WORLD AGAINST WAR CONFERENCE, LONDON, DECEMBER 1 2007
Dear Brother/Sister
This is to formally notify your organisation, as part of the global
movement against war, that the Stop the War Coalition in Britain will be
holding the above conference here in London and would like you to be
represented at it.
This conference follows on from the highly successful International Peace
Conference we held in December 2005, which was attended by delegates from
peace movements from many countries, as well as by representatives of the
Iraqi people. That conference played an important part in developing the
international dimension of our movement, in establishing stronger links
between our campaigns and in allowing the voices of the Iraqi people to be
heard.
The Stop the War Coalition believes it would now be useful to hold a
further conference, with the aim of broadening our work still further. We
are therefore proposing that the conference this December, as well as
maintaining a clear focus on our key demands for a complete end to the
occupation of Iraq and opposition to any attack against Iran, also look at
the broader struggle against war around the world and for independence
against the threats of the US administration.
As well as inviting representatives of the Iraqi people once again, we
shall also be seeking the participation of representatives of Palestinian,
Lebanese, Pakistani, Venezuelan and Cuban movements, amongst others, and
looking to highlight the continuing occupation of Afghanistan. We are
also hoping for the strong participation of anti-war movements in the USA,
Canada and across Europe (including those in Poland and the Czech Republic
opposing the Bush missile defence?plan).
We shall send you further details of our proposals as soon as possible,
including a list of invited speakers, and we would of course be most
grateful for any suggestions your organisation might like to make
regarding the agenda and format of the conference. We would also hope to
circulate the drafts of any proposed declarations that the conference may
be asked to consider well in advance, for your input.
At this stage we would like you to indicate whether you would be able to
send delegates to London. The Stop the War Coalition will endeavour to
organise accommodation in London for those who require it.
We look forward to hearing from you.
In solidarity
Tony Benn (president Stop the War Coalition)
Andrew Murray (Chair Stop the War Coalition)
Lindsey German (Convenor Stop the War Coalition)
