It is kind of senseless to argue with war mongering bigots but since there are some individuals that have decided to make Code Pink an issue I can only say what I know of the group and if there are any peace loving ladies at this forum that have thought about getting involved with a group I would highly recommend Code Pink.
Code Pink is very involved with all aspects of peace from being at congressional hearings to having boots on the ground in the Middle East.
They are active throughout the United States I would invite you to visit their website find a local chapter and get involved, what greater cause can there be then to work for peace.
From Code Pink Website...What is CODEPINK?
CODEPINK is a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end U.S. funded wars and occupations, to challenge militarism globally, Shine a light on Syrian women & girls!
After two years and ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND KILLED, they throw out that crumb? Of course the clueless sheep and sycophants jump on, "oh they are just so helpful and impactful, thank goodness we have them fighting for our rights..."
If you think that this one item - no doubt forced upon them after two years of doing nothing - while their site is overflowing with anti-israel, anti-US propagandist crap is going to exonerate them, you are quite mistaken. I know people who called them for years asking why they made no noise and did nothing about syria or iran - and their response was: "we only focus on US-initiated conflicts." I guess their hypocratic BS couldn't hold up forever.
One item changes nothing about them, or who and what they are - filth.

Now everyone who disagrees with your far left garbage is a "war bigot." LOL, the left is just so funny sometimes...

Yes, recommended to all low IQ morons with no facts, history or understanding of anything besides obtaining more publicity for lowlifes like medea benjamin, a turd in every sense of the word.

Actually, just those involving the US and Israel, all dictatorships and mass slaughterers like those in iran, syria, china, africa - they don't bother with them. Their agenda is anti-US/anti-Israel, nothing more.

Yes, definitely check out their web site, and compare the volume of anti-Israel, anti-US events, actions, letters, etc, to those of the genocidal regimes like in africa, syria, iran, china, russia, etc. Look under their press release list:

Onward towards justice,
Alli, Dooler, Medea, Noor, Rooj, Tighe, and the DC team
Code Pink, had the grand idea to dress as vaginas during their activities in Tampa.
I believe this was at the Republican National Convention in support of women's reproduction rights that the good old boys of the Republican party want to regulate.
I fully support women's reproduction rights along with countless millions of other Americans, if you care to discuss women's reproductive rights I suggest you start a separate thread and do not derail the topic of this thread.

CODEPINK is a women-initiated grassroots peace and social justice movement "working to end U.S. funded wars and occupations"
Except, as you pointed out, that IS NOT what their website claims. They state "GLOBAL MILITARISM." That does not sound like it is only US/Israel focused. Further, no where in their literature does it say anything about being focused on Israel - except that that's pretty much all these lowlife frauds actually do.
If you would like to speak in person to the leadership of Code Pink face to face about your concerns
Just make sure you agree with everything they say - otherwise they hang up on you or walk away when you point out their hypocritical stances or lies.
They are fakes, frauds masquerading as "human rights activists" when they are really anti-US/anti-Israel far left trash.
