The secretive Rendon Group [3], run by self-proclaimed "information warrior" John Rendon, has a long history of accompanying the CIA and Pentagon into battle. Now they have launched a project called "Empower Peace [4]," through which they are calling on young people throughout the world to "help us develop an International Youth Pledge of Peace [5]." Does this mean they've joined the anti-war protests? Not exactly. Empower Peace wants people "not to refer the current political situation going on in the world today but rather focus and emphasize on the importance of breaking down cultural barriers in order to achieve peace."
