International Conference

Chianciano Terme, Province of Siena, Tuscany, Italy
Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 March, 2007

The national assembly of the promoting forces, which met last Sunday in Florence, decided to finally convene the international conference: "Against the Occupation, with the Resistance - with a Just Peace in Iraq, Lebanon and Palestine".

After the struggle of 2005, when the Italian government impeded the conference on order of the US, after the success of the campaign for the visas which seem to be granted this time, and with the renewed interest of different sectors of the Arab Resistance movement time has come to hold this important international convention.

On March 24/25 a wide range of Iraqi, Palestinian and Lebanese representatives (and other Arab countries) will unite. In this way we want to lend those a voice also on European soil who resist the imperialist aggressions. It will be the first time that such a conference is being held in Europe.

It will be an occasion to strengthen the solidarity of the anti-war movement with the peoples who are victims of this war of aggression led by the US. At the same time it will offer the possibility to better understand the situation in Iraq, Palestine and Lebanon by listening to the experiences of whose who resist and who are silenced by the corporate media.

In the near future we will publish the programme of the conference as well as the modalities of inscription and participation.
