On Thursday April 6 2017, the Unites States launched more than 60 cruise missiles against a Syrian airbase under the pretext that they were punishing the Syrian government for allegedly using chemical bombs against their own people. 

In the two days immediately following the assault, people across the US, Canada and around the world took to the streets to demonstrate their opposition to the escalating war drive of the United States government. 

Now more than ever, it is the time for peace-loving people in Vancouver and around the world to come together. We must continue to educate, organize and mobilize against US attacks on Syria and poor and oppressed people all over the Middle East, North Africa and around the world.  

Join the MAWO forum on Tuesday, April 18 to discuss: 
>> What is the balance sheet of US intervention in Syria over the last 6 years?
>> What is the role of Russia and Iran in Syria? 
>> What has been the response of the government of Canada to the expanding US war drive?
>> How must the antiwar movement in Canada and the US respond?
