Teach Peace Moment

Sign That War Is On The Horizon

On September 26th, the Kyl-Lieberman amendment, classifying Iran's Qods Force as a terrorist organization, passed with a vote of 76-22. Since the US is at war with terrorist organizations this amendment is another step in the direction of war with Iran.

You may recall that we informed people about the Qods Force over two years ago and they are Iran's military equivalent of US Special Forces.

We want you to know that the Senate failed to recognize that even General Petraeus admits Iran's Qods Force no longer operates in Iraq.

See the bottom of this page for the full list of the Senators who voted on the amendment. You can also use our Take Action center or call your Senators at the Capitol Switchboard (202-224-3121).

The Teach Peace Foundation stands against this very dangerous step that is leading to war with Iran.

Help us reach millions of people with our message of peace!

Sincerely, The Teach Peace Team

PS. You may find it interesting that all Internet traffic for www.qodsforce.com is redirected to the Teach Peace Foundation. This means everytime the Qods Force is in the news this helps us get our message of nonviolence broadcast around the world.
