I have found a wonderful site : In communion Website of the Orthodox Peace Fellowship
In communion – Peace from Above includes an Orthodox Resource Book on War, Peace and Nationalism
I am still exploring it (and will still probably be exploring in a year or so!!!) but what I have read so far is very helpful.

The URL is : http://www.incommunion.org/resources/PeaceFromAbove.asp

"God is not a God of war and fighting. Make war and fighting to cease, both that which is against him, and that which is against your neighbor. Be at peace with all people, consider with what character God saves you." -- St. John Chrysostom

This site also gives you practical guide-lines on what you can do personally to help the peace effort e.g. pray, fast, join peaceful demonstrations, study and discuss the issues, protest against one-sided reporting . take part in merciful activities designed to help the victims of war, etc.

I also found another terrific site where you can download beautiful recordings of Orthodox hymns in midi or MP3. http://en.liturgy.ru/zvuk/zvuk.php
The choir of the Saviour-Transfiguration Cathedral.
