Afghanistan - Exit with Honor
A new initiative has been launched out of the US to put pressure on world leaders to do better with regards to the current crisis in Afghanistan. Take a look first at this video and then follow up to the website and petition. Here's the #ExitWithHonor video.
All of this is part of an International Religious Freedom Round Table campaign on Afghanistan. It has created an Emergency Afghanistan Task Force and alongside the video we have a new website ExitWithHonor.org. Take a look and sign on to our multi-faith letter at www.exitwithhonor.org/irf-roundtable
Also please support the public petition at www.ExitWithHonor.org
