		<description><![CDATA[As committed Christian peace activists and members of Pax Christi, the international Catholic peace movement founded in 1945, we congratulate you on your receipt of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize.  We know from your April 5 speech in Prague, your December 10 speech in Oslo, and the deliberative process you followed in deciding on a strategy for Afghanistan that you have wrestled with difficult questions of war and peace during your first year as Commander-in-Chief.  We strongly support your goal of reducing and eventually eliminating nuclear weapons; and we agree that "true security will never come from an endless race for ever-more destructive weapons – true security will come for those who reject them," as you said on December 1 at West Point.]]></description>
