Internship opportunity

Here’s something that came through my email that looks like a great opportunity for students proficient in web design, marketing, Internet research, legal research, editing, writing, grant writing, paralegal, communications and public relations, fundraising, and coalition building.

The Natah Education and Legal Defense Fund is currently seeking interns for the Spring 2008 semester. The fund represents Iraq war victims in various lawsuits. Natah v. Bush, our key case, is the only case to ever ask the President to pay damages to victims of war crimes. Other cases deal with civil rights abuses by U.S. contractors working in Iraq.

Legal action is currently one of the best hopes for remedying U.S. policy regarding Iraq and Iran. Senate filibuster delays legislative changes, and President Bush is likely to veto any limits on the Iraq war. Middle East peace is too important to wait for a new President, and legal action is currently the fastest route to get policy changes and prevent a war with Iran.
