Progressive Caucus of the California Democratic Party and US Tour of Duty to Host Panel on Immediate Withdrawal from Iraq

(Los Angeles, CA)- The Progressive Caucus of the California Democratic Party and US Tour of Duty will present a panel of distinguished speakers from the fields of politics, foreign policy, journalism, and defense, as well as citizen activists, to discuss the immediate withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq. Through this event, which promises to be both lively and thought provoking, the Progressive Caucus hopes to fuel a dialogue within the Democratic Party regarding an immediate end to the occupation of Iraq. The audience participation format of the event is designed to equip attendees with information and action plans that will allow average citizens to facilitate an immediate end to the Iraq conflict. The panel will take place on Saturday, January 28 at 7:00 PM at the end of the quarterly meeting of the Executive Board of the California Democratic Party, in the Ballroom of the Manhattan Beach Marriott, 1400 Parkview Avenue, Manhattan Beach.

Tentatively scheduled to appear on the panel are Scott Ritter, former UN Weapons Inspector, Robert Jensen, Professor of Media Law, Ethics, and Politics at the University of Texas and author of “Citizens of the Empire: The Struggle to Claim Our Humanity”; Stephen Zunes, Professor of Politics and Chair of the Peace and Justice Studies program at the University of San Francisco and the Middle East editor of Foreign Policy in Focus, a think tank dedicated to peace, justice, and environmental protection; former State Department official Ann Wright, who resigned from her high-ranking post in 2003 in protest of the Iraq war; Michael Schwartz, Professor of Sociology and Faculty Director of the Undergraduate College of Global Studies at Stony Brook University and whose books include Radical Politics and Social Structure, and Social Policy and the Conservative Agenda; and AfterDowningStreet.org co-founder and Washington director of Democrats.com and ImpeachPAC.org David Swanson. The discussion will be moderated by radio host and political commentator Steve Young. Panelists will address prepared questions as well as questions from the audience.

In addition to these speakers, the panel will also feature citizen activist Lisa Lubow, who will talk about ways in which ordinary citizens who oppose the war can make their voices heard. This event will be open to the public. Suggested donation is .
