Voices of Occupation and Resistance
Speakers from Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq & Afghanistan
Invading other countries is a habit Blair has caught. He lied shamelessly to
get us into a war in Iraq, now descended into Hell. Now another country,
Lebanon, has been smashed up by Israel as part of the West's plan for a 'New
Middle East'. Afghanistan is largely under the control of murderous,
pro-Western warlords opposed by a rising insurgency. Palestine remains the
central issue in the war of conquest the US and its proxy, Israel, is
spreading across a broad swathe of the Middle East and beyond.
Palestinian: Dr Hussein Jabareen
Lebanese: Speaker confirmed from Lebanese Community
Iraqi: Mahmood Al Sabbagh
Afghan: Mohammed Asif
(Asif's cousin is Governor of Helmand Province where 3,500 British troops
are trying to crush Afghan resistance fighters. Asif is uniquely
well-informed to inform Scottish people what Tony Blair has got us involved
in, yet again, in a country the West worked so hard to devastate.)
