This event will be taking place on the traditional and unceded territories of the Tsleil-Waututh (səl̓ilwətaɁɬ), the Musqueam (xʷməθkʷəy̓əm), and the Squamish (Skwxwú7mesh) Coast Salish Nations.

FEATURING:
JOE LOMBARDO – Co-chair of the United National Antiwar Coalition (UNAC) in the United States, via videoconference
ALISON BODINE – Chair, Mobilization Against War & Occupation (MAWO)

On Friday, April 13, 2018, the US, UK and France bombed the sovereign country of Syria with over 130 cruise missiles; an attack justified by the unproven allegation that the Syrian government used chemical weapons against its own people. This bombing was an escalation of the 7 years of a brutal U.S. proxy war against the people of Syria, that has left over half of the country displaced and killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Also, this week, U.S. President Trump pulled out of the Iran Nuclear Agreement - even though the United Nations atomic agency had found that Iran was in full compliance with the 2015 deal. This is a blatant provocation and a dangerous escalation of continued hostilities against Iran for almost four decades.

Mobilization Against War and Occupation (MAWO) invites you to join us for a public forum and discussion to discuss:
>> Why did the US/UK/France attack Syria on April 13?
>> What is the balance sheet of US intervention in Syria over the last 7 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?
>> Why has the US pulled out of the Iran nuclear deal and what will be the consequences?
