| + | Speaker: Judith Orr (National Officer, Stop the War Coalition). | ||
| - | + | The Stop the War Coalition supports the popular uprisings in the Middle East and North Africa but | |
| - | + | is the struggle in Libya now fundamentally different from the revolutions in | |
| + | Tunesia and Egypt? Should Western intervention be welcomed or has imperialist intervention | ||
| + | been the problem in this area, propping up autocratic regimes? | ||
| + | |||
| + | Judith was in Tahrir Square during the initial protests. Hear and question her on these | ||
| + | histroric events. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Free event. All welcome | ||
