As well as characterising modern-day imperialism and specific struggles, we will be discussing  such questions as – why do we prioritise campaigning about certain national oppressions over others?; why are the tactics of the Stop the War Coalition so conservative, and how can we overcome them?; what is the relationship between international solidarity and our critical distance from particular national movements?

Speakers include the Israeli socialist Moshé Machover, a speaker from the Tamil cause and an activist involved in an anti-capitalist caucus in the Gaza solidarity movement.

The meeting will take place from 7pm on the 11th at the Plough, on Museum St, near Tottenham Court Road tube.Email uncaptiveminds@gmail.com to register your interest – more details to follow shortly.

Moshé has suggested that those attending may be interested in reading Israelis and Palestinians: Conflict and Resolution and Resolution of The Israeli ­ Palestinian conflict: A socialist viewpoint, both of which can be downloaded here.
