The Dominican Republic has denaturalized its citizens of Haitian ancestry in violation of its own constitution and human rights norms. We must stand up for the powerless victims in this case.

Stand with Senator Murphy and tell Congress to let diplomacy work. Last November, the U.S. and our partners in the international community reached a breakthrough agreement with Iran. The so-called Joint Plan of Action paved the way for a comprehensive deal that would remove both the threat of an Iranian nuclear weapon and the potential for a U.S.-Iran military confrontation. The deadline to reach a final agreement is November 24. This is our chance to solve one of America’s greatest security concerns without dropping a bomb. But that's not stopping some in Congress from trying to kill the deal before it's even finalized. Opponents of diplomacy are mobilizing to undermine the final hour of talks. S. 2650, a bill sponsored by Senator Bob Corker (R-TN), would tie the hands of our negotiators, cut off funding for inspections, and push Iran away from the negotiating table. The last time America listened to voices like these, we got the Iraq War. We can't let that happen again. We’ve been told that negotiators from the United States, Iran, and five other world powers have drafted an agreement that is 95% done. There is cautious optimism that we can get a deal, but this historic opportunity could still fall apart. A year ago, the U.S. and Iran were barely on speaking terms. Now, we could be just one week away from a long-term deal that not only places Iran's nuclear program under a lock and key, ensuring that Iran cannot get a nuclear bomb, but also does so without having to take even one step toward another war in the Middle East. That's diplomacy at work. Please support this historic opportunity to win without war. Watch Senator Murphy's speech: http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4514687/sen-murphy-supports-iran-diplomacy.

The Administration has requested $5 billion in new funding for the new war in Iraq and Syria. But Congress has not yet debated and voted on an authorization for the use of military force [1], and budget watchdog groups say the Pentagon can easily find the money in the massive budgets it already has. [2] Urge your Representative and Senators to oppose any new funding for war in Iraq and Syria until Congress has debated and voted on an authorization for the use of force and the Pentagon has explained why it needs more money on top of the massive budgets it already has, by signing our petition.

FREE JOURNALIST DAVID TAM BAYOH. Democracy in Sierra Leone will only flourish when there is freedom of speech.

Many Africans are recruited as domestic workers in Arab and Middle Eastern countries in search of a better life for them and their families. Many of them are brutally beaten and killed every year. The power of social media can help highlight this cruelty. We will try and action African and World leaders to take action. Worst offenders are Saudi Arabia and Israel.

This logic runs against the fact that ISIS started & grew in areas controlled by these "moderate rebels" and drew on fighters & local commanders defecting to its ranks with their weapons, some of which supplied by the West and our "allies" Saudi Arabia, Turkey & Qatar. This trend continues today with hundreds, possibly thousands, of "moderate rebels" joining the Al-Nusra front (another Al-Qaeda group) in NW Syria just in the past few days. The US needs to change its course of action regarding Syria and must choose a way of diplomacy and dialogue with new and willing partners instead of intervention and war. Trying to destabilize the existing government only serves to attract foreign militant extremist groups, such as ISIS, which in turn destabilize the region and create an environment of hostility and backlash against civilians and American citizens. Assad may be a dictator, but he had successfully outlawed all terrorist groups in Syria and protected minorities, including Christians, whose very existence is now threatened by ISIS and their affiliates. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar (our allies) are a basic part of the problem, with wealthy individuals & groups in those countries funding ISIS. Stopping all forms of financial aid and military support to the rebels and ISIS from the US, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Jordan, and Qatar would be the logical thing to do.  Please take action to help stop this. We need to become part of the solution and not part of the problem.

I am not starting the petition. I am just writing this petition to add to the petition to all the others that have already been started. Barack Obama has a lot on his plate and this will add Much more to his agenda. I am asking Mr. Obama NOT To Sign anything that will Split Jerusalem. It is also a shame that Jerusalem has been through so much over the years, and when You Read A Bible It will tell you that is God's Country. I believe it is totally against God's will to treat his Holy Land with such disrespect. This world God's gave us is Going to Hell in a Hand Basket. Do Not Split Jerusalem it will turn around and bite you if you do. May God Bless Jerusalem and it's people...What if it was the United States that was going to be split. The thought of it breaks my Heart. Yes It will effect Me, My Family, and the Greatest Nation on Earth.

I deployed twice to Afghanistan and I served with local national interpreters who risk their lives to provide an invaluable service to our troops. They risked their lives for American forces, and as a result their families have become permanent targets of insurgents. We need to stand up and protect those who protected our service members by allowing them to obtain visas to enter the US.

U.S. negotiators are facing a November 24 deadline to try to conclude a comprehensive agreement with Iran on constraining its nuclear program. The New York Times recently reported [1] that the White House has decided to try to avoid in the near future a Congressional vote on any agreement reached with Iran, using the President’s power – granted by Congress – to suspend U.S. sanctions on Iran, rather than seeking legislation to repeal them. The U.S. Treasury Department has concluded that President Obama has the legal authority to suspend the vast majority of U.S. sanctions on Iran without seeking a vote by Congress. But some Members of Congress, like Republican Senator Mark Kirk and Republican Senator John Cornyn, want to derail President Obama’s efforts to achieve a diplomatic agreement. [2] President Obama and Secretary of State Kerry will have a brief window of opportunity after the U.S. election in November to negotiate an agreement – a window of opportunity that may not come again. [3] When President Obama and Secretary of State Kerry negotiated the interim nuclear deal with Iran, Senator Warren [4] and Senator Sanders [5] were early supporters. Former Secretary of State Clinton attacked the deal through surrogates [6], only finally embracing the deal [7] when opponents of the deal were about to concede. [8] If key Democratic leaders don’t support President Obama’s diplomacy, an agreement with Iran will be much less likely. Urge these three key Democratic leaders to support President Obama’s diplomacy with Iran by signing our petition. References: http://www.justforeignpolicy.org/node/1567

UN envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura has warned that 12,000 or so civilians still in or near Kobane, including 700 mainly elderly people in Kobane's center, "will most likely be massacred" by ISIS if the town falls to ISIS jihadists. De Mistura called on Turkey "to support the deterrent actions of the coalition through whatever means from their own territory," and appealed to Turkey to "allow the flow of volunteers at least, and their equipment to be able to enter the city to contribute to a self-defense operation." Urge President Obama and Members of Congress to do everything in their power to pressure Turkey to stop the massacre of Syrian Kurdish civilians in Kobane by signing our petition.

To call on the coalition forces against the IS and the broader international community to take immediate action to prevent an impending disaster by supporting the Kurds in their fight for self-defense in Kobani.

[TYPO correction to sentence above- corroborate not collaborate] On 21 April 2004, Vanunu was released from 18 years behind bars [convicted of treason and espionage for providing photographic proof of Israel's WMD Facility to London's SUNDAY TIMES in 1986] to 24/7 surveillance and ten years of struggle through the Supreme Court appealing for his right to leave Israel. Vanunu said, “When Johnson became president, he made an agreement with Israel that two senators would come every year to inspect. Before the senators would visit, the Israelis would build a wall to block the underground elevators and stairways. From 1963 to ’69, the senators came, but they never knew about the wall that hid the rest of the Dimona from them. “Nixon stopped the inspections and agreed to ignore the situation. As a result, Israel increased production. In 1986, there were over two hundred bombs. Today, they may have enough plutonium for ten bombs a year.” https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/479363 In April 1999, thirty-six members of the US House of Representatives signed a letter calling for Mordechai Vanunu's release from prison because they believed "we have a duty to stand up for men and women like Mordechai Vanunu who dare to articulate a brighter vision for humanity." President Clinton responded with a public statement expressing concern for Vanunu and the need for Israel and other non-parties to the Non-Proliferation Treaty to adhere to it and accept IAEA safeguards. http://www.eileenfleming.org/index.php/vanunus-freedom-of-speech A few weeks after his Freedom of Speech Trial began in March 2006, Vanunu taped this message to then Senator Hillary Clinton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Omq-QG7isA In September 2014, TNT’s Petition To Israel: “We are not free until Vanunu is FREE” was mailed to Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Rivlin, Supreme Court President, Interior Minister and enshrined in “The Vanunu Legend Israel’s Nuclear Whistleblower’s Struggle for Freedom” https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/479363 We encourage you, your staff, FBI, CIA, NSA for reading it in hope for audacious leadership.
