IPT Report on Civilian Casualties (with photos)

"If we begin soon, the peacemaking community could recruit, prepare, and train thousands of nonviolent activists from throughout the world to go to the next target for a U.S. war. This effort could help strengthen the global peace-and-justice movement and, perhaps, actually help stop the next war. Prospects for success would be enhanced if we could elicit the participation of prominent individuals who would add authority to the project and help mobilize thousands of people willing to stand in harm's way."

Wade calls to let us know that all IPT members in Baghdad are fine and are planning to stay in Baghdad indefinately. The US military is now guarding the Palestine Hotel and the Al Fanar hotel (where all IPT members are staying.) Otherwise the US forces seem to be making no effort to stop or stem the widespread looting and violence. Even hospitals are being looted. The IPT delegates have been interacting with US military in front of their hotel and these interactions have been very friendly, "extraordinary" as Wade put it. Wade and several other IPT delegates will be sending diary/journal entries soon regarding these interactions.

April 10, 7:15am PDT
We receive a message from Wade letting us know that all IPT delgates are doing fine and that he'll be in Baghdad for at least the next few days.

April 9, Noon PDT
The Chicago IPT Office receives a satellite phone call from Kathy Kelly in Baghdad. Kathy says that all 13 IPT delegates in Baghdad are still doing fine.
