Due to the despair of the Iraqi people at the apparently never ending sanctions, relations have broken down between Iraq and the UN arms inspectorate UNSCOM. The US is preparing for a new round of war and the Emergency Committee on Iraq is preparing a response which aims to neutralise the previously rock solid British support for Clinton and Albright's military adventurism. ... Speakers invited include Harold Pinter, Tariq Ali, Tony Benn, Diane Abbott, Tam Dalyell, Dr Rana Kabani, Harry Cohen, Ken Cameron, Tracey Emin, Andy de la Tour, Cardinal Thomas Winning, Sabah Al Mukhtar, Laith Hayali, Seumas Milne & George Galloway." ffi: 0171 219 2874 -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a discussion list run by Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq.
