Wikileaks: Challenging the US War Drive
 
>> What do the Wikileaks documents reveal to the social justice and antiwar
movement?
>> What is the secrecy of the ruling class all about and why is fighting for
transparency important for the antiwar movement?
>> Why do we need to demand that the government of Canada “open the books” and
“open the files” and why is it important to connect the fight for democratic rights to
the struggle against war and occupation?
