Pacifists will e-mail them, by God! Strong letter to follow.

    THE PACIFIST LEFT ORGANIZES: If the following excerpt from the September 27 newsletter of the left-liberal group ActForChange is any guide, the Taliban need to be very, very scared by the way some activists are gearing up to respond to the September 11 Massacre.

    One suggestion? Write the Taliban ambassador!
    "We have even located a way to contact the only accessible public representative of the Taliban!" the excited activists write. "It remains important to let decision-makers know that we are engaged in civic life and attentive to the responses being made on behalf of the American people ... Please consider the following actions ... Tell the Taliban What You Think. The Taliban has been roundly condemned in the international community for providing a safe haven for Osama bin Laden and other known terrorists in the wake of the attacks on the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon. If you wish to send a message to Mullah Abdul Salam Zaeef, the Taliban Ambassador to Pakistan, calling on the group to turn over bin Laden and ease the oppression of women and relief workers in Afghanistan, ActForChange will print out your e-mail and mail or fax it to him."
    I'm sure you can arrange a flowery American greetings card as well.
