There's more. A Web site and a number to call.

John Carlson won't be calling. The KVI-570 AM radio host says he's tired of hearing only the other side.

"The demonstrators, Jim McDermott going to Baghdad, Senator Murray's comments about Osama Bin Laden," says Carlson.

And to counter what Carlson says are all the pro peace commercials featuring Hollywood stars, John Carlson and KVI Radio raised $130,000 from listeners for an "Anti Saddam" TV ad campaign which began Friday. (See links below to view the ad.)

"I believe John Carlson has every much a right to express his view as much as I do," says Vietnam veteran Charles Herrmann.

Herrmann has put up $30,000 of his own money to put an 'anti-war' ad in local newspapers.

"I feel that's what my moral obligation to the victims of all wars is, but especially because of the experience I had in Vietnam," says Herrmann.

Herrmann, who is also a Seattle attorney, believes war should be a last resort and that the U.S. doesn't have enough international support yet.

Both Herrmann and Carlson agree that the media play a vital role in shaping public opinion. So now as the countdown to a possible war begins, the fierce battle to capture the hearts and minds of Americans intensifies.

"This is now going to be a dialogue and a debate. Not a monologue," says Carlson.

"The great debate is healthy for our society," says Herrmann.

A debate that will get more heated if and when we go to war.
