bombing of the Red Cross warehouses.

Thanks and good luck!

&gt;
&gt;The deadline for the next council meeting agenda is too soon for me to
&gt;consult with
&gt;my colleagues about this resolution.  I can bring it up at the caucus
&gt;meeting this
&gt;weekend.  While I prefer the first version, as it best represents my
&gt;beliefs, the
&gt;second version would be less of a bloodbath and more likely to pass on the
&gt;council
&gt;floor.  The reality of this is that Berkely just passed a similar
&gt;resolution, in
&gt;which they received thousands of calls an e-mails, etc., blasting them for
&gt;it.  The
&gt;State Journal recently had an editorial about it too.  Basically, the
&gt;concerns that
&gt;my fellow progressives will have will most likely be centered on the
&gt;McCarthyism that
&gt;is about and bound to ensue.  But does that mean they won't support either
&gt;version? I
&gt;don't know.

&gt; &gt; Dear Mr. X:
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;      I am writing as a member of the newly-formed Madison Area Peace
&gt; &gt; Coalition (www.madpeace.org).  We are a citizen coalition of over thirty
&gt; &gt; member organizations, representing over 5000 people in the Madison area.
&gt; &gt; Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) supports a non-violent response to
&gt;the
&gt; &gt; attacks of 9/11.  Specifically, we advocate:
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; (1) Peace and Justice, not War and Revenge
&gt; &gt; (2) Protecting our Civil Liberties, and
&gt; &gt; (3) Unity and Protection of Arab-Americans and Others in the wake of the
&gt; &gt; attacks.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;          I am writing to request your assistance in introducing a
&gt;resolution
&gt; &gt; to the Common Council endorsing some portion of our position.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;          Below is the draft our coalition has put together.  Below that
&gt;is a
&gt; &gt; weaker draft, in which only the next-to-last clause has been changed.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;          I just realized last night that we are bumping up against a
&gt; &gt; deadline to get things on the agenda for the next Common Council
&gt;Meeting.  I
&gt; &gt; would like to ask you whether you would be willing to sponsor either of
&gt;the
&gt; &gt; resolutions below.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;          I look forward to discussing this with you soon.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Sincerely,
&gt; &gt; X
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Policy Committee
&gt; &gt; Madison Area Peace Coalition
&gt; &gt; =====================================================================
&gt; &gt; &gt;A RESOLUTION regarding the urgent need to provide emergency
&gt;humanitarian
&gt; &gt; &gt;assistance and development assistance to civilians in Afghanistan,
&gt; &gt; &gt;including Afghan refugees in surrounding countries.
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       a disastrous humanitarian crisis is underway, with an
&gt;estimated
&gt; &gt; &gt;7.5 million people in Afghanistan facing critical food shortage or
&gt;outright
&gt; &gt; &gt;starvation this winter; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       70 percent of these people are women and children, and
&gt;the UN
&gt; &gt; &gt;estimates 400,000 children under five will likely die this year, an
&gt; &gt; &gt;increase of over 30 percent from last year; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       food aid shipments have been disrupted because of U.S
&gt;bombing in
&gt; &gt; &gt;Afghanistan; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       the aid agencies active in the region, including the
&gt;Nobel
&gt; &gt; &gt;laureate Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Oxfam International and the
&gt;World
&gt; &gt; &gt;Food Program have stated that the U.S. food
&gt; &gt; &gt;drops can not meet the increasing and urgent need for assistance; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       Madison now participates directly and indirectly in U.S.
&gt;military
&gt; &gt; &gt;efforts through many channels, including the federal taxes its citizens
&gt; &gt; &gt;pay, and through its citizens' participation in the armed forces; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       the Mayor and Common Council are appalled at the mass
&gt;starvation
&gt; &gt; &gt;that will result from these actions to which they are a party if the
&gt; &gt; &gt;situation is not speedily addressed; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;WHEREAS,       The Mayor and Common Council deplore the dishonor such
&gt;an outcome
&gt; &gt; &gt;would be for the victims of the terrorist attacks of September 11th;
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT the Mayor and Common Council urge a
&gt; &gt; &gt;resolution to the situation that minimizes loss of life; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT humanitarian concerns must now be a top
&gt; &gt; &gt;priority for U.S. policy toward Afghanistan, especially as there exists
&gt;a
&gt; &gt; &gt;narrow window of opportunity for supplying food to the region's
&gt;population
&gt; &gt; &gt;before winter makes this difficult or impossible; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Afghanistan's neighbors should immediately
&gt; &gt; &gt;reopen their borders to allow for the safe passage of refugees, and the
&gt; &gt; &gt;U.S. and other members of the international community must be prepared
&gt;to
&gt; &gt; &gt;contribute to the economic costs incurred by the flight of desperate
&gt;Afghan
&gt; &gt; &gt;civilians; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States must actively support the
&gt; &gt; &gt;work of various agencies to deliver assistance in Afghanistan,
&gt;particularly
&gt; &gt; &gt;through overland truck convoys, and support safe humanitarian access to
&gt; &gt; &gt;affected populations, in partnership with humanitarian agencies in
&gt; &gt; &gt;quantities sufficient to alleviate a large scale humanitarian
&gt;catastrophe;
&gt; &gt; &gt;and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States should contribute to
&gt;efforts
&gt; &gt; &gt;by the international community to provide long-term, sustainable
&gt; &gt; &gt;reconstruction and development assistance for the people of
&gt;Afghanistan,
&gt; &gt; &gt;including efforts to protect the basic human rights of women and
&gt;children;
&gt; &gt; &gt;and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the United States should immediately stop
&gt; &gt; &gt;military action against Afghanistan because that is the main obstacle
&gt;to
&gt; &gt; &gt;addressing the humanitarian catastrophe there; and
&gt; &gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; &gt;BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the people of Madison, in solidarity with
&gt;the
&gt; &gt; &gt;international community and in their capacity as citizens of the United
&gt; &gt; &gt;States, will consider the Government of the United States responsible
&gt;for
&gt; &gt; &gt;both the direct consequences of its military actions in Afghanistan and
&gt;for
&gt; &gt; &gt;the results of its indifference to the priority of humanitarian
&gt;concerns in
&gt; &gt; &gt;Afghanistan and the surrounding region.

Just talked to X.  She says work with X, try to get
him to sponsor the stronger one, push for debate before Thanksgiving.  So
I'm working on that plan.  I have his day (work) number, and will try to set
up a meeting with him (and include any who can come).  We need to either
file by title only for tomorrow, or maybe we can do it on 11/13 (I will find
out).

X nixed the intro by communication idea.  She also said pick
one title (Shall we go with "Humanitarian Priorities in Afghanistan"?)  Then
we put the strong text forward, and be ready to sub in the weaker text later
if necessary.  She's has a wealth of practical tips.

I promise to slack off on the e-mail as soon as we get this going.

&gt;Subject: Re: [MAPC-policy] resolution update
&gt;Date: Wed, 07 Nov 2001 10:32:15 -0600
&gt;
&gt;hi X. and all,
&gt;
&gt;Thanks for all your work on this!  To clarify - who exactly have you been
&gt;talking to and do you have any sense for how representative their views are
&gt;(at least for the progressive caucus)?  I realize that you'll know all that
&gt;better after Thurs night.
&gt;
&gt;Ideally, I guess I'd like to see the "stronger" resolution introduced as a
&gt;communication and have the "weaker" one be introduced by one or (hopefully)
&gt;more progressive alders.  If that's not going to happen - and it sounds
&gt;unlikely from what you've sent - I think we need to pressure the alders
&gt;we've been talking to to introduce the "weaker" one before T'ksgiving.  I
&gt;have to say I'm really disappointed that they're hesitant to do anything
&gt;before T'ksgiving.  After all, the reality we're addressing is an impending
&gt;massive humanitarian crisis.  Jeeeeeeezus.  THEY need a breather????
&gt;
&gt;I don't know anything about resolutions introduced as a communication w/out
&gt;any alder sponsors, but it seems to me that doing that with our "weaker",
&gt;more likely to pass resolution will flag it as unacceptable to the council.
&gt;If I were a middle of the road alder and saw that none of the PD alders had
&gt;signed on, I sure as heck wouldn't vote for it.  (But I think it'd be fine
&gt;to introduce the "stronger" one like that, if we do still decide to
&gt;introduce it.)
&gt;
&gt;So, I guess - with the current info we have - I feel ambivalent about the
&gt;"stronger" resolution.  If it will help the "weaker" one pass to introduce
&gt;it - by communication or by an alder - then I say we go for it.  But the
&gt;people we need to talk to for this analysis are the PD alders who are
&gt;balking at the "weaker" one.
&gt;
&gt;I strongly feel that we should have SOMETHING - preferably the "weaker" one
&gt;unchanged from where we left it (or at least not substantially changed)
&gt;voted on by Nov 20.  I feel the broader MAPC would agree with this -
&gt;remember, at the last meeting the 1st vote was unanimous support for us
&gt;bringing SOMETHING to the council (with a sense of urgency regarding the
&gt;imminent starvation of millions), and the 2nd was in support of the
&gt;2-pronged strategy.  If we have more info now that the 2-pronged strategy
&gt;won't work, the directive from the 1st vote still stands.
&gt;
&gt;That's my rambling input for now.
&gt;
&gt;-X
&gt;
&gt; &gt; Hi Everyone,
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; The progressive caucus thought they would be ready to act on something
&gt; &gt; AFTER Thanksgiving.  Apparently changing "prayers" to "sympathies" was
&gt;very
&gt; &gt; divisive last time, so they needed a breather.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; I still haven't gotten the in-depth feedback on this--Thursday night I
&gt; &gt; should.  X has been appointed to do this for me.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; X suggested we intro the whole text as a "communication" (no
&gt; &gt; alder's name attached).  That could be done BEFORE Thanksgiving.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; My first step though will be to call X, to make sure I am
&gt; &gt; acting on her excellent strategy advice.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; I'd like the Policy Committee's input on something though.  How far do
&gt;we
&gt; &gt; pursue the two-pronged approach?  What I'm hearing from the progressive
&gt; &gt; alders is that they don't want something too "divisive" (presumably to
&gt;their
&gt; &gt; own caucus?), which means they want to back the weakest thing we've
&gt; &gt; presented them with.  If we are going to introduce one final text "as a
&gt; &gt; communication" I definitely need the Policy Committee's OK on what that
&gt; &gt; final text should be.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; OK, I'll get back to you when I know more.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Sorry about all the e-mail.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; --X

MISSION: infiltrate U.S. Senator Herb ("nobody's senator but yours") Kohl's
office, spewing peace-nic rhetoric and demanding action to protect community
members of color and Muslim-Americans, and to protect our civil liberties.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! 08:00 hours to 08:45 hours, Tuesday, Oct 9, year 2001
C.E.

SPECIAL MAPC AGENTS: x, x, x, x, x (x?), x

DEBRIEFING REPORT: MAPC special agents met with new regional office director
x and staff assistant x. Meeting mood was cordial.

MAPC agents introduced the coalition, our 3-point platform, organizational
members, and strong support from individuals (150-200 people at general
meetings, an estimated 5000 individual members). We thanked the Senator for
his support of anti-racist resolutions (in the wake of the attacks; everyone
voted yes...), and then got down to business.

We detailed current "anti-terrorism" legislation and our concerns regarding
it, especially highlighting the "Uniting and Strengthening of America Act"
(S.1510), an especially scary measure which may be voted on by the Senate as
soon as this week. Among other things, the "U.S.A. Act" would allow
indefinite detention of non-citizens (even if they've won immigration
hearings), expand the federal government's ability to conduct secret
searches, extend the ability to conduct warrant-less internet and phone
surveillance to anyone if "relevant to an ongoing investigation", etc.

We also called on the Senator to support the establishment of an
International Criminal Court, and to oppose the U.S. Servicemembers
Protection Act (S.857), which would actively oppose the ICC, levy sanctions
against other countries signing the ICC charter, and provide the Prez with
the authority to "take any measures necessary" to free U.S. citizens
detained against their will by the ICC (!!!).

Kohl staff were not able to provide us with the Senator's stance on this
legislation, but will report back to us. They will relay the extensive
meeting notes they took to the DC office, and contact us with information on
the Senator's stance on S.1510, the ICC/ S.857. They will also provide us
with names and contact info for the relevant DC aides to contact regarding
each issue we discussed. For interested readers, the general phone # for
Kohl's DC office is 202-224-5623. We will share the other info with you once
we receive it.

Kohl's local staff also said they would relay info on MAPC to local people
who call the office to express pro-peace views. They also told us that,
except for the first day or so after the Sept 11 attacks, the many calls to
the local office have been overwhelmingly pro-peace! (Hey, join the
bandwagon. The phone # for the local office is 264-5338.)

We left with the office written materials on MAPC, news reports on Sunday's
rally, an article on the ICC (in the current issue of Ms. - check it out),
and MAPC member x's recent Badger-Herald editorial on the
complexity of getting involved with Afghanistan's politics.

MISSION: infiltrate U.S. Senator Herb ("nobody's senator but yours") Kohl's
office, spewing peace-nic rhetoric and demanding action to protect community
members of color and Muslim-Americans, and to protect our civil liberties.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! 08:00 hours to 08:45 hours, Tuesday, Oct 9, year 2001
C.E.

SPECIAL MAPC AGENTS: x, x, x, x, x (x) x

DEBRIEFING REPORT: MAPC special agents met with new regional office director
x and staff assistant x. Meeting mood was cordial.

MAPC agents introduced the coalition, our 3-point platform, organizational
members, and strong support from individuals (150-200 people at general
meetings, an estimated 5000 individual members). We thanked the Senator for
his support of anti-racist resolutions (in the wake of the attacks; everyone
voted yes...), and then got down to business.

We detailed current "anti-terrorism" legislation and our concerns regarding
it, especially highlighting the "Uniting and Strengthening of America Act"
(S.1510), an especially scary measure which may be voted on by the Senate as
soon as this week. Among other things, the "U.S.A. Act" would allow
indefinite detention of non-citizens (even if they've won immigration
hearings), expand the federal government's ability to conduct secret
searches, extend the ability to conduct warrant-less internet and phone
surveillance to anyone if "relevant to an ongoing investigation", etc.

We also called on the Senator to support the establishment of an
International Criminal Court, and to oppose the U.S. Servicemembers
Protection Act (S.857), which would actively oppose the ICC, levy sanctions
against other countries signing the ICC charter, and provide the Prez with
the authority to "take any measures necessary" to free U.S. citizens
detained against their will by the ICC (!!!).

Kohl staff were not able to provide us with the Senator's stance on this
legislation, but will report back to us. They will relay the extensive
meeting notes they took to the DC office, and contact us with information on
the Senator's stance on S.1510, the ICC/ S.857. They will also provide us
with names and contact info for the relevant DC aides to contact regarding
each issue we discussed. For interested readers, the general phone # for
Kohl's DC office is 202-224-5623. We will share the other info with you once
we receive it.

Kohl's local staff also said they would relay info on MAPC to local people
who call the office to express pro-peace views. They also told us that,
except for the first day or so after the Sept 11 attacks, the many calls to
the local office have been overwhelmingly pro-peace! (Hey, join the
bandwagon. The phone # for the local office is 264-5338.)

We left with the office written materials on MAPC, news reports on Sunday's
rally, an article on the ICC (in the current issue of Ms. - check it out),
and MAPC member x's recent Badger-Herald editorial on the
complexity of getting involved with Afghanistan's politics.

Dear friends around the world,


The events of this day cause every thinking person to stop their daily
lives, whatever is going on in them, and to ponder deeply the larger
questions of life.  We search again for not only the meaning of life, but
the purpose of our individual and collective experience as we have created
it -and we look earnestly for ways in which we might recreate ourselves
anew as a human species, so that we will never treat each other this way
again.

The hour has come for us to demonstrate at the highest level our most
extraordinary thought about Who We Really Are.  There are two possible
responses to what has occurred today. The first comes from love, the second
from fear.

If we come from fear we may panic and do things-as individuals and as
nations-that could only cause further damage. If we come from love we will
find refuge and strength, even as we provide it to others.

This is the moment of your ministry. This is the time of teaching. What you
teach at this time, through your every word and action right now, will
remain as indelible lessons in the hearts and minds of those whose lives
you touch, both now, and for years to come.

We will set the course for tomorrow, today.  At this hour.  In this moment.
 Let us seek not to pinpoint blame, but to pinpoint cause.  Unless we take
this time to look at the cause of our experience, we will never remove
ourselves from the experiences it creates.  Instead, we will forever live
in fear of retribution from those within the human family who feel
aggrieved, and, likewise, seek retribution from them.

To us the reasons are clear.  We have not learned the most basic human
lessons.  We have not remembered the most basic human truths.  We have not
understood the most basic spiritual wisdom.  In short, we have not been
listening to God, and because we have not, we watch ourselves do ungodly
things.

The message we hear from all sources of truth is clear: We are all one.
That is a message the human race has largely ignored.  Forgetting this
truth is the only cause of hatred and war, and the way to remember is
simple: Love this and every moment.

If we could love even those who have attacked us, and seek to understand
why they have done so, what then would be our response? Yet if we meet
negativity with negativity, rage with rage, attack with attack, what then
will be the outcome?

These are the questions that are placed before the human race today.  They
are questions that we have failed to answer for thousands of years.
Failure to answer them now could eliminate the need to answer them at all.

If we want the beauty of the world that we have co-created to be
experienced by our children and our children's children, we will have to
become spiritual activists right here, right now, and cause that to happen.
We must choose to be at cause in the matter.

So, talk with God today. Ask God for help, for counsel and advice, for
insight and for strength and for inner peace and for deep wisdom. Ask God
on this day to show us how to show up in the world in a way that will cause
the world itself to change.  And join all those people around the world who
are praying right now, adding your Light to the Light that dispells all
fear.

That is the challenge that is placed before every thinking person today.
Today the human soul asks the question: What can I do to preserve the
beauty and the wonder of our world and to eliminate the anger and
hatred-and the disparity that inevitably causes it - in that part of the
world which I touch?

Please seek to answer that question today, with all the magnificence that
is You.  What can you do TODAY...this very moment?  A central teaching in
most spiritual traditions is:  What you wish to experience, provide for
another.  Look to see, now, what it is you wish to experience-in your own
life, and in the world. Then see if there is another for whom you may be
the source of that.  If you wish to experience peace, provide peace for
another.  If you wish to know that you are safe, cause another to know that
they are safe.  If you wish to better understand seemingly incomprehensible
things, help another to better understand.

If you wish to heal your own sadness or anger, seek to heal the sadness or
anger of another.

Those others are waiting for you now. They are looking to you for guidance,
for help, for courage, for strength, for understanding, and for assurance
at this hour.  Most of all, they are looking to you for love.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
