It has now been confirmed that Iraq will be joining the Earthdance 2002, Global Peace celebrations. The news came today from international peace troubadour James Twyman who, inspired by the Earthdance peace event, will travel to Bhagdad to join in the "prayer for peace" with citizens of Iraq on Earthdance day, October 12th.
James has gained wide international recognition for his "songs of peace" missions to war torn countries and has performed for the United Nations in New York and the State Capitol. James comments..
"..This is the second time the government of Iraq has invited me to Baghdad when the threat of war seemed imminent. In 1998 millions of people from at least 80 countries focused their prayers on Iraq, and three days later a peaceful solution was achieved. This year the worldwide vigil is being coordinated with another international event called Earth Dance, a peace initiative being held in 106 cities around the world...." Tags
