Quaker Responses to the Terrorist Attacks on the USA
and the "War on Terrorism"

In 1660, Quakers presented a declaration of peace to King Charles II of England, saying, in part:

We utterly deny all outward wars and strife and
fighting with outward weapons to any end and
under any pretense whatever.
This is our testimony to the whole world.

Below are various links to Quaker statements and resources re September 11th and its aftermath. In particular see the CFSC discussion forum and links page for a diverse range of resources on these issues. You can suggest links and you can participate in the dialogue on the forum.
