Peace Mission to Yugoslavia From: "End the Arms Race" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Urgent! Peace Mission to Yugoslavia Date: Tue, 18 May 1999 Humanitarian and Fact-finding Mission to Yugloslavia End the Arms Race, working in conjunction with a medical mission from St. Sava Serbian Orthodox Church, is sending a team to Yugoslavia later this week. The team will travel throughout the country delivering medicine and medical supplies to nine hospitals in the Kosovo and Serbian regions. End the Arms Race President, Peter Coombes, along with documentary videographer, Mary Frymire, will document the destruction of the war against Yugoslavia. They will meet with and interview people with the assistance of their guide, Dr. Sanja Savic Kallesoe. The team will be entering Yugoslavia and carrying a message of peace on behalf of all of us who are opposed to this war. They are making the trip at great personal risk - because of their deep commitment to peace, their concern for the well-being of the people of Yugoslavia, and their firm belief that we must take control of our own information gathering so that the full truth about this war can be captured on video and known to people throughout the world. We need your help and support for this mission. If anyone can help us to locate a geiger counter, water testing equipment or vials for transporting water samples, or a global positioning monitor, we would deeply appreciate your guidance or assistance. If you have any suggestions on other tests or activities that could be undertaken on this trip, please let us know ASAP. A mission of this nature is costly - and funds will be required to edit and produce the video upon the team's return. If you or your organization are able to make a contribution towards this mission, please send it to: End the Arms Race, 405 - 825 Granville Street, Vancouver, B.C. V6Z 1K9 Tel: (604) 687-3223 Fax: (604) 687-3277. All of those making contributions of $100.00 or more will be listed in the video produced by End the Arms Race as supporters of the project (i.e. both the mission and the video). We sincerely hope that we can count on your support for this important project. Jillian Skeet Coordinator P.S. For those of you who do not know, End the Arms Race has produced two highly acclaimed videos: Deep Water Danger (narrated by David Suzuki) and Bombs Away (narrated by Murray Dobbin). We also produced a short 5 minute video of the Citizen's Weapons Inspection of the Bangor nuclear base in Washington state.
