Edited on Fri Aug-08-03 11:35 AM by IkeWarnedUs
Afghanistan. Iraq. What Next?

WAR ON THE WORLD: What's Driving It?
How Do We Step Up Our Resistance to Stop It?

On the 58th Anniversary that the U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the Chicago Not In Our Name Project invites you to a special forum to discuss the Bush Doctrine of endless war and repression. Over the past 9 months, a powerful movement developed in opposition to take on war moves against Iraq. What is the nature of this system we are up against and how can we build on all of our accomplishments? How do we face the new challenges before us as we draw more people into the struggle? Your active participation in the day's discussions is needed!
