Public Meeting, March 21: Shock and Awe 10 years on

ipan meetingThe Independent and Peaceful Australia Network (IPAN) invites you to the following events. Just Peace is a founding member of IPAN  www.ipan.org.au
Key note speaker Donna Mulhearn has just returned from Iraq where she has done research and documentation of the war crimes committed in Iraq. The seige of Falluja is central to her research.
As Australian governments of both political parties eagerly accept the United States of America’s wish to use our country as a military base- we need to remember and remind others of the Iraq, Afghanistan experience where hundreds of thousands have died or are casualties through injury, contamination, birth defects and miscarriages. Are we prepared to follow them yet again to possibly wage war on the people of Iran or China?

7pm, Thursday March 21st, QLd Council of Unions building, 14 Peel St, South Brisbane
