STOP THE WAR - BRING THE TROOPS HOME
Called by East Oxford Stop the War Coalition
TUES 25th Jan, 7,30 pm, East Oxford Community Centre
Speakers: Lindsey German - Stop the War Coalition national convenor
Councillor John Tanner - Labour against the War
Jake Sanders - Green Party parliamentary spokesperson for East Oxford
Nuala Young - CND,local peace activist
John Lister - RESPECT coalition
All Welcome, especially - but by no means limited to - those living and
working in East Oxford.
The planned elections in Iraq this month show no sign of ending the
bloodshed - even the Iraqi 'government' admits that there are some
200,000 insurgents and sympathisers resisting US occupation - that's
more than the entire US military presence. Meanwhile, as refugees begin
to return to the rubble of Fallujah,reports are beginning to come out that
the US 'liberation' of that city was in fact a massacre,with many
civilians among the dead. The only people set to benefit from the
situation in Iraq are the US multinationals poised to carve up the
economy.
For all these reasons, we need to strengthen the anti-war movement,and
build for the planned day of direct action against the occupation on
15th February and the global day of protest on March 19th.

Having said that, it is really necessary for people coming to a meeting of a local grassroots antiwar group to have to sit and listen to Lindsey German and co drone on
and on? I don't know about anyone else but the prospect certainly puts me off!
