Wage Peace: Afghanistan

AFSC’s Afghanistan campaign works to take action to urge Congress and the Obama administration to completely withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan and end the war with a commitment to repair and reconstruction.  The campaign rests on a vision that ends our reliance on military action.  Focusing instead on diplomacy with all parties to the conflict in Afghanistan and in neighboring countries, transparent assistance to support the development of Afghan led civilian institutions, and a commitment to help repair after the damage from so many years of war.  These steps, if taken, can offer Afghans hope for a future with peace and security.
