The Center sponsors scholarly research and leads activist campaigns to advance policies based on multilateralism, demilitarization, democracy, and respect for human rights.

Here's something on Ms. Priest's husband's organization:

Center for International Policy
From SourceWatch

Center for International Policy (http://www.ciponline.org/) (CIP) was "founded in 1975, in the wake of the Vietnam War, by former diplomats and peace activists. This mix of those from inside the government and those from outside by choice has shaped both our methodology and our agenda.

"The Center has led or played a vital role in an impressive number of citizens' initiatives. Working closely with allies in Congress, including two members who were to become the Center's co-chairs, Tom Harkin and Don Fraser, the Center campaigned to make sure that a government's human rights record became a factor in allocating foreign aid. In the 1980s the Center staff became the Washington advocates for Costa Rican president Oscar Arias's peace plan for Central America.

"In the 1990s the Center attracted a number of senior diplomats to its staff and expanded its agenda to include reform of the nation's intelligence agencies. We continued to play an important role in Central America's post-conflict reconciliation, the effort to end the counter-productive isolation of Cuba, and efforts to limit military assistance to the Western Hemisphere, especially Colombia.

"This work continues today, along with a robust program on security in south and northeast Asia, cutting-edge work on illegal financial flows, and a new effort to increase citizen participation in Central America."

This work continues today, along with a robust program on nuclear proliferation in south and east Asia, cutting-edge work on illegal financial flows, and a new effort to promote environmental protection and increase citizen participation in Central America.

Funding Sources

The Center for International Policy is proud to maintain a $4.47 million annual budget free of funding from the U.S. government, or any other government or political party. Supported only by individual donors and private foundations, the Center has stayed steadfastly true to its founding goals.

Foundations currently supporting the Center's work include:

* The Arca Foundation
* The Christopher Reynolds Foundation
* Compton Foundation
* The Educational Foundation of America
* Ford Foundation

* General Service Foundation
* National Lawyers' Guild
* Samuel Rubin Foundation
* Schooner Foundation
* Stewart R. Mott Charitable Trust

(((There's GOT to be Soros and Teresa Heinz $$ in there somewhere.)))

Budget Information

The Center for International Policy's estimated budget for 2006 is $4.47 million. Roughly one-fifth of our income comes from the above foundations; the rest comes from thousands of individual donors, with a small portion from contract services. The Center is very grateful for the generous support it continues to receive from people who share our goals and values.

I think it's okay to be anti-war, but it's wrong to be anti-war in a way which endangers your fellow countrymen. It seems that too many pacifists end up, in effect, helping our enemies.
